Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
There is no problem in getting a massage at all and rather it is very common to crave for a massage and is beneficial usually.
In case you are not having any pain in back or abdomen after that and all is the same as before then nothing to worry about and get an ultrasound after 10 days.
All the best.

Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
No dear, not an issue usually but still at times you get certain irritant oils or fumes which can cause nausea and pain in abdomen so better to tell them about pregnancy to avoid these things.
Ever since you have no problem after this massage, there is nothing to worry.
Take care.
