I have had chronic back pain for the last 15 years and it has got very bad during pregnancy. My orthopedic consultant suggested doing BET pilates - which has worked out very well for me from my 2nd month (I am now 7 months pregnant). Its basically one to one pilates with a physiotherapist - I would recommend Kym who has young children and understands the demands of pregnancy well! They are based at World Wide House (Des Voeux Road) - tel: 25263706

Also regular massage has helped - the Sutherland Chan centre on Lyndhurst Terrace has a special pregnancy massage cushion so that they can massage while you are lying on your belly comfortably (cushion adjusts to growing belly!). I would recommend Ashley (pls note this is not really relaxing massage, but more therapeutic). Contact tel: 25445838
