Massage for Pregnant Women
Massages for pregnant women can be of two types; pre-natal and post-natal.
It has been proven that massage therapy during pregnancy can help lower anxiety, reduce symptoms of depression, relieve muscle pain or aches and enhance the health of the newborn.
The pre-natal pregnancy massage regulates your hormones, improves nerve pain, and reduces swelling.
The post-natal massage is usually a light massage where there is no use of knuckles or deep tissue massage techniques. It is provided to help the mother relax and relieve strains of muscles of the lower back and shoulders.
Other benefits of a postnatal massage are; that it helps to remove the remaining blood clots in our uterus, reduces water retention, and increases blood circulation.
