Postnatal massage is a wonderful way to get your body back on track after giving birth. After giving birth, there’s no question that your body has been put under tremendous amounts of stress. Especially in the abdominal and pelvic area where there are many new physical and emotional demands. These experiences – recovering from your pregnancy, delivery (especially with cesarean section) – paired with now caring for your newborn, are all individually major transitions.
Postpartum massage relaxes muscles, increases circulation, and lowers stress hormones, bringing both physical and emotional relief. Some women prefer a light-touch massage, while others opt for a deeper massage that reaches further into the muscles and soft tissues of the body for more complete healing.
