Restoration
Postpartum massage can be beneficial both physically and psychologically to any new mother. The purpose of post natal massage is to help restore the body to pre-pregnancy condition and provide relief for soreness and muscle stiffness. Pregnancy and childbirth are hard work, and postpartum massage can help speed your body’s recovery. Muscles used during childbirth can feel overworked, and a new routine of lifting and carrying a baby can cause muscle tension. Sore, tight muscles benefit from post pregnancy massage, as massage can help reduce muscle tension, reduce lactic acid, and speed blood and oxygen delivery to the muscles. This will reduce overall soreness and provide welcome relief and healing for new mothers.
Post pregnancy massage can also address other physical changes that new mothers go through, such as postpartum abdominal weakness, post-episiotomy soreness, lactation and healing from Cesarean section. It can reduce stress hormones, sooth pain and tension in the neck, shoulder and back, and help realign the body after losing pregnancy weight.
Rejuvenation
Another significant benefit of postpartum massage is the psychological and emotional state of well-being massage can provide. New mothers are often faced with extreme fatigue and a rush of new emotions ranging from fear to feeling overwhelmed or even depressed. New mothers appreciate postpartum massage because it is a time when they can relax, renew their energy level and allow someone to care for them. Post natal massage can help restore a healthy emotional balance, leaving a new mother feeling rejuvenated and ready to put renewed energy into caring for her baby.
Relaxation
The combination of changes in the body and the emotional state of a new mother can make post partum massage especially welcome. Motherhood brings significant developments physically and psychologically, as the new mother tries to adjust to hormonal changes, new responsibilities, new routines, and lack of sleep while her body attempts to recover from pregnancy and childbirth. Having a regularly scheduled post natal massage can help speed the physical recovery and soothe the body, providing an opportunity to relax and relieve emotional tension. The relaxation and healing provided by post partum massage can help a new mother feel better equipped to handle the demands of her new role.
