Massage is usually done for luxury
but it can also be medically helpful. Pregnancy massage is one of the most
beneficial massages. Pregnancy massage is a massaging method or procedure done
during pregnancy or after giving birth. It is important to have pregnancy
massage done by experts to avoid complications and accidents. Experts use
specially designed devices to ensure the general safety of the procedure—which
includes proper positioning and comfortable posture during the pregnancy
massage.
There are only few studies on the
benefits of pregnancy massage. Most women undergoing pregnancy massage during
pregnancy overcome anxiety easily. Physically, pregnancy massage decreases
muscle pains because it improves blood flow. It also decreases chronic
headaches and, generally, prevents headaches from recurring. Relaxation is also
promoted during prenatal massage; helping in alleviating discomfort. During
pregnancy, the weight of the baby changes the woman’s center of gravity putting
more stress on the back, neck, shoulders, and abdomen. The ligaments and joints
are also stressed. For instance, due to the relaxation of the ligaments, pelvic
joints are getting less stable thus changing the woman’s posture. A pregnancy
massage can help a woman cope with these changes. Emotionally, pregnancy
massage improves the release of serotonin and dopamine thus decreasing stress
and improving overall mood.
Pregnancy massage may use usual massaging
technique. A deep tissue massage targets deep muscles and connecting groups by
using firm strokes. This is only done by well-trained masseurs to avoid
accidents and added muscle stress. Since pregnancy causes stress in the
ligaments and joints, a Swedish massage may be used to increase joint mobility.
Swedish massage is incorporated in pregnancy massage by doing long strokes to
muscles. Shiatsu is also incorporated in a pregnancy massage to release the
body’s natural energy. Shiatsu deals with pressure and utilizes acupressure
points to relieve pain and alleviate stress.
Pregnancy massage has many
benefits. Though there are only few studies for its advantages and
disadvantages, proper handling will always result to a quality and relaxing
session. It is important to have a pregnancy massage session with experts. This
is not only to avoid accidents but also to have additional advice while
carrying a baby. It will always be a good purchase to consult with an expert!
