Benefits of Postnatal Massage for New Mothers in Surrey

Postpartum massage isn’t just a treat; it’s a powerful tool for recovery. Here’s how our postnatal massage services in Surrey can benefit you:

  • Improves Range of Motion: Pregnancy can cause your body to lose flexibility. A postnatal massage helps restore your muscles and joints, improving your mobility.
  • Boosts Energy Levels: By decreasing stress and boosting endorphin levels, massage can enhance your energy, helping you feel more like yourself again.
  • Builds Stamina: Massage increases circulation and oxygen flow, boosting your vitality and endurance—crucial for managing the demands of new motherhood.
  • Enhances Blood Circulation: Better blood flow delivers essential nutrients throughout your body, aiding in your recovery.
  • Reduces Postpartum Depression: The release of endorphins and oxytocin during massage can help lift your mood, reducing the risk of postpartum depression.
  • Lowers Blood Pressure: Massage eases stress and promotes relaxation, which can help manage high blood pressure.
  • Alleviates Postpartum Pain: Whether it’s your pelvis, back, or abdomen, a postnatal massage can relieve pain by improving blood flow to inflamed tissues.
  • Supports Better Milk Production: Reducing stress and anxiety through massage can improve your milk flow, making breastfeeding easier.
  • Reduces Swelling: Pregnancy can cause swelling in your legs, ankles, and feet. Massage helps drain excess fluids, reducing this discomfort.
  • Improves Sleep Quality: By promoting the release of serotonin, massage can help you achieve better sleep, essential for your overall health.
  • Provides Much-Needed Relaxation: After the demands of childbirth, a postnatal massage offers you a peaceful moment to relax and be nurtured.

What is Postnatal Massage?

It’s best to wait at least two weeks after giving birth before starting postnatal massage. This allows your body, particularly if you’ve had a caesarean delivery, enough time to heal. Once you feel ready, you can schedule a session that fits into your routine. Whether you had a straightforward delivery or a C-section, our postnatal massage in Surrey is tailored to meet your specific needs.

When to Start Postnatal Massages

It is best for new mothers to wait at least two weeks before having a massage, as this will give the scar enough time to heal and provide an enjoyable experience when seeking professional care.

If you gave birth without problems, you could have a session with me when your schedule allows. You won’t have any worries about opening up wounds that happened during natural childbirth. If you had a cesarean delivery, it is better to wait for a couple pf weeks before doing anything that might damage sensitive skin because the body has not yet wholly recovered.

Target Areas for Postnatal Massage

Every new mother’s body has different needs, so it’s important to communicate with your massage therapist about any areas that need extra care.

Common areas include the back, hips, abdomen, and legs, which can all benefit from a bit of TLC during your postnatal recovery.

When Should You Avoid Post Delivery Massage?

You should not begin a postnatal massage if you still have stitches in your abdomen or incisions from a cesarean section. It is essential to give yourself at least two weeks of healing time before beginning any massage here, and instead, you can start with gentle back massages that can help relieve stress on the body after birth.

Most clients that I see postnatally have a range of areas that need a bit of TLC, so make sure you tell me of your massage therapist which areas of your body are hurting!
