- Scar Tissue from C-sections
- Pelvic Pain
- Fatigue
- Headaches

How Postnatal Massage Acts in the Body? Here is a detailed Physiology
1. Improved Circulation
- Increased Blood Flow: Massage enhances blood flow, delivering oxygen and nutrients to muscles and tissues, aiding recovery.
- Waste Removal: Better circulation flushes out waste products like lactic acid, reducing muscle soreness.
- Reduces Swelling (Edema): Stimulates the lymphatic system to remove excess fluids, reducing postpartum swelling.
2. Hormonal Balance
- Cortisol Reduction: Massage activates the parasympathetic nervous system, lowering stress hormone levels and reducing anxiety.
- Oxytocin and Endorphin Release: Increases the release of oxytocin (for bonding and relaxation) and endorphins (natural painkillers), improving emotional well-being.
3. Muscle Relaxation and Recovery
- Muscle Fiber Realignment: Relaxes muscles, reducing knots and tension, especially in strained areas like the back, neck, and shoulders.
- Relieves Tension and Fatigue: Increases blood flow and reduces lactic acid buildup, easing muscle fatigue.
4. Scar Tissue Healing (C-Section Recovery)
- Breaking Down Adhesions: Improves collagen production, breaking down scar tissue adhesions, and enhancing mobility.
- Tissue Elasticity: Gently stretches and loosens tissues around scars, promoting healing and reducing tightness.
5. Posture and Spinal Alignment
- Corrects Muscle Imbalances: Lengthens tight muscles and strengthens weaker ones, improving posture.
- Spinal Realignment: Releases tension around the spine, reducing back and neck pain from poor posture during baby care.
6. Nervous System and Stress Reduction
- Parasympathetic Nervous System Activation: Slows heart rate, lowers blood pressure, and reduces stress for deep relaxation.
- Pain Gate Theory: Blocks pain signals to the brain by stimulating sensory receptors, reducing pain perception.
7. Lymphatic Drainage and Immune Function
- Enhanced Lymphatic Flow: Massage boosts lymphatic drainage, reducing swelling and removing toxins.
- Detoxification: Helps the body eliminate waste products, speeding up healing after childbirth.
8. Emotional and Mental Well-being
- Reduced Anxiety and Depression: Hormonal balance and nervous system relaxation reduce postpartum anxiety and depression.
- Improved Sleep: Relaxation and reduced stress lead to better sleep quality.
