Postpartum belly relaxation massage technique

Postpartum belly relaxation massage technique

For women who have just given birth, moderate abdominal massage is conducive to the recovery of the uterus and has the benefit of preventing uterine prolapse. During the massage, the pregnant woman can lie flat, and the masseur can sit or sit. Then rub their hands together to warm them, put them on the middle of the pregnant woman's belly, and then press down on the abdomen with a little force and massage slowly. Massage in a clockwise direction until the abdomen feels warm. Each massage should not be less than 5 minutes. Massage can dredge meridians, accelerate blood circulation, and promote metabolism.

The best way to improve sagging abdominal skin after childbirth is exercise. Improving the elasticity of local muscles and fiber cells through exercise is the best way to repair sagging skin, but it requires persistence and gradual progress. In addition, some local laser surgeries will also have certain effects, but the type of laser selected must be a treatment method that can reach deep into the dermis, such as thermal lifting, thermolift or some types of laser fractionation, which can stimulate the proliferation and reconstruction of dermal collagen and significantly improve skin sagging, but the best, safest and most effective method is still exercise.

If the abdomen is loose after giving birth, you should carefully check whether it is the loosening of fat accumulation or the separation of abdominal muscles to identify the cause of the loose abdomen. If the abdominal muscles are separated, a bandage should be used as soon as possible. If the separation is too wide, the bandage cannot solve the problem of looseness and surgical repair is required. If it is simply fat accumulation, you can make the abdomen tighter after giving birth by adjusting your diet, doing some anal and abdominal contraction exercises, abdominal muscle contraction exercises, abdominal massage, and acupuncture therapy.

During pregnancy, the expanded uterus causes the abdominal skin to flex and stretch. After giving birth, the uterus recovers and the abdominal cavity becomes more relaxed. In this case, if you choose to give birth naturally, it is recommended to use a belly band 2 months after giving birth to allow the abdominal skin to slowly recover to its original condition. In addition, it is recommended to do yoga after giving birth, and other exercises, such as push-ups, are helpful in improving the loose abdomen. Pay attention to the dietary structure after giving birth, eat less high-fat foods, and avoid fat accumulation due to lack of nutrition. When the abdominal fat is relatively loose, it is more likely to cause fat accumulation. Therefore, it is recommended to arrange the dietary structure scientifically and eat a reasonable diet.
