Can pregnant women sit in a massage chair?

Massage chairs can effectively relieve our fatigue and some pain and discomfort in the body, but not everyone is suitable for massage chairs. For example, the physical condition of pregnant women is relatively special, and the health of the fetus must be considered. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to use massage chairs during pregnancy. In fact, massage chairs also have electromagnetic waves and may cause radiation damage.

1. Massage chairs are usually not recommended for pregnant women

1. Massage chairs usually provide full-body massages, but pregnant women are special because they have many sensitive parts. If they are accidentally pressed, it can be very dangerous to the fetus.

2. The force of the massage chair is difficult to control. When the force is small, the effect is not significant. When the force is large, it will make the pregnant woman's muscles more painful.

3. When the massage chair presses inappropriate acupoints, it may cause fetal movement disorders.

4. Some massage chairs contain radiation, and we all know that radiation can cause fetal malformations, so we should stay away from radiation during pregnancy. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to use massage chairs for massage. If you feel sore or tired, you can ask your family or professional masseurs to massage you to relieve the discomfort.

2. Hazards of electromagnetic radiation

1. For pregnant women, there is no need to worry about electromagnetic waves causing fetal malformations. Because the fetus is protected by our thick abdominal skin and cell tissue, and is isolated by amniotic fluid. However, people are still questioning whether electromagnetic waves can induce spontaneous abortion and premature birth. In this regard, scientific research is still blank and there is no affirmative or negative conclusion.

2. We know almost nothing about the long-term effects of electromagnetic radiation. Is it dangerous for us, especially for the babies we are carrying, to come into contact with various electrical appliances every day? No one can prove that radio waves and electric fields are harmless, but no one can prove that they are harmful. Research in this area has been ongoing for more than 20 years, and the results are contradictory.

3. Faced with this lack of definite conclusion, experts recommend that pregnant women should be cautious to avoid exposure to electromagnetic waves. When we don't know whether electromagnetic waves are good or bad, we should be cautious but not too nervous.
