A massage during pregnancy provides relaxation and relieves pain in the back, so that your well-being is strengthened. Many pregnant women suffer from tension and back pain during pregnancy . Massages stimulate blood circulation and the body cells are sufficiently supplied with oxygen. In addition, the entire immune system is positively influenced. Simple massage techniques can be used by anyone, including your partner, on pregnant women. If the pregnancy is already very advanced, lying on the massage bed is perceived as uncomfortable, so comfortable massage chairs are very suitable for pregnant women. A specially shaped cushion ensures that the baby bump has enough space and you sit completely relaxed.
Certain acupressure points on the feet, hands and back can have a hormonal effect and should not be stimulated during pregnancy, which could cause premature birth, especially in late pregnancy. It is best to ask your midwife or a naturopathic doctor if you want to know which parts of the body should not be massaged. A sacrum massage should also be avoided.
