The Benefits of Pregnancy Massage

Reduce Swelling

During pregnancy, extra pressure on your blood vessels and low circulation could lead to edema or swelling. The symptom is most obvious in the feet, ankles, and legs. You can notice the buildup of fluids around these areas. Fortunately, pregnancy massage can be helpful in alleviating swelling. It is able to stimulate soft tissues and reduce the accumulation of fluids in these swollen joints. Pregnant women should get deep tissue massage regularly to enjoy this benefit. At the same time, the method can improve the ability of the lymph system to get rid of tissue waste. [3]
