The postpartum period is a time of intense physical and emotional change. After the birth of a baby, a woman's body begins a natural recovery process, but sometimes it needs a little extra help. Postnatal massages not only relieve accumulated tension, but also help to balance the body and mind, promoting a more harmonious recovery.
At Body&mind in Valencia, we offer a selection of therapeutic and relaxing massages specially designed for new mothers. Below, we explain what each one consists of.
This massage is ideal for reducing fluid retention and improving blood circulation. After giving birth, it is common for the legs, ankles and feet to accumulate fluid, causing swelling and a feeling of heaviness. Thanks to gentle and precise movements, this treatment activates the lymphatic system, reduces inflammation in the extremities and helps prevent and treat postpartum cellulite.
The back suffers greatly during pregnancy and the first months of motherhood, especially due to poor posture when breastfeeding or carrying the baby. Therapeutic massage helps to release tension, relieve muscle spasms and treat neck and lower back pain, as well as postpartum sciatica. A pain-free back improves rest and daily energy levels.
A relaxing massage is a profound wellness experience. Many women experience episodes of anxiety or stress during the postpartum period. This massage is designed to calm the mind, improve sleep and rest, and reduce accumulated emotional tension. A relaxed body promotes a better connection with your baby.
Pressotherapy is a technique recommended by specialists to relieve swelling in the legs, ankles, and feet. Using a controlled compression system, it improves circulation, stimulates lymphatic drainage, and reduces the feeling of heaviness. When combined with massage, its effects are significantly enhanced.
Although designed for pregnancy, many new mothers also enjoy this facial treatment that oxygenates and nourishes the skin. It includes a relaxing massage of the face, neck and décolleté, ideal for reconnecting with yourself and revitalising your skin after pregnancy.
Wood therapy, performed with wooden tools, is a natural technique that activates blood and lymphatic circulation, reduces cellulite and fluid retention, and tones the skin. It is a very effective option for regaining your figure after pregnancy in a natural and pleasant way.
At Body&mind, we accompany you every step of the way. Book your postnatal massage session in Valencia and treat yourself to the care you deserve.
