The Circulatory System of the Body is under enormous stress during Pregnancy, with blood volume increasing up to 60 percent. As the uterus enlarges and presses deep into the pelvic bowl, pressure is applied to major blood vessels, hampering venous blood flow back to the heart and increasing blood pressure.
Pregnancy Massage supports the return of blood to the heart and increases circulation of blood and lymph, helping to keep blood pressure normal. The enhanced Blood and Lymph flow also increases the nutrition and elimination of wastes for both the Mother and her Baby. Back to List |
