Postpartum massage helps move excess fluid out of the body, helps the reproductive organs return to their pre pregnancy size and location, and can help decrease the risk of excess bleeding. I use herbal blends for soaking and drinking that have been developed by seasoned herbalists, midwifes and holistic doctors to help decrease inflammation, balance hormones, and tone and strengthen tissues and organs. These herbs are also anti-bacterial and help prevent yeast over growth.

 

I recommend the use of a Belly Bandit wrap and healing oil packs along with physical therapy exercises that I will give to you to restore the abdomen to pre-pregnancy shape in optimal time. Along with nursing and a healthy diet most of my clients weight is 10 to 20 pounds below their pre-pregnancy weight by one year postpartum.

 

Vitanica herbal blends and Standard Process Supplements are also recommended for restoring optimal health after childbirth. Supplementation is definitely important after an augmented, medical or surgical birth to restore balance.
