Fertility Massage works on a physical, emotional and spiritual level and although its name suggests that it is all about getting pregnant, fertility encompasses more than that. Treatments to aid conception play a massive role but if you’re experiencing reproductive issues and not trying to get pregnant, it can still be enormously beneficial.
It can increase circulation to the uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes, help balance hormones, helps get rid of old, stagnant blood, tissues and scar tissue and can be used in the treatment of:
- PCOS
- Endometriosis and Fibroids
- Heavy and/or Painful Periods
- Irregular bleeds
- Poor Egg/Sperm Health
- Poor Mucus Production
- Blocked Fallopian Tubes
- Digestive Complaints
- Lower Back Pain
Physical conditions can also cause emotional issues.
And sometimes we hold onto those without realising!
Pain may affect our stress levels. What we might see as our failure to conceive or to carry a baby can be emotionally painful, frustrating and isolating. We may become isolated from our bodies, and specifically our wombs, as a result. Our abdomens can hold a lot of fears, stresses, tensions and emotions. Just think about the phrases we use: “Gut wrenching“, “Butterflies in my stomach“. Fertility Massage helps to gently these tensions, leaving you feeling calmer and more relaxed.
Fertility Massage can also be wonderful at helping ease emotional trauma:
- Stress
- Tension from previous emotional traumas
- Releasing trapped emotions
- Helps women connect to their wombs and future babies
And just as our reproductive reflexology treatments, it is suitable for using alongside IVF, ICSI, IUI, egg or sperm donor.
This isn’t about that oft-heard phrase “Just relax and you’ll get pregnant!” as anybody who has been in that situation knows that is SO much easier said than done. Taking time to be nurtured, to relax and release tension and held emotions may gently encourage you to relax and to let yourself be supported on whatever journey you are on.
Whatever your fertility story, Fertility Massage can be of benefit.
