Post natal massage is specifically designed for women who have recently given birth, typically starting 2 to 6 weeks after delivery with healthcare provider approval. The therapy addresses common postpartum concerns including back and neck pain from breastfeeding, swollen extremities, hormonal fluctuations, fatigue, and emotional stress. Massage stimulates lymphatic drainage to reduce swelling, increases circulation to promote healing, releases muscle tension from pregnancy and labor, and supports hormonal balance. Many new mothers also experience improved sleep, reduced anxiety, and enhanced mood following treatment. The nurturing touch of massage provides emotional support during this challenging transition to motherhood.
At Tonic Physio, we understand that the postpartum period is both beautiful and challenging. Our Milton team provides compassionate, specialized massage care that supports your physical and emotional recovery after childbirth.
Specialized Postpartum Care
Our post natal massage sessions are carefully designed for new mothers. We use gentle techniques that respect your healing body while providing real therapeutic benefit. Positions are modified for comfort, including side-lying and semi-reclined options. We avoid deep pressure on sensitive areas and focus on problem regions like the neck, shoulders, lower back, and legs.
The postpartum period involves significant physical and emotional changes. Your body has undergone tremendous transformation during pregnancy and childbirth. Hormones fluctuate dramatically as your body adjusts to post-pregnancy life and breastfeeding. Post natal massage addresses these changes holistically. Gentle massage techniques stimulate the release of oxytocin, the bonding hormone, which supports breastfeeding and emotional connection with your baby. Lymphatic drainage reduces swelling in hands, feet, and ankles common after delivery. Muscle work relieves tension from hours of labor and new breastfeeding postures. The nurturing touch of massage also provides emotional support, reducing feelings of isolation and overwhelm that many new mothers experience. This comprehensive approach supports your entire recovery journey, helping you feel stronger, more balanced, and better equipped for the demands of new motherhood.
