Belly Birth Scar Massage Guide - Free Download
Why You'll ♡ Me:
Compiled by our friends at Viva La Vulva, once your initial incision has fully healed, using VLV's Belly Birth Scar Oil to massage the area is highly beneficial for the healing process. A scar massage helps to mobilize skin tissues, reduce scar tissue buildup, increase blood flow, improve mobility and flexibility, relieve itching, and can even restore feeling to the area. Scar massage is essential as it not only addresses the surface scar, but also the underlying layers of your body that have been affected. By massaging the surrounding tissue, you can not only improve the appearance of the scar, but also improve muscle function and tissue mobility.
A belly birth is no easy feat! Whether it was planned or not, we think you are damn incredible.
Scars are a part of our body's natural healing process, and this is one you should wear with pride. A C-section is a major surgery, cutting through seven layers of your body. Most major surgeries include some level of physiotherapy to support a full recovery, but this is currently not the case for C-section mamas, so we need to do it ourselves!
