The transition into motherhood is beautiful, but it also brings major physical and emotional changes. Postpartum massage at Heather’s Balancing Touch in Black River Falls, Wisconsin is designed to support your healing, restore balance, and provide much-needed relaxation during this important stage of life.
Unlike a simple spa treatment, postpartum bodywork is a holistic therapy that helps regulate hormones, ease pain, reduce swelling, and promote emotional well-being. With compassionate care and professional expertise, Heather creates a safe space for mothers to recover, relax, and feel supported.
Relaxation & Stress Relief: Calms the nervous system, reduces stress hormones, and supports emotional balance.
Pain Relief: Eases back, shoulder, arm, and neck discomfort from pregnancy, breastfeeding, and childcare.
Hormone Regulation: Helps balance estrogen, progesterone, prolactin, and oxytocin levels to promote healing and breastfeeding.
Reduced Swelling: Improves circulation and lymphatic drainage to release excess fluid.
Better Sleep: Encourages deep rest by easing fatigue and promoting relaxation.
Improved Breastfeeding: Opens chest muscles, improves posture, and supports milk production.
Massage therapy has also been shown to benefit mothers experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety, or mood shifts, making it an essential part of whole-body recovery.
You can start postpartum massage as soon as you feel comfortable. Sessions are customized to your body’s needs, whether you prefer lying face-down again, side-lying for comfort, or supportive positions to accommodate breast or abdominal sensitivity. Heather will ensure you are always comfortable and safe throughout your treatment.
Heather provides thoughtful, individualized care for new mothers in Jackson County and surrounding areas. As a licensed massage therapist, she understands the unique challenges of postpartum recovery and tailors each session to your body’s healing process.
