THE BENEFITS OF BREAST MASSAGE(women's health)


Knowing how to give oneself a breast massage is something every woman should learn. Gentle breast massage is of great benefit and lessens the risk of breast cancer, by draining the lymphatic nodes of toxins. Gentle to moderate kneading, rubbing and squeezing strokes with the hands are sufficient to induce increased lymph and blood flow to the breast.

First, use your fingers and gently smooth away form the nipple. These movements should travel form the nipple and directly away using no more pressure than what you would apply to your eyelid. Any more pressure would flatten the lymphatic vessel and stop the flow of toxins and fluids.

Also, make this stroke slow, not fast, for it to be effective. Secondly, gently massage the breast with a kneading-like motion, using lifting and pressing movements.

Thirdly, slowly and carefully use your hands to twist the breast in a clockwise and anticlockwise direction, being careful not to put too much tension on the breast. This procedure should be done at least twice a week.

It can be done on bare skin, but you may find that using some vegetable oil may be more comfortable. Do not use mineral-based or scented oils
