What are the benefits of postpartum yoga?
1, restore slim figure. Proper postpartum yoga exercise can improve blood circulation, restore skin tension, reduce fat accumulation, eliminate excess fat in abdomen, buttocks and thighs, and restore graceful posture before pregnancy. Six months after delivery is the golden opportunity for physical recovery. New mothers should grasp the time, cooperate with yoga movements and yoga vegetarian diet, which will give you unexpected surprises. However, due to the relaxation of joint tissue in postpartum body, it is necessary to increase the amount of exercise slowly, and follow the guidance of the tutor to avoid sports injury.
2. Improve bad posture. Due to many physiological changes of women during pregnancy, it is easy to produce bad posture, such as body center of gravity moving forward, cervical vertebra protruding forward, scapula pulling forward, pelvis leaning forward, center of gravity moving to heel, etc. And holding the baby after delivery is also easy to move the center of gravity forward. Thus causing postpartum neck, back, pelvis and heel pain, practicing yoga is conducive to improving these bad postures.
3. Adjust postpartum mentality. Yoga training can help new mothers to eliminate physical and psychological problems after becoming mothers, such as physical recovery, insomnia, emotional changes caused by hormonal imbalance and the challenges faced by caring for newborns. Postpartum yoga with various specific postures, effective breathing and calm meditation can make new mothers adjust their mentality, have enough courage to face their new life and their new roles, and prevent postpartum depression.
4. Enhance arm muscle strength. Yoga can reduce the excess fat on the arm, and also help to strengthen the muscle strength of the arm, helping new mothers to complete things that require arm strength, such as holding the baby and bathing the baby.
5. Restore your body energy. Due to the physical decline of pregnant women during pregnancy, they often feel weak and depressed after delivery. Yoga is very helpful to the recovery of body energy. Postpartum recovery not only refers to the recovery of the body, but also includes the recovery of various organs of the body. After all, pregnant 10 months, for pregnant women, various organs of the body have changed to varying degrees.
6. Reconstruct pelvic muscle tension. Postpartum, pelvic muscle tissue relaxes and the tension becomes weak. Moderate yoga training can not only enhance the elasticity of perineal muscles, promote uterine contraction, prevent the uterus, bladder and vagina from descending, and restore the uterus to its normal position, but also strengthen pelvic muscles, increase the support of organs in the pelvis, and prevent the occurrence of stress urinary incontinence.
Where is the postpartum full moon sweating?
Full moon sweating is usually at the center of the month or at home. If it is not necessary, it is recommended not to sweat during the full moon. First of all, there is no scientific basis for problems such as wet and cold moon disease. According to the concept of modern medicine, a certain therapy or medicine is to solve the corresponding symptoms or diseases. Full moon sweating claims to dispel cold and dampness to prevent and treat lunar disease, but neither cold and dampness nor lunar disease itself has scientific basis. Moon disease is like a trash can. There are no diagnostic criteria. Any discomfort that a mother feels after childbirth, such as low back pain, heel pain, joint pain, general weakness, sweating easily, etc., may be classified as "moon disease".
Moreover, postpartum short-term discomfort can be classified as "moon disease"; Discomfort after ten or twenty years can also be classified as "moon disease". So there is a very mysterious saying: "You will know when you are old." Besides, the cold in the body, no matter how deep it is, at least we know that human beings are warm-blooded animals, and the body temperature of healthy women is naturally constant, so the body will not become "cold" because of giving birth.
As for dehumidification and hydrops, it is true that there will be more fluid in the body during pregnancy, such as the increase of blood volume, which is commonly understood as "hydrops". However, as long as they are healthy women, they can return to the pre-pregnancy state through normal metabolism after delivery, and there is no need to "dehumidify and accumulate water" by sweating at the full moon. If the persistent postpartum performance is fluid retention, it is not full moon sweating, but the cause, such as heart and kidney problems. Therefore, we don't need to sweat on the full moon for problems that don't exist.
