November 13, 2009, Newsletter Issue #60: Relief Of Menstrual Cramps
Tip of the Week
Menstrual cramps can be different for all women. From the location of the discomfort to the length of time and severity, the experience can vary greatly. Many women are turning to massage therapy as a way to deal with menstrual cramps.
Since these cramps typically start in the abdomen and lower back, the benefits of massage therapy make perfect sense in this situation. The lower back is one of the often targeted areas for pain relief when it comes to massage treatments. By relaxing the muscles in the lower back you can greatly reduce discomfort associated with cramping.
Abdominal massage treatments also help to improve circulation in the uterus, relieving pressure and cramps in the abdomen. This can help to curb nausea and diarrhea. Other methods like acupressure and aromatherapy are also sought after by women to relieve menstrual discomfort.
It is also important to note that cramps can spread to the legs and other parts of the back as well, so massage treatments targeting those areas can be very helpful.
