What Are the Best Postpartum Massages for New Mothers?
by 
Having a baby changes everything. Your body just did something incredible—and now it needs time to heal.
Postpartum massage isn’t a luxury. It’s recovery. Your muscles are exhausted, your hormones are all over the place, and your body is adjusting to a whole new normal. The right massage can help you through it.
Here’s what actually helps:
Abdominal massage. This helps your uterus return to its normal size and reduces swelling. It also eases tension in your core, which has been through a lot.
Full-body relaxation massage. Gentle, calming strokes that help with stress, improve sleep, and give your nervous system a break. New moms don’t get enough rest—this helps fill the gap.
Back and shoulder relief. Nursing, carrying, bending over a crib—it all adds up. Targeted work on your upper back and shoulders releases the tension that builds up from those repetitive movements.
Lymphatic drainage. Reduces water retention and helps flush out toxins. If you’re dealing with swelling in your legs or feet, this one’s a game-changer.
The result?
Less pain. Better sleep. Faster healing. And a moment to actually breathe.
That’s what we do at Aman Therapeutic.
We understand what new mothers go through because we’ve seen it, supported it, and built our treatments around it. Postpartum care isn’t just about the baby—it’s about you, too. And in Dubai, where support systems can feel far away, we wanted to create a space where new moms could actually heal.
If your body’s been telling you it needs help, listen to it. We’re here when you’re ready.
