What Body Care During Pregnancy?

Pregnancy is a delicate period in a woman's life. She must be very careful about what she eats or applies to her face or body. Indeed, it is important to remember that exchanges between the mother and the fetus can also occur through the skin and penetrate into the bloodstream.

But we cannot deny that it is also a time when the body is tired, the skin is tight... and a body treatment is always welcome! So what kind of care during pregnancy?

Exfoliation, an essential during pregnancy

Hormonal changes during pregnancy cause you a lot of trouble. Your skin is put to the test and often the pores are clogged. A body scrub removes impurities from the skin, lets it breathe, and works through massage to activate and stimulate blood circulation.

After exfoliating, your skin is ready to receive a suitable treatment and to be deeply moisturized. This is also the case for your stretch mark cream, which should be applied just after your scrub.

Body massages

A pregnant woman is often very tired due to the various imbalances her body undergoes. A massage is welcome to relax her, but also to energize her and stimulate her microcirculation. If you are expecting, it is very important to tell the professional who is massaging you that you are pregnant, because in addition to special treatments for pregnant women, there are products that are not recommended for you.
