8963524 tn?1411060879 Really?
996946 tn?1503249112 Thank you so much for that suggestion. I know they do some massage with her, maybe they need to do that more often. They are first time parents and I know that in itself can be stressful and anxious.
Avatar f tn Hey mommies I am a ftm but I already know I want a natural birth no meds the only thing is I have a low to medium tolerance for pain. How did you deliver naturally and what techniques did you use?
8824415 tn?1409177244 All are great techniques that work for many women. You may get to the point where you want medication, which they can offer, some to help you reduce the pain and help you get some rest, a few hospitals offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas), and of course epidurals. There's lots of info on all of it and you just have to make the right choice for you- there si no right or wrong way. It's your experience. You can do it mama!
1934376 tn?1323427486 Establish a rhythm and do for 15 to 30 minutes twice a day. Not for pregnant women. Seriously ill people do it gently.
1184961 tn?1292574076 Yes & it does help, only it's expensive. My husband has been unemployed for 2 years so we have to cut back on expenses. I do get the massages when I can though. I wish I could get them on a regular basis. I failed to say that I also havae fibromyalgia so the massages does wonders for that when I can get them regularly. I haev 2 friends who are massage therapists who do give me discounts right now, so I am blessed in that respect. Thanks for reminding me of this.
Avatar f tn I know that many women prefer different ones but I dont have time for a class. So I was looking for something I could learn myself. Something that is easy to understand and easy to understand.
Avatar f tn s all over. See if you can try some natural pain reliving techniques like massage, shower or bath, heating pads, TENS unit. That might be enough to get you through. Try and stay focused, you can do it.
620923 tn?1452915648 Please share ur relaxation techniques and if u have a term u want a definition for please list it and we will do our best to answer.
Avatar f tn Kegels multiple times a day. Practice breathing techniques. Practice meditation and visualization and relaxation. Walk every day. Squats every day. Have some Lavender and Clary sage essential oils handy to sniff on a cotton ball to relax. Perineum massage every day if you have a willing partner. (Pretty hard to do it yourself.) Best thing I suppose we can do is have our bodies and minds prepared. Do you know the stages of labour and what to expect in each and how long they typically last?
Avatar m tn The theory behind this approach is that massage can help to improve circulation and reduce fluid retention, which can in turn reduce the appearance of cellulite. Some massage techniques that are commonly used for cellulite include lymphatic drainage massage, deep tissue massage, and myofascial release. While massage may provide some temporary relief, it is not considered to be a long-term solution for cellulite.
8071871 tn?1398900696 But I know a lot of women swear by perineum massages the last few weeks to prep body for the big stretch. You can try Googling it on different techniques.
Avatar f tn This is my first pregnancy and I don't want to take any meds. So how was it for you guys. The pain, how long were you in labor? Would you do it again ?
Avatar n tn I did not develop Lymphodema after my cancer treatment but because I was having radiation to the bowel, I was seeing a physio for prevention techniques to stop it happening and if it did happen how to manage it. (I had my pelvic lymph nodes removed during my hysterectomy). If you see your doctor and get him to refer you to a physiotherapist that is experienced in lymphatic drainage massage they will be able to show you and treat you with massage that you can actually do at home.
Avatar n tn You also need a good sleeve and gauntlet to help keep the swelling down while you travel. They can also show you some manual drainage techniques and some pretty wicked bandaging to get the swelling down.
8594632 tn?1410183693 m a ftm so no but in mii lamaze class I had last week that was one of the techniques to start labor nd calm u during labor
Avatar m tn Also, there was a female doctor that sold a CD describing the proper techniques for this. Depending upon the technique done in your case, things should get back to normal fairly soon. If not, after a week, you should get checked out with your doctor or urologist.
82861 tn?1333453911 ll probably find that as even a quick, casual neck massage with your fingers results in the dog leaning into you and instantly relaxing into readiness for the full-body treatment. If you have a very active, hyper dog, massage is a great technique to calm them down. Massage also creates a unique bonding experience for both of you. Enjoy!
172023 tn?1334672284 Is it simply expected that a man gets a...ummm...*special* ending? Is this only offered at the shadier places? Or is it simply something that is expected that you will get? Men only, please. I like to know what makes you guys tick. Feel free to elaborate. I used a Poll so that you could keep your anonymity, if desired.
Avatar f tn I went to one with my hubby for my first child. They basically show you breathing techniques, how to focus on other things besides labor pain. I guess basically how to mentally and physically deal with labor. They show you ways your partner can help with massage using different tools. We watched a birthing video and watched how to change a diaper and swaddled a baby. While learning how to cope with labor was interesting, I didn't use anythign but the breathing exercise.
446504 tn?1205256434 Doing regular exercise, relaxation techniques, warm shower and gentle massage can be tried. If there is no benefit, consult your doctor for an evaluation.

Avatar m tn Get your testosterone level checked. Same thing happened to me and mine was low. Refrain from sex for a while as your burning out your bodies production of nitric oxide causing your ED now. Raising your testoterone level should improve your erection and orgasm problems.
