During pregnancy, and after birth, your body experiences many changes. Your muscles and soft tissues have to adapt to carrying a baby and may become overworked or overstretched as your posture changes throughout pregnancy. Your body also undergoes a lot of stress during childbirth. Whether you have a straightforward delivery, a more complicated birth or a C-section it can take time to recover from this process.
In the past people worried that massage could cause cancer cells to spread to other parts of the body and therefore cancer was considered a contraindication to massage. This is now known to be a myth, cancer develops and spreads because of changes to a cell's DNA (genetic mutations) and other processes in the body.
