Compress Your Abdomen PDF Print E-mail

Post partum support & C-Section pain control to maximize healing  

 The most important aspect to C Section recovery is compression for the pain reduction. By gently holding the tissue you increase your support for your internal organs and reduce pain. Compression also helps to slim the body after birth, by reminding the tissue where to move back. There are several ways to compress the abdomen post birth or post surgery. Compression is done through binding, massage or holding of the area.

Compression helps to reduce swelling, move stagnant lymph out of an area, stabilizes the skin  to shrink back, and supports tissue which was cut.  The muscles are generally moved and stretched during the c section, and it is the fascia that surrounds the muscles which is cut. The uterus also can benefit from support as it shrinks back into place.

 

Compression squeezes tissue together and makes the space in between the fibers smaller through pressure. The easiest way is through use of an abdominal binder,  which wraps around the stomach and compresses  skin, muscles, and internal organs. 
Compression Massage techniques also provide compression which increases circulation and connection, stimulating the healing process

Of course do not do anything that is painful,  and please be mindful to not wrap yourself too tightly. It is about support, not strangulation or cutting off blood supply.  Open the binder while in bed to allow your skin to breathe, but close it back up when you want to get up, or have things to do.
