Oxytocin is a hormone that makes one feel good and causes the breast glands to contract and fill the milk ducts helping the baby to get milk. The hormone also helps to create a strong bond between a mum and her baby. This, in turn, leads the uterus to contract to help the body return to its pre-pregnancy shape. Breastmilk helps to meet a baby’s nutritional needs. However, it can get challenging when the baby can’t be fed well due to a low milk supply. That’s where a lactation massager can come in handy which helps to compress the milk ducts helping the milk to move forward. It helps to empty the breast effectively thus supplying enough milk for your baby and also increases the overall milk production.

Hand expression is the use of your hand to remove breast milk, rather than through a pump or breastfeeding.Other lactation massagers are differentiated by their power source. Some are manually powered (ie, there’s no motor and no vibration, meaning they’re just like any rolling massager that you might use), while others are electric. Some mothers feel a little iffy about using the electric massagers in such a sensitive area, but they’re considered quite safe. A practitioner may use both hands to gently apply pressure in light strokes the entire way around the breast and underarm. After the circle is complete, your practitioner may pump the breast inward several times using both hands. Massage of the breasts and chest muscles is similar, but slightly different. With breast massage, the nipple is often involved. This isn’t the case with massage of the pectorals. Mommies like this massager for its silky feel and the fact that there are three different types of vibration as well as three different intensity levels. The rounded tip can also be used to target specific areas of the breast. Customisable Intensity: With six intensities available for each mode, you can easily adjust the settings to suit your comfort level and specific needs.
