For centuries, naturopaths have sworn by the effects of dry brushing. They are supposed to strengthen the immune system, rid the body of toxins and promote blood circulation. Especially during pregnancy, blood circulation-promoting measures are part of daily skin care to prevent stretch marks. Used in combination with special massage oils, this can become a wonderful ritual that is not only good for the skin, but will also increase well-being.

The high-quality Belly Brush massage brush from Mommy SPA is made of fine beech wood and the vegan bristles are perfect for a pleasantly gentle massage of the baby's belly. The skin is thus ideally prepared for subsequent care, for example with the Mommy SPA Belly Elixir. The massage opens the pores and the nutrients in the care products can be absorbed particularly well by the skin.

The synthetic bristles are particularly soft and are therefore perfect for a daily massage, which can become a small relaxation ritual during pregnancy - alone or with pleasure second.

The ideal time for dry brushing is morning. For a soothing baby belly massage, let the brush gently circle the skin in a clockwise direction. Start on the lower right side of your stomach and work your way up towards your ribs in small circular motions. Then continue brushing horizontally to the left side and return from there down to the starting point.

For a stimulating full-body massage, start with the areas furthest from the heart, such as the feet. Work towards the center of the body, towards the heart, with strong brush strokes or circular movements. For a healthy lymph flow, it is important to always work from the bottom up.

The skin will redden slightly during the process and a soothing tingling sensation will develop.

Even after the birth, a daily massage with the Belly Brush Massage brush can help the skin regain its elasticity and existing streaks gently fade.

Note: If there are caesarean scars, these should be avoided as a precaution when massaging. If you have a general tendency to premature labour, it is advisable to consult your midwife in advance so that you do not stimulate labor activities. If you are unsure about the massage techniques, it is advisable to seek advice from your midwife or gynecologist.

Tip: If you have problems starting in the morning, a light full-body massage is direct particularly recommended after getting up, as it regulates blood pressure, gets the circulation going and at the same time activates endorphins. For this reason, this stimulating massage should not be used in the evening, as this could lead to problems falling asleep.

Care instructions: The bristles can cleaned with a mild natural soap and then rinsed with clear water. Then shake it out lightly and let it dry in a well-ventilated room (lying on the bristles!) - not put directly on a radiator! This guarantees a long and beautiful life for the Belly Brush massage brush .
