Instructions for use:
The massage can be done by you or your partner. Massage 3-4 times a week for 5-10 minutes, starting from the 34th week of pregnancy. The massage is recommended to be done after a hot bath and after the bladder has been emptied. Moisten your thumb (or index finger if your partner is doing the massage) with Perineal Massage Oil and gently place it on the skin without causing pain. Insert the finger into the vagina until it joins the other finger. Gently, rhythmically massage the vaginal wall in circular movements, like the hands of a clock going from position 3 to 9 and backwards. With each massage, you will feel the tissues and muscles become looser and softer so that the duration of the massage can be increased. Massage until you feel a slight tingling sensation and continue to massage the tissue between the vagina and the anus gently between your thumb and middle fingers. After the massage, the extra oil can be removed using warm water. If you have any concerns about massaging the perineal area, please talk to your midwife or doctor.
