Massage for Better Pelvic Health
Femoral massage is a simple technique that can help increase the blood flow to the uterus and ovaries and therefore increase your chances of conception. Anytime you increase blood flow to a particular organ you increase its function.
Directions
It’s easier to perform femoral massage if somebody else does it for you. However, it is possible to do it alone as well. If you are planning to do it alone, I recommend that you use a tennis ball instead of using your hands and lay on your abdomen instead of laying face up.
Locate the femoral artery in your groin area. It is a large artery just beneath the crease in your groin between your thigh and lower abdomen. Search around the groin area for a pulsing sensation.
Once you have located the femoral artery, apply pressure over it with your fingertips. You want to apply enough pressure to stop the pulsing of the artery. Hold the pressure for 30-45 seconds. The blood is now backing up and increasing the pressure in the iliac arteries, forcing more blood into the pelvic organs.
Release the pressure and let the blood flow normally. When the hold is released, you should feel a warm sensation rushing down your leg as the blood supply returns to the lower extremity.
Repeat on the opposite side. Perform this femoral massage sequence 3 times in a row, twice a day, before ovulation time.
Cautions
Do not perform femoral massage if you are or might be pregnant. Also, do not practice this technique if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, circulatory problems, or a history of strokes or detached retinas.
Acupuncture is another great treatment technique that can decrease overall stress, normalize hormonal secretions, increase blood flow to the pelvic organs and strengthen the immune system. In combination with Chinese herbal medicine it is a powerful, natural and safe way to enhance fertility and increase overall health.
