We are Fertilidad Integral
We are a specialized fertility clinic. We combine science, experience, and a human approach to support you every step of the way.
It’s no secret: fertility treatments come with a heavy physical and emotional toll. Fortunately, there are complementary therapies, techniques, and practices that can help you navigate these experiences and make them more manageable. And that’s where massage comes in! Body massage has been used in different cultures for centuries to promote overall health and well-being. In fact, there are records of massage dating back to 2,700 B.C.
Strictly speaking, a massage involves manipulating the body's soft tissues (such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments) to encourage relaxation and relieve stress. What you probably didn't imagine is that this technique can also have a positive impact on your fertility because it addresses two important aspects: your physical health and your emotional well-being.
At Fertilidad Integral, we believe that a fertility journey is also a journey of self-care. And, as we will explain later, the evidence shows that these two are closely related. So relax, grab a cup of tea, and learn about the benefits that pampering your body can have on your fertility.
How massages can improve your fertility
1. They reduce stress and improve your emotional well-being
Stress and fertility have a two-way relationship: stress affects the ability to conceive, and difficulties in conceiving can increase stress. This is because cortisol (the stress hormone) impacts reproductive hormones and ovulation in women, as well as sperm quality in men. Massages can lower cortisol levels and promote the release of hormones like serotonin and dopamine, creating a more favorable environment for your treatment.
2. They improve blood circulation
There are factors—such as a sedentary lifestyle, an unbalanced diet, or chronic stress—that can affect blood circulation. And this is key to the health of your reproductive organs! Massages have the power to reactivate blood flow, which means improving the transport of oxygen and nutrients to the organs, reducing muscle tension, and facilitating proper hormonal function.
3. They balance your hormones
By combating stress and stimulating blood flow, massages can significantly influence hormone production and regulation. This is not only because they promote the release of hormones like serotonin and dopamine (which are associated with a sense of well-being), but also because they help balance the hormones responsible for ovulation.
4. They relax pelvic muscle tension
Massages can help relax the pelvic muscles surrounding the reproductive organs, thereby improving their flexibility. This translates into better mobility and positioning, which can be beneficial when trying to conceive.
5. They are a space for self-care and relaxation
Fertility, reproduction, and freezing treatment processes can be emotionally and physically exhausting. Taking a break, treating yourself, and finding a space dedicated exclusively to your relaxation and self-care can be ideal for coping with difficult moments. Remember: feeling good is more important than anything else.
