Breast Massage

The female breasts are made up of fatty tissue, milk producing glands and lymphatic ducts and nodes which benefit greatly from being massaged. The breasts of Western women are are more susceptible to breast cancer, than women in developing cultures, as they do not breast feed to the same extent and their breasts are confined to a restrictive brassier for a greater part of their lives.

It is a widely held opinion, with some excellent supporting evidence, that the confinement of the breasts causes a stagnation of fluids within the breasts which provides the opportunity for cancer to develop. New research suggest that regular breast massage helps to prevent and assist recovery from cancers, see massage facts. Also, the application of a deoderant containing an anti-perspirant may lead to cancer development. (see below links for information on both)

Few Western women are prepared to abandon their bras and massage is the primary solution for them to, not only help prevent breast cancer, but maintain breast health and shape. Breast massage should be included as a normal part of any massage treatment.

Women are told to do monthly exams but most do not so. By implementing this into a massage you are being professionally checked for any abnormalities while getting rid of the stagnant toxins.

As you can see massage of the breasts is an important element of any massage treatment that on the basis of all evidence will help to keep breasts healthy.
