WELEDA Perineal massage oil 50 ml

A purely natural oil developed by WELEDA specifically for massaging the sensitive perineal area during pregnancy. The gentle composition of almond oil, wheat germ oil, and other nourishing plant oils promotes the skin's natural suppleness and elasticity. Regular massage helps to relax the tissue, improves its blood circulation and prepares it for the strain of childbirth. The oil is very well tolerated by the skin and is also suitable for sensitive skin.

Active ingredients:
Almond oil – one of the finest vegetable oils – is ideal for dry and sensitive skin in both adults and children, especially for the delicate skin of babies. It is also popular among people with atopic skin. The light texture of the oil is quickly absorbed into the skin, softening and soothing it. It effectively locks moisture into the skin. It is great, for example, as a massage oil or bath additive.
Wheat germ oil – a light yellow vegetable oil rich in vitamin E. It contains high levels of linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid. It is particularly suitable for dry and mature skin.
Sesame oil – a perfect massage oil, used for the care of fragile, dry, and mature skin, it is also used in hair conditioners. It has significant antioxidant effects, the ability to care for the skin, and is an ideal carrier of active substances. Sesame oil has a high content of unsaturated fatty acids, such as oleic and linolenic acids, as well as phytosterols and vitamin E (gamma-tocopherol).
Jojoba oil – an oily liquid wax very similar to the protective layer of human skin. At the same time, it also supports the barrier function of the skin, protecting it from water loss without leaving it greasy. It is very gentle on the skin, easily absorbed and therefore suitable for products designed for all skin types, especially dry skin. It is also very suitable as a base oil that does not go rancid.

Use:
When massaging the perineum, it is important to massage not only the outside but also the inside of the perineum, i.e., the area between the anus and the vaginal opening. Therefore, you should also massage the area around the vaginal opening, which is the area that is most stressed during childbirth. During the massage, the woman inserts her thumb about 2cm into the vagina and gently stretches this area towards the anus. At the same time, she massages the perineum externally with her fingers. Massage the perineal tissue daily for 5-10 minutes from the 34th week of pregnancy.
