Lansinoh Organic Pre-Birth Preparation Oil * 50 ML

Lansinoh’s Organic Pre-Birth Preparation Oil nourishes and conditions the skin of the perineum through perineal massage, proven to help prevent tearing during childbirth. 

With a blend of 100% natural ingredients, our perineal oil has been designed specifically to be used to massage the perineum from 34 weeks of pregnancy - conditioning and nourishing the skin, as well as promoting skin elasticity, in turn reducing the chance of tearing during birth.

• Before you start, ensure your hands are clean and nails are clean and short. Then make yourself comfortable with one leg raised on a stool, sitting, or lying down. 
• Apply your perineal massage oil to your fingers and make small, circular movements on either side of your vulva, warming the tissue. Then place your thumb or finger about an inch into your vagina and gently stretch the tissue at the entrance, holding it between your thumb and index finger. 
• Massage from the 6 o’clock to 3 o’clock position, then from the 6 o’clock to 9 o’clock position, focusing on the area at the entrance to the vagina, gently but firm enough to work into the tissue. Finish with gentle outwards stretches at the 5 o'clock and 7 o'clock positions, holding for 30-45 seconds.
• Our pre-birth perineum massage oil is especially effective when used alongside our other award-winning Birth Preparation & Recovery products.
