The benefits of postpartum abdominal breathing After giving birth to the baby, my friend told me that I can use abdominal breathing, which has more benefits to my body.
1. Giving full play to heart and lung function can give full play to the functions of heart and lung cells, increase vital capacity, enhance heart function, and increase the power of digestive system, thus enhancing and activating its function, which is conducive to eliminating toxins accumulated in intestinal tract and releasing internal stress.
2, promote abdominal movement, because all organs except the heart, brain and lungs are hidden in the abdominal cavity. Including the digestive system, hematopoietic system, reproductive system, urinary system, endocrine system and lymphatic system, and there are a lot of blood vessels and nerves, so the abdominal cavity is very important. Therefore, it is very important to strengthen abdominal breathing and promote abdominal movement.
3. Improve the blood circulation of digestive tract. The advantage of abdominal breathing is to increase the volume of chest cavity, increase the negative pressure of chest cavity, reduce the pressure of superior and inferior vena cava and accelerate the blood return through the change of abdominal pressure. Due to the regular increase or decrease of abdominal pressure, the activities of abdominal internal organs are strengthened, thus improving the blood circulation of the digestive tract, promoting the digestion and absorption function of the digestive tract, promoting intestinal peristalsis, preventing constipation, accelerating the discharge of toxins, reducing autotoxicity and achieving the purpose of delaying aging.
4, promote digestion, abdominal breathing also includes pelvic exercise, that is, while doing abdominal breathing, cooperate with anal contraction, anal relaxation and abdominal lifting to promote pelvic blood flow, because the organs in the pelvic cavity involve the endocrine system of the human body, and the urogenital system is a part that cannot be ignored.
Take a deep breath and breathe slowly for a long time. Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth. Breathe. Breathe for about 15 seconds. That is, breathe deeply (abdomen) and hold your breath for 3-5 seconds 1 second, then exhale slowly (abdomen) and hold your breath for 3-5 seconds 1 second. 5- 15 minutes each time. Do it for 30 minutes. Healthy people can hold their breath longer and try to slow down and deepen their breathing rhythm. People in poor health don't have to hold their breath, but they should take in enough gas. Practice 1-2 times a day, sit, cross, walk and run until it is slightly hot and sweaty. Try to inflate and deflate the abdomen 50- 100 times. If oral liquid overflows when breathing, you can swallow it slowly.
When is the best time for postpartum recovery? The best time for postpartum recovery is 2-3 months. About 42 days after delivery, you can go to the hospital to do pelvic floor functional exercise, restore normal pelvic floor muscles, and avoid prolapse affecting the quality of sexual life. Exercise as much as possible at ordinary times can increase your resistance, avoid the separation of rectus abdominis after delivery, and also affect the beauty of the abdomen and cause physical impact. Exercise must be gradual, don't exercise too much and too violently, so as not to cause ligament damage. At the same time, even within 42 days after delivery, you can take a proper walk, because absolute bed rest is not conducive to the discharge of uterine lochia, nor to uterine contraction, and will also affect your health. Generally, within 42 days after delivery, the uterus can completely contract and return to normal, so most women's lochia cleaning time is 42 days after delivery, which requires active care according to the doctor's advice. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and pay attention to your scientific habits.
