Mild massages can release the fatigue during pregnancy and outside of pregnancy
It can help
Yes
I don’t know if they will relieve fatigue, but they may make you feel better.
Yes, it could.
Absolutely yes it can. The amount of fluid in the body because of pregnancy dramatically increases with the developing fetus. Pregnancy fatigue is created and exacerbated by this increase in fluid volume with concomitant impacts on the cardiovascular and lymphatic system. Massage especially manual lymphatic drainage helps reduce this system load and promotes reductions in edema and pain
