If you suffer from discomfort, soreness, or pain in the chest area due to cancer, surgeries, or illness the breast massager can help to naturally alleviate those difficult symptoms.
This unique device is a gentle, extremely soft and flexible stimulator that rests directly on the chest. It has two ‘cups’ that are moveable to the position needed to fit in the area where the discomfort resides. It gives a gentle vibration that is suitable from the point of after surgical release from your doctor. This can help awaken the nerves in the area(s) that were damaged and regain pieces of feeling here and there without adding any medications or unnatural aspects to your treatment, along with drawing more blood flow to the damaged area for healing.
Aside from this specific model, there are numerous other types of breast and chest massagers and pain relief devices. Some of these devices are as simple as stones that can be warmed and cooled, while others are often also doubled as breast stimulation to increase milk supply for breastfeeding.
There are also medical-grade realistic, silicone, and other varieties of breast inserts/forms/prosthesis made to fit into a bra. These can help during times of transition or if you decide to forego reconstruction for the time being, or forever. These prostheses are available in standard sizes like small, medium, and large, or can be custom-made with specific cup sizes, skin tones, and nipple enhancements.
By taking control of your breast health and utilizing tools that can help to heal and empower you during this difficult time, you give yourself the best foot forward on getting back to yourself.
