Massaging the breasts stimulates the milk-producing glands and promotes better blood circulation, which can enhance the let-down reflex. Gentle circular motions around the breast, combined with compression towards the nipple, can encourage milk flow. This is particularly helpful if the mother experiences engorgement or difficulty in milk release. Regular massage can also help prevent blocked ducts, reduce discomfort, and support overall lactation. Pairing massage with skin-to-skin contact with the baby or warm compresses can further boost milk let-down and improve breastfeeding success.
