17. Still Tired After Rest? Here’s Why

 

Whole-Body Relaxation for Deep Recovery

 

Do you feel sluggish in the morning, even after a full night’s sleep? Many pregnant women experience deep fatigue that lingers throughout the day, despite resting. This is because your body is working hard to grow new life—and that energy demand is massive.

Add in hormonal shifts, organ displacement, and nervous system tension, and your body may struggle to fully recover. At Physic Ebisu, we focus on gentle whole-body care that helps reset your nervous system and restore energy naturally.

Why Tension Doesn’t Release at Night

 

Postural changes and loosened ligaments during pregnancy often lead to overcompensation and muscle tightness—especially around the lower back, hips, and spine.

This tension can compress the autonomic nervous system, preventing your body from shifting into deep rest at night. Persistent muscle tension also interferes with your ability to fall or stay asleep.

Why Deep Sleep Matters for Healing

At night, your body doesn’t just rest—it repairs. During deep sleep, the parasympathetic nervous system activates, flushing out brain toxins, repairing organs, and balancing hormones.

However, if adrenaline and cortisol remain elevated (due to stress or blood sugar issues), your body may stay in a light, unrestful sleep state. In some cases, nutrient deficiencies like low B vitamins or iron can also cause vivid dreams or poor-quality sleep.

 

 

How Maternity Hands Care Helps

Through cranial work, visceral manipulation (abdominal care), and spinal alignment, we relieve physical tension and improve the alignment of internal organs and nerves.

Loosening abdominal tension, in particular, supports better breathing, digestion, and autonomic balance—helping you enter a deep, restorative state. Our care is gentle yet powerful in promoting inner calm.

Nutritional Support for Recovery

Chronic fatigue often stems from nutritional imbalances such as iron deficiency, low B vitamins, or magnesium depletion. These not only affect energy levels but also impact the nervous and hormonal systems.

At Physic Ebisu, we combine manual therapy with nutrition guidance to support lasting energy, helping both you and your baby thrive.
