Abdominal Self-Massage
Daily self-administered visceral abdominal massage consisting of circular motions and pressure point techniques, performed for 5-20 minutes in total based on participant preference. The massage includes two parts: belly exercises (10 exercises) and pelvic exercises (3 exercises), with each exercise repeated 5-10 times or until the area feels relaxed. The app provides instructional videos and written step-by-step guides with drawings in English and German. Participants are recommended to use oil/cream, find a comfortable position, and integrate the massage into a daily routine.
