Breast milk - your body’s liquid gold. With over 400 identified nutrients and stem cells, the milk actually changes every minute depending on the information form your baby’s saliva on the areola. Pretty much magic.

Breasts are energy centers – according to traditional Chinese medicine, there are six energy lines (meridians) that run through the breasts, three of them being the Kidney, Liver, and Stomach meridians where many breast lumps and cancer develop. Massaging and holding certain acupressure and energy points can help promote breast and whole body healthy vitality.
