Belly Binding
​Belly Binding is a traditional Malaysian practice done in the postpartum period to aid in recovery from childbirth. There are many benefits to binding including:
- Supporting internal organs
- Assisting in abdominal wall retraction and diastasic recti recovery
- Reducing the postpartum "pouch" that many women experience
- Encouraging good posture
- Improving circulation 
- Reducing water retention
- Closing and reshaping of the hips and rib cage
- Decreasing postpartum bleeding time
- Supporting the pelvic floor
- Lessening the after pains
- Encouraging spinal realignment to a pre-pregnancy state
- Preventing slouching while holding/feeding your child 


Binding is done in the first 24 hours postpartum for a vaginal birth and no sooner than 2 weeks after cesarean birth. The Bind is most effective when used during the first 8 weeks postpartum but, can be useful anytime during the postpartum period. ​Belly Binding Service Includes:
