Following my second birth I did Bengkung Belly Binding for 40 days postpartum and it was amazing! It helped with my postpartum hip and back pain and afterbirth pains. Binding also helped with my posture (I definitely could have used that after having my oldest) and not to mention it helped my stomach shrink down much faster.
Bengkung is a traditional Malaysian belly binding technique and a natural way of healing after birth. Benefits include:I offer two Belly Binding Packages; a one and three day binding. For one day in home bindings I come to your home and bind you and then teach you how to bind yourself. For my three day bind package I come to your home three days in a row, I bind you the first two days and then the third day I teach you to bind yourself. I will provide the binding materials.
