Belly Binding

There are many different traditions of postpartum belly binding that can be found in many cultures and countries throughout the world including Mexico, Malaysia, and many indigenous tribes in North America. The Malaysian method of wrapping the abdomen and hips is a traditional postpartum practice called Bengkung belly binding. This is the form of binding that Lotus Love Doula Services uses to support our clients in their postpartum journey. The purpose of belly binding is to give greater support to the ligaments and muscles that are stretched and weakened during pregnancy. Binding the abdomen encourages faster healing and strengthening of the body. If you'd like to learn more about our belly binding or it's benefits contact us today!
