Belly Binding

Bengkung Belly Binding is an ancient Malaysian method of wrapping the postpartum mother’s hips and belly with a long narrow piece of muslin cloth (17mtrs).

It's an effective and important method to help support the mother in her recovery. By giving constant pressure around the hips and abdomen it will help speed up the release of excessive blood, fluids and air left behind in the belly.
