Belly Binding for the Postpartum period
Bengkung belly binding is a traditional healing practice for postpartum moms from Malaysia. What makes it so amazing is the fact that each time it is wrapped, it will fit your body perfectly, holding you where you need the most support. Our bodies rapidly change after giving birth; this belly bind will adapt with you throughout your entire recovery. The bind is therapeutic and very comforting to use, but does not replace the care of a pysiotherapist or other specialist.
Full Circle Birth Collective also offers handmade Bengkung Belly Binds for purchase and private belly binding sessions.
