Belly binding is a way to bring well-being during your sacred window. In the first 42 days, the mother needs to stay warm, well-nourished, and rested as much as possible. Belly binding encourages healing from pelvic/pubic separation. Your relaxed and stretched out muscles will be supported. From an Ayurvedic perspective belly binding grounds your nervous system by preventing air, fluids and space elements from accumulating in the body, bowels/abdomen. Helps your organs come back into their proper positions, aids digestion, aids posture, and helps with the application of therapeutic oils. At the beginning of each session, we will be doing breath-work, meditation, and visualization with sophrology. An Ayurvedic womb massage would be given before each belly binding with healing therapeutic oil. 

In the Ayurvedic method, we use muslin fabric. It can be worn for up to 24 hours everyday during your sacred window and beyond as desired. The belly binding can take place a couple of hours after the birth as soon as the vitals are stable. Belly binding helps your uterus on the journey back to their initial size. Ideally, contact me before 37 weeks to reserve your belly binding if you want to have it just after birth.
