More importantly, it\u2019s about honoring the transition to parent and self-care.\u00a0 Postpartum belly binding is a tradition of caretaking and healing that creates the feeling of being surrounded, supported, and loved.<\/p>\n This practice is done using a long strip of cloth that is specially wrapped around the abdomen from the hips up to below the breast line. The Bengkung style of belly binding shown on this page is rooted in Malaysian culture. Also, various other countries and cultures worldwide use their own form of belly binding for thousands of years to support the healing process.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What are the benefits of Belly Binding?” open_toggle_text_color=”#00a599″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How long should I wear the binding?” open_toggle_text_color=”#00a599″ title_tablet=”Should I practice using the TENS rental?” title_phone=”Should I practice using the TENS rental?” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ vertical_offset_tablet=”0″ vertical_offset_phone=”0″ horizontal_offset_tablet=”0″ horizontal_offset_phone=”0″ background_color_gradient_direction_tablet=”180deg” background_color_gradient_direction_phone=”180deg” background_color_gradient_stops_tablet=”#2b87da 0%|#29c4a9 100%” background_color_gradient_stops_phone=”#2b87da 0%|#29c4a9 100%” background_color_gradient_start_position_tablet=”0%” background_color_gradient_start_position_phone=”0%” background_color_gradient_end_position_tablet=”100%” background_color_gradient_end_position_phone=”100%” z_index_tablet=”1″ z_index_phone=”1″ hover_transition_duration_tablet=”300ms” hover_transition_duration_phone=”300ms” hover_transition_delay_tablet=”0ms” hover_transition_delay_phone=”0ms” body_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” body_text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” body_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” body_text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” body_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” body_text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” body_link_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” body_link_text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” body_link_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” body_link_text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” body_link_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” body_link_text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” body_ul_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” body_ul_text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” body_ul_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” body_ul_text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” body_ul_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” body_ul_text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” body_ol_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” body_ol_text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” body_ol_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” body_ol_text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” body_ol_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” body_ol_text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” body_quote_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” body_quote_text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” body_quote_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” body_quote_text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” body_quote_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” body_quote_text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_horizontal_phone=”0px” box_shadow_vertical_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_vertical_phone=”0px” box_shadow_blur_tablet=”40px” box_shadow_blur_phone=”40px” box_shadow_spread_tablet=”0px” box_shadow_spread_phone=”0px” text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” toggle_text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” toggle_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” toggle_text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” toggle_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” toggle_text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” closed_toggle_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=”0px” closed_toggle_text_shadow_horizontal_length_phone=”0px” closed_toggle_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=”0px” closed_toggle_text_shadow_vertical_length_phone=”0px” closed_toggle_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=”1px” closed_toggle_text_shadow_blur_strength_phone=”1px” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Traditionally, the Bengkung Belly Bind is done for the entire postpartum period, which is 40 days. This is not practical for many due to modern-day living and demands.<\/p>\n Our clients have found that binding for 6-12 hours daily over 2 weeks is highly effective. As your abdomen shrinks the binding will shift and allow you to focus on specific areas.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=” What makes belly binding different from western binders? ” open_toggle_text_color=”#00a599″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n The Bengkung Belly Bind is a CUSTOM FIT specifically for you and your body. It is a long wrap that covers from under the breast line all the way down to below the hips. This way, it doesn\u2019t just work on the waist, but also helps the rib cage and shrink the hips go back to their former dimensions. It also stays put when you move, so it doesn\u2019t press on the abdomen.<\/p>\n Girdles or over-the-counter wraps, that only bind the abdomen, amy push down on the pelvic floor muscles and organs, which could potentially cause or worsen pelvic, uterine, or bladder prolapse if used in correctly. The custom fit cannot be found anywhere else, and this improves the results you will see.<\/p>\n The traditional belly bind is a custom fit for your body every time it is applied. It\u2019s made of soft materials, which many people find more comfortable.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Can I still belly bind if I have a c-section?” open_toggle_text_color=”#00a599″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]Yes, you can still receive belly binding if you have a c-section. The practitioner will wait until 4 \u2013 6 weeks postpartum, based on your healing and recovery.<\/p>\n The most effective belly bind stretches from just below your bust to about mid-hip, near your pelvic bone. It is still easy enough to pull your underwear out from under the bind the first time you use the bathroom and when you\u2019re finished, simply pull them up over the bind or tuck them back underneath.\u00a0<\/p>\n Some prefer to wear a loose-fitting skirt or yoga pants on top.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What is the fee? ” open_toggle_text_color=”#00a599″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n WDC metro clients (DC, MD, NoVA):<\/strong><\/p>\n The fee is $185 for one Belly binding wrap, 90 minutes of binding instruction in person, and a 45-minute follow-up via web conferencing.

She educated me on preventive care of how it pushes back my ligaments and muscles that were stretched while I carried my son for 9 months. She bound me and then taught me how to do it myself.\u00a0 Belly Binding was wonderful to close the gap so diastasis recti<\/a> and flatten my tummy over time. I\u00a0 wore it for 40 days and it worked. I even slept in it. I still wear it monthly to help with period cramps and it helps. I’m glad Vee introduced me to this ancient but very helpful practice.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial author=”Susan, Virtual client” quote_icon_color=”#f47956″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” disabled_on=”off|off|off” admin_label=”section” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ background_color=”#a3a3a3″ custom_padding_tablet=”50px|0|50px|0″ custom_padding_phone=”” global_module=”1521″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row admin_label=”row” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Get In Touch” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_layout=”dark” use_border_color=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Get In Touch Contact Form” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_layout=”dark” z_index_tablet=”500″ use_border_color=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n\n <\/p> \u00a0FAQs:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
