The Benefits of Belly Binding Postpartum with Sacredsong Doula

Belly binding is a traditional postpartum practice that has been utilized for centuries to support new mothers during their recovery after childbirth. Bengkung belly binding, in particular, is an ancient Malaysian method that involves wrapping a long strip of cloth around the abdomen from the hips to the ribcage. This technique is highly valued for its numerous physical and emotional benefits, and Gabe, the skilled doula behind Sacredsong Birth & Wellness in North Carolina, offers this traditional practice to her clients with a modern touch.

Gabe is an experienced birth doula and educator who recommends belly binding for its significant healing properties. After childbirth, the birthing body undergoes tremendous changes, and the support provided by belly binding can aid in the recovery process. The gentle pressure exerted by the binding helps to support the abdominal muscles, which have been stretched and weakened during pregnancy. This support can aid in the retraction of the uterus, promote better posture, and reduce the common postpartum discomforts such as back pain.

In addition to its physical benefits, belly binding can offer emotional support. The act of binding is often described as a comforting and nurturing ritual that helps new mothers feel secure and cared for. Gabe’s approach to belly binding emphasizes this nurturing aspect, providing not just physical support but also emotional encouragement during the postpartum period.

Gabe’s Bengkung belly binding wraps are made to order in North Carolina, crafted with care from 100% batik cotton fabric. Each wrap is 16 yards long and 9 inches wide, ensuring ample coverage and support. By choosing Sacredsong Doula for your belly binding needs, you are not only supporting a local artisan but also receiving a product that is imbued with the knowledge and experience of a skilled doula.
