Frequently Asked Questions

 


How long will the treatment last?

You may feel most effective for at least 10-session treatment, 5 days per week. Saturdays and Sundays are rest days. If there’s doctor’s appointment during weekdays; treatment can be done on Saturdays. Postnatal Bellybinding Treatment will take 60 minutes, we suggest belly wrap to be kept on for at least 6-8 hours, you may keep on longer for better results. 


When can I start treatment?

Treatment that starts within 90 days after delivery achieves best results. 

For natural delivery, treatment can start 1 week after delivery. This allows you to have enough time to rest and prepare for the treatment. 

For C-section, it is best to start treatment 4-6 weeks after delivery. We suggest to consult with doctor before treatments to make sure the body is ready for abdominal massage and belly binding. If the wound has not recovered, we suggest to postpone treatment start date.


What are the reactions during bellybinding treatment?

During treatment, you may feel thirsty, urge to urinate and tired, this is due to stimulations to blood circulation and lymphatic system during massage. We suggest to drink plenty of water after treatment as it'll help to flush out the accumulated materials from your body.


When should I make an appointment?

Normally you may make an appointment 3 months prior delivery. Some mothers may choose to book earlier or later. Please contact us before due date, we will arrange treatment schedule tentatively. 


What should I do if I haven’t confirmed my delivery method and date?

Initial booking is to confirm no. of sessions and therapist available time slots. After Delivery, you may inform us final delivery method, we will then make final confirmation of treatment period. 


What should I do if the bookings are full?

When therapist bookings are full, please inform us your ideal treatment period, we will contact you if it is available later.


What do I need to prepare at home before starting the treatment?
