Postpartum Recovery

Natural Belly Binding

During pregnancy, moms will experience changes in their entire body shape. The loose hormones and physiological changes during pregnancy cause the entire skeleton to expand, causing the pelvis and hips to widen, the uterus to expand, the internal organs to be forced to shift, and the belly to swell, all of which can cause changes in appearance and a gradual “loss of shape”.

The ancient method of belly binding can lift the sagging uterus and internal organs after childbirth and prevent the internal organs from being compressed, which may cause difficulties in breathing and affect blood flow, even deformation of the internal organs. This program can also prevent sagging of the abdomen and achieve the goal of slimming. In addition, you may also find other symptoms such as back pain being improved.

Postpartum Recovery
Why is it so important to repair damaged rectus abdominis muscles?

During pregnancy, moms will produce hormones that soften the abdominal muscles and bones, allowing more space to accommodate the fetus. This particular physical change, however, will cause the uterus to expand and stretch the rectus abdominis muscle, leading to many postpartum issues, including separation of the rectus abdominis muscle and displacement of internal organs. At CB Femi’s Health, we use a combination of traditional and modern methods to help postpartum mothers restore their prenatal physique by repairing damaged rectus abdominis muscles.

What is a separation of the rectus abdominis muscle (Diastasis Recti)?

During pregnancy, the growing uterus stretches the muscles of the abdomen. This can cause the two parallel bands of muscle that were originally joined in the middle of the abdomen (rectus abdominis) to separate at an abnormal distance, a condition known as rectus abdominis separation.

There are many reasons for the separation of the rectus abdominis muscle, such as:

These are all important factors that can lead to separation of the rectus abdominis muscle during late pregnancy and after delivery. The separation of the rectus abdominis not only affects the appearance, but is usually accompanied by problems such as internal organ prolapse, leading to nausea and vomiting or indigestion. In severe cases, it can also compress the bladder, leading to urinary leakage or constipation due to insufficient abdominal pressure. When the abdomen is flaccid, the support is reduced and the weight is also transferred to the waist and spine, which can easily cause back pain for mothers who are weak after giving birth.

2) During the treatment, we first use the anti-allergy cotton fabric at the shaping point to help avoid skin sensitivity. You can feel the bone structure being adjusted whether you sit or stand. The treatment will not cause difficulty in breathing or hinter movement. Please avoid overeating, otherwise, you may feel bloated and uncomfortable after sitting down. The belly binding normally lasts for 6 to 8 hours and then can be removed by yourself. Make sure you complete the entire course which will significantly help improve the shape of the abdomen.

Best Time For Belly Bingding

​​The best time for belly binding is within the first year of labour. Receiving the treatment within this time frame can significantly reshape the boday, stabilize the bones and improve muscles. Even if you’ve past the first year time frame, you can still achieve the goal of body shaping by receiving this treatment.

When can I start the belly binding treatment?

Natural Birth/Vaginal Birth:You can start 3-4 weeks after labour.

C-Section: It is recommended that you start after 6 weeks until the wound has recovered. Please consult your doctor about the condition of your wound. The ligature will avoid the incision position to avoid pressure on the wound. If you need to go to work after treatment, we can perform it by binding the area between the pelvis and below the sternum so that you will not experience any difficulties sitting down. The whole process is done manually, therefore the position and strength of the dressing can be adjusted accordingly.
