Bengkung is a Malaysian postpartum treatment method. A soft cotton bandage is used to manually tie around the woman’s buttocks to the upper abdomen, according to an individual body shape. It is more effective and supportive compared to other waistbands.
In our abdomen, there are 8 abdominal muscles called the “Rectus Abdominis Muscles”. During pregnancy, the gap between the rectus abdominis muscles will be stretched to allow more space in the mother’s belly, which leads to diastasis rectus abdominis. Studies have shown that approximately 70% of pregnant women will experience varying degrees of rectus abdominis separation. The deeper the separation of the rectus abdominis, the weaker the abdominal muscles and the weaker the lower back support, this explains why so many pregnant women are prone to low back pain.
After delivery, the separated rectus abdominis muscle does not return to its original position immediately, and it may take several months or even longer. On the other hand, one of the hormones called “Relaxin” is released, causing the rectus abdominis muscle to separate, and the pelvis to expand. With the use of belly binding tied around the mother's waist, abdomen and pelvis for about 6-8 hours, it helps to tighten the loose joints yet the mother can maintain her daily activities.
Advantage of belly binding:
-Reduce rectus abdominis diastasis
-Tighten the abdomen and pelvis
-Prevent uterus prolapse
-Restore the uterus and other internal organs to their original positions
-Improve low back pain problem
-Abdominal massage repels belly wind and reduces stretch marks

En quoi ça consiste
Most of the appointment is spent mapping out what’s going on in your body and choosing points, then resting with fine needles in place for a stretch — sometimes with heat, cups or electrical stimulation — and you leave with a sense of what was treated and whether more sessions make sense.
