Why is a Postnatal Massage essential?

Your body has done something incredible, now it’s time to support its healing journey. Our Signature 2-in-1 Postnatal Massage blends the time-honoured wisdom of Traditional Chinese massage (TCM) techniques with the restorative benefits of Javanese massage. This powerful combination promotes circulation, expels wind, supports womb recovery, and helps you regain your strength—physically and emotionally.

Postnatal care is often overlooked, but it is just as vital as prenatal support. The weeks after childbirth involve significant physical and emotional changes, and a dedicated massage routine can make a world of difference.

We offer customisable home recovery packages (7, 10, 15, or 20 days) so you can experience these benefits in the comfort and privacy of your home—especially during confinement.

Let us help you heal, restore, and feel like yourself again, with the best of both worlds in every session.

Addressing Common Postpartum Discomforts

  • Back and shoulder pain
  • Pelvic pain and instability
  • Muscle tension and soreness
  • Swelling and edema
  • Caesarean section (C-Section) recovery
  • Emotional stress and fatigue

Benefits of a Postnatal Massage

Postnatal massages are usually done in the comfort and privacy of your home during the confinement period. Some clients also prefer to have their postnatal massages done in our spa.

  • Relieve neck and shoulder pain from carrying and breastfeeding baby
  • Help to restore the uterus to its original state
  • Eliminate excess body fluids and reduces water retention
  • Aid in weight loss
  • Improves blood circulation
  • Expel toxin and wind

Massage Techniques

You will be positioned comfortably on your bed or a massage table, lying in a supine (on your back) or prone (on your stomach) position. Our massage strokes, carefully combining Javanese and Meridian points, effectively reduce swelling, relieve pain, and regulate hormones.

Binder & Jamu

We use Jamu paste of pure quality, with a higher concentration than creams, aiding in preventing sensitivity and effectively shrinking the uterus. Jamu masks are used in postnatal massages for various benefits, including promoting lochia discharge, dispelling wind & dampness, and improving milk production. After applying the jamu mask, our therapist will wrap your abdomen with our cotton bengkung wrap that is breathable and washable.

Focus Areas

Our skilled therapists specialise in addressing postnatal areas of tension, focusing on the feet, ankles, lower legs, and lower back. Our targeted massage techniques aim to alleviate specific discomforts such as foot pain, ankle swelling, and leg tension, offering much-needed relief and enhancing overall well-being during your postpartum recovery.

Our Postnatal Massage Oils

Our massage oils, infused with Lemongrass and Ginger, not only provide a delightful aroma but are also effective in expelling wind, reducing water retention and bloating, as well as aid in slimming, without affecting breastfeeding.

What Mums Say About Our Treatments

Lovely time with Sue, my postnatal massage therapist. Her experience and professionalism made my recovery swift and enjoyable! She adapts to each customer and I can tell that she truly cares for us based on the way she remembers the specific pain points and tailors her technique to massage, balancing effectiveness without overdoing it.

I would recommend her to all my friends and contacts who are going through post natal, regardless of natural or C section (which J did) because i've never felt better!

Coming from a person who regularly goes to massages, much thanks to Sue and BMB!

Bonus for buying the package - complimentary infant massage!

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

    How is a postnatal massage different from a regular massage?

    Our Postnatal Massage is adapted to suit the individual needs and recovery process of mothers after childbirth. Our certified therapists are trained to provide gentle and tailored massages to ensure comfort and support during the healing process.

    When is the best time to start a postnatal massage?

    It is generally safe to start a postnatal massage a few days after a vaginal delivery or once you receive clearance from your healthcare provider.

    At BMB, you can schedule your massage sessions after 7 days for normal delivery. For caesarean section (C-section), we recommend beginning sessions after 3 weeks or with the recommendation of your gynae.

    How frequently should I schedule postnatal massage sessions?

    The frequency of sessions can vary based on individual needs. Many mothers find benefit in scheduling sessions regularly, especially during the early postpartum period. Your therapist can provide personalised recommendations based on your unique situation.

    Can I combine postnatal massage with other postpartum therapies?

    Yes, a postnatal massage can be complemented with other postpartum therapies. Do consult with our certified therapists to ensure that they align with your individual recovery needs.

    I had a Caesarean birth. Can I still book a postnatal massage?

    In the event of a caesarean section, post-natal massage can only be performed after the incision has closed properly. usually about 2-4 weeks after delivery. Before then, mummies can still be massaged on other parts of their body to soothe body aches. Also relieve water retention, without disturbing the fresh wound on the tummy.

    We also recommend our Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage for mothers who have gone through Caesarean delivery. This massage aims to support your body's natural healing processes after a C-section.

    Is transportation included in the home-service postnatal massage?

    Yes, transportation is included for our home-service Postnatal Massage, but only for package bookings. We offer the convenience of bringing our certified professionals to your doorstep for a relaxing and personalised postnatal massage experience. Please note that transportation is exclusively provided for clients who opt for our comprehensive package options.

    Can I change my therapist mid-treatment?

    A change of therapist can be fulfilled upon request, at no additional cost.
