Post delivery care for a mother is a very significant step after the birthing of a child. A mother needs to be looked after, and with Ayurveda postnatal care, it is possible to give the attention a mother deserves after delivery. Soothika Paricharya is the postnatal care designed for mothers, keeping in mind the traditional roots of Ayurveda.
Veshtanam or Postpartum Abdominal Binding is the process of carefully and tightly wrapping the belly of the mother in a long cotton cloth, everyday after bath for 5 to 6 hours. The benefits of this are limitless. In Ayurveda, keeping the vata dosha (energies) in check is of high importance. This abdominal binding process is a postnatal therapy that ensures your energy remains balanced and that you ultimately feel relaxed.
The Postpartum Abdominal Binding process is done at Matt India, Alappuzha, in Kochi with extreme expertise. The primary goal is to ensure that the mother feels cared for. WIth this postnatal therapy, the binding gives support to both, the back and the abdomen. The cloth around the abdomen actually feels quite comforting and it even calms the nervous system. It aids in improving the digestion system and brings back all the organs into alignment. Mothers might find it interesting that it also prevents the stomach from sagging post delivery and decreases bloating. The best benefit that comes from this is that the posture of the mother is corrected, the benefits of which are two-fold. Better posture helps the mother in holding on to their child for longer periods of time and also allows breastfeeding with significant support.
One thing to take note of is that this process should be postponed for a few days for mother who have undergone a C-section delivery, and wait till the operative scar has healed. The operated area, upon being compressed under the cloth might lead to an incisional hernia. Moreover, it can cause constant skin irritation and disturbance.
The process of postpartum abdominal binding is quite easy and effective, but it is always recommended to do it under professional supervision. It is important to do it correctly in order to ensure none of the organs are being pressed together and might cause any kind of pain.
