Your body carried and brought your baby into the world. After birth, it needs time, rest and attention to recover. Between short nights and days set by the baby's rhythm, this treatment gives you a real pause, just for you.
It is a full-body massage with warm sesame oil, originating from India, complemented by a pelvic wrap. Gentle strokes, friction and stretches invite deep relaxation, while the wrap supports your body through this time of transition.
A doula's support always complements medical care.
Ayurveda is a traditional Indian medicine, practiced for more than 5,000 years. Its name comes from the Sanskrit ayur, life, and veda, knowledge: it literally means “the knowledge of life.”
It is based on harmony between body and mind. A holistic and preventive approach, it invites each person to adopt a way of life that suits them, to live long and in good health.
We begin over a herbal tea, to get to know each other or catch up, and talk about your birth, your first weeks and what you need right now.
About 1.5 hours of massage with warm sesame oil, with a pelvic wrap, adapted to your recovery and comfort.
We take a few minutes to talk about what you felt, before gently returning to your day.
Practiced for a long time in many cultures, the pelvic wrap supports women after childbirth. Using a length of cloth, the pelvis is gently wrapped and snugged, in a calm, containing moment.
During pregnancy, under the effect of hormones, the ligaments loosen and the pelvis widens to let your baby through. After birth, it often stays more mobile and less stable for several weeks. The wrap gives it gentle support: many new mothers then feel less pressure, heaviness and pain in the lower back and pelvis, and regain a steadier posture.
It is also a powerful moment emotionally: feeling wrapped and gathered together helps you find your footing and mark the end of this intense period, so you can welcome what comes next with calm.
The Ayurvedic treatment is also included in the postnatal package: sessions to support you through your first weeks as parents, and a massage to take care of you.

Before each treatment, we review your health and recovery together.
We choose together what suits you best: at your home, anywhere in Ho Chi Minh City, or in a calm, welcoming venue that I suggest. If the treatment takes place at your home, I bring everything needed.
If the treatment takes place at your home, your baby can stay near you or be looked after by the co-parent. We can pause for a feed if needed.
