Traditional Postpartum Care 

“A woman is never more beautiful than after the birth of her first child” 

-Vietnamese saying

The methods I use revolve around the principles of rest, warmth, diet, and support. You have just been through what many cultures consider “woman’s war”(birth) and you have succeeded. You are to be treated as a hero-celebrated, nurtured, and admired. Your heart and uterus are returning to their pre-pregnancy size. You are energetically open and full of oxytocin. This is a very unique time for healing, one of three opportunities in your entire life (as per Chinese medicine).
