tough as in painful? or just inconvenient. what if you had not much tone there to begin with, would it be pointless - or still help? Rani, I'd like the PM message too please!

Moms, I have posted her # here:

Her English isn't very good, so best to call her in the evenings, you can speak to one of her flatmates and they'll pass on the message.
You'll need to get your own wraps or even a girdle works. She charged me around $250 and that included both mommy and baby.Founded GeoBaby in 2002

Indonesian Post-Natal Massage & Wrap -- 3.5 weeks to go and STILL LOOKING
Hello All,
I am still searching for someone who does this here.
Rani, a few questions for you:
1. how long is a session?
2. what type of oils does she use? (you mentioned we need to provide our own wraps/girdle...)
3. is it an Indian massage or Indonesian/Thai that she does?
4. I guess you were happy with her massages - did they work for you?
Yep, 3.5 weeks to go! Gotta pack a bag soon!
Thanks for the help!

1. how long is a session?
The baby massage is around 20 mins and she'll also bathe baby.
Mummy massage is around an hour. In addition to massaging my belly, I had a lot of blocked milk ducts and was in a lot of pain, so she helped me with that.
2. what type of oils does she use? (you mentioned we need to provide our own wraps/girdle...) We used Almond Oil. You can get it at the Indian Grocery stores. She actually picked up the bottle for me, as she she lives in TST.
3. is it an Indian massage or Indonesian/Thai that she does? She does the Indian massage.
4. I guess you were happy with her massages - did they work for you?
Yes, I looked and felt great for the first 6-months. I lost all the baby weight as I was also nursing D.
However, once we started weaning, I put it all back on and more. Sorry, I know it's not what you want to hear. I should have started working out but I just didn't have the time. I launched GeoBaby and unfortunately had a difficult helper. Hence, balancing work/ and D was a real struggle.Last edited by rani; 05-23-2007 at 07:31 AM.

I've 2 Indonesian wrap that you tied all around your tummy. I know how to do it, but I dunno about the massage. What I know you put some of traditional herbs or something (have to ask my mum about it). The wrap about 4 metres long. If you are interested pls let me know.
