Belly Binding + Peri-Vaginal Steaming Training — April 2026
Hybrid training blending cultural lineage, hands-on expertise and deep postpartum wisdom.
This spring, Holistic Family Doulas will be hosting a rare and profound training opportunity taught by Salwa Salim — ethnic Malay traditional practitioner, international speaker and founder of Birth Matron™.
This is an initiation into holistic postpartum care rooted in the rich, time-honored Malay traditions of Bengkung belly binding and peri-vaginal steaming, taught by a cultural holder of this sacred knowledge.
✨ Training Format
• Online foundations + theory
• In-person intensive, fully hands-on belly binding & steaming
• Online integration + Q&A
✨ Flexible Attendance Options
Participants have the option to register for one day or both days of training, depending on their interests and professional goals.
✨ You’ll learn:
• History, tradition, culture and applications
• Preparing the abdomen and herbs
• Safe practices and contraindications
• Step-by-step belly binding techniques
• Business integration and how to elevate your offerings
This training sets you apart. You will walk away confident in your skill, rooted in cultural context and connected to a global community of practitioners.
✨ Why this matters:
Traditional postpartum care holds profound wisdom — and our responsibility as doulas is to honor those who hold and protect this sacred knowledge, compensating and uplifting their work rather than using it without honoring its origins.
✨ Why it matters NOW:
Families are hungry for deeper, more supportive postpartum care. This training equips doulas to offer genuine, culturally grounded healing care that nourishes body, spirit and community.
