Benefits of Post
Natal Massage
New mothers always ask this question. "When can I
go back to my pre-pregnancy figure?" New mothers need to recuperate from childbirth and body
changes. Special meals are cooked for recuperation from childbirth whereas to recuperate from body
changes, we would engage a masseuse to provide post -natal massage.
A Must Have Drink and Dish
During Your Confinement
Period
A must have drink during confinement period is
RED DATES LONGAN DRINK. Different confinement nannies do it differently but the main
ingredients : red dates, wolfberries and dried logan are a must!
A must have dish is PIG'S TROTTER WITH GINGER AND
VINEGAR
Black vinegar purifies the blood and cleanses the
arteries while the ginger drives out the "wind". The brown sugar is to check on the "dampness" in
the body. As a precaution against the vinegar being too acidic and might weaken the stomach, the
glutinous ligaments and collagen of the pig's trotters are in the dish to serve as a lubricant. Sesame
oil is to promote blood circulation and the eggs to nourish the body.
