Frequently Asked QuestionsExpert Insights on Kerala Ayurvedic Post-Natal & Maternal Care
Find authoritative answers from our resident BAMS doctors regarding Kerala post-delivery confinement care (Prasava Raksha), treatment safety, diet, and residential stay benefits.
What is Kerala Prasava Raksha and why is it important after childbirth?
Prasava Raksha is a 45-day traditional Kerala postpartum care regimen that uses medicated oil massages (Abhyanga), herbal belly binding, warm herbal baths, and Vata-balancing nutrition to heal the uterus, restore energy, strengthen abdominal muscles, and prevent chronic joint pains in later life.
When should a new mother begin post-natal Ayurvedic treatments?
For normal vaginal deliveries, treatments typically commence on the 7th to 10th day postpartum. For C-section deliveries, gentle therapies begin around the 14th to 21st day, after initial incision healing, always under strict doctor evaluation.
Are Ayurvedic therapies like Sirodhara and Kashaya Dhara safe during breastfeeding?
Yes, absolutely. All oils and herbal decoctions used at Mother & Baby Ayurveda are 100% natural, classical formulations tailored to be completely safe for lactating mothers and infants.
What dietary support is provided for lactating mothers?
We serve freshly prepared Satvik meals, including traditional Pathfinder, Marunnu Kanji (medicated herbal rice gruels), galactagogue herbal teas, and Vata-pacifying soups that boost breast milk production and aid digestion.
What is the recommended duration for a post-natal resort stay?
While a complete Prasava Raksha cycle is 40 to 45 days, we offer flexible residential packages ranging from 14 days, 21 days, to 28 days based on individual health needs and physician recommendations.
Can family members stay with the mother and baby?
Yes! Our Royal Suites and Executive Suites feature spacious double bedrooms, living rooms, and private dining areas designed to accommodate husbands and family members comfortably.
