Ayurvedic Postpartum Home Visits Amsterdam
Specialist body work, Ayurvedic wisdom and deep restoration — in the comfort of your own home
Your body just moved a human being through it. Your womb is healing. Your hormones are reorganising. Your nervous system is recalibrating from one of the most intense experiences of your life.
And most of the time, the world expects you to be fine within a week.
Ayurvedic postpartum care says otherwise. For over five thousand years, Ayurveda has understood what modern medicine is only beginning to study — that the 40 days after birth are one of the most critical windows of a woman's long-term health. How you are cared for in this window shapes your hormonal health, your immunity, your emotional resilience and your sense of self for years to come.
I come to you. You do not need to get dressed, leave your baby or be anywhere but your own bed.
Who this is for
This care is for you if:
-
You want deep physical restoration — not just practical support
-
You are drawn to a holistic, body-centred approach to postpartum recovery
-
You want your birth story to be witnessed and honoured
-
You want to address your womb, your hormones, your tissues and your nervous system at the root level
-
You are an expat without family nearby and want the kind of tending that your culture of origin would have provided
-
You had a complicated birth, a C-section or a difficult recovery and want specialist support
Whether your birth was gentle or intense, at home or in hospital, vaginal or by C-section — this care is available to you.
​
What each visit includes
​
Every visit is approximately three hours and is tailored entirely to where you are on that day — your body, your energy, your birth story and your emotional landscape. Treatments are chosen from the following:
-
Birth story integration — a safe and gentle space to share, be witnessed and be honoured for what you have moved through
-
Marma therapy* — Ayurvedic therapeutic touch on vital energy points that govern recovery redirecting the flow of prana (vital energy) and emotional rebalance
-
Bengkung belly binding — traditional abdominal support for structural recovery and the feeling of being held
-
Castor oil packs — deep healing for the abdominal organs and uterine tissues and the sacrum
-
Womb Moxa* — warming therapeutic heat for the womb, the liver and the spleen, root of post-birth energy
-
Yoni steaming* — herbal steam therapy for perineal healing and womb recovery after the first 10 days postpartum
-
Sitz bath* — perineal healing during the first 5 days postpartum
-
Shiro Pichu* — nervous system and sleep regulation
Organic, plant-based oils and herbs. All materials are brought by me, no additional cost — you need nothing except yourself.
​
How the visits unfold
​One visit can bring immediate relief. True healing unfolds over time.
Visit 1 — Immediate grounding
From 3 days after vaginal birth or 2 weeks after C-section The first visit is about landing. Soothing the body, tending the womb and the perineum, calming the nervous system after the intensity of birth. We begin gently — with presence, warmth and the kind of attention your body has been waiting for.
Visit 2 — Deeper healing
Restoring strength, balancing digestion, softening tensions that have been held since birth. Space to share your birth story — to be witnessed and honoured for what you have just moved through.
Visit 3 — Integration
Preparing for longer-term wellbeing. Building Ayurvedic practices and nourishment rituals to carry you forward as kraamzorg ends and the real postpartum begins.
​
Visits 4 & 5 — Continued renewal
Anchoring support across the 40-day window. So you never feel alone in your transition into motherhood — physically or emotionally.
​
The Rebozo Closing Ritual — a rite of passage
Birth opens the body — physically, emotionally, energetically. The Rebozo Closing Ritual closes it.
This is a 2.5-hour sacred postpartum ceremony that honours the woman who has crossed the threshold of birth and is ready to step fully into the next chapter of her life. It can be added to the final postpartum visit or booked as a standalone offering.
The ritual includes:
-
Womb meditation and grounding
-
Birth story sharing and witnessing
-
Full body warm oil massage
-
Rebozo sealing — the body wrapped and honoured from feet to head using traditional rebozo technique
-
Closing
Available from 6 weeks after vaginal birth, 8 weeks after C-section — and after VBAC and birth loss. This ritual can also mark other significant life transitions — the end of a relationship, a health journey or any threshold where you are ready to close one door and open another.
​
You are welcome to bring someone you love to witness you.

Frequently Asked Questions
​
When can visits begin? From 2-3 days after a vaginal birth and from 2 weeks after a C-section. If your birth or recovery was complicated, we discuss the right timing together.
​
How far apart are the visits? Ideally one to two visit per week — spreading support across the first 40 days. We agree on timing together based on your recovery and your life.
​
Do I need to prepare anything? Nothing. I bring all oils, herbs and materials. You just need to be warm and comfortable in your own space.
​
Can I book during pregnancy? Yes — and I encourage it. Booking in advance means we can do postpartum planning together and your support is confirmed from the moment you need it.
​
Is this available after a C-section? Yes — with adjusted timing and treatments specifically appropriate for surgical recovery.
​
How is this different from postpartum doula support? Ayurvedic postpartum care is specialist body work and treatment — each visit has a clinical and ritual depth that addresses your physical recovery at the root. Postpartum doula support is flexible presence — practical, emotional, adaptive to whatever you need that day. Many families benefit from both.
