Hola, Internet travelers! I am a Maliswali residing in New Jersey. Postpartum Massage Therapy is in actual fact practiced by Asian-Indian females, usually a village elder. Postnatal Massage techniques are taught by Great-Aunts and the like, and the benefits of Postnatal Massage were well-known for eons. These sage helpers were aware of herbs. The new Mom was aided in getting back to baseline, and this healer is known as a Malishwali, or "Massage Guardian." The infant and Mom both get a in-home post natal massage session. The traditions go back ages, but in fact Indian civilization goes back even before the era historians agree upon as the start of life that would be recognizable to a modern person. I am known as Chakrika, which means Lakshmi.
