The Power of Postnatal Massage: Reviving Malaysian Heritage Through MAMACARE Training

At Tim Bodycare SKM Massage Academy, we believe that massage therapy isn't just a skill—it's a heritage. One of the most cherished yet under-recognized practices in Malaysia is Postnatal Massage, or more fondly known as MAMACARE. Rooted deeply in traditional Malay culture, this therapy supports new mothers physically, emotionally, and spiritually during the most vulnerable time in their lives—after childbirth.

🧖‍♀️ What Is MAMACARE?

MAMACARE is a structured postnatal massage programme designed specifically to help mothers recover and rejuvenate after delivery. More than a luxury, it is a therapeutic necessity—approved by Malaysia’s Department of Skills Development (Jabatan Pembangunan Kemahiran - JPK) under NOSS Code Q869-002-4:2016.

The practice includes:

• Full body massage techniques tailored to postpartum recovery

• Techniques to relieve “angin” (wind) and water retention

• Uterus repositioning massage (sengkak rahim)

• Breast massage for milk flow (galactagogue stimulation)

• Bengkung wrapping for abdominal support

👩‍⚕️ Why It Matters: Health Beyond the Hospital

Modern medicine often focuses on hospital care, but many women return home without continued support. MAMACARE fills this gap. It addresses:

• Hormonal balance

• Back and pelvic pain

• Lactation issues

• Postnatal depression

• Body detoxification

These treatments are not just physical—they offer emotional care, self-esteem restoration, and a spiritual reconnection to the body.

📚 Learn the Skills. Become Certified.

At Tim Bodycare, we offer accredited MAMACARE courses based on the official NOSS (National Occupational Skills Standards) framework. Our modules cover:

✅ Basic to advanced massage strokes
✅ Cultural hygiene and postpartum rituals

Upon completion, students receive SKM (Sijil Kemahiran Malaysia) certification—a recognized credential for massage therapists in Malaysia.
