About Genteel | Our Story

Being a Singaporean Chinese mum, I have heard of all sorts of benefits of Malay herbal postnatal massage from older generations. After my first baby was born, I finally got to experience the magical effectsthat Jamu massage could do to reduce my tummy, which also helped me to gain relieve from water retention and a swollen tummy.

To be honest, alongside my joy at bringing a new life to this world, I was also very concerned about my figure. My body was awfully out of shape and I feared that I would not be able to return to a pre-pregnancy figure. It felt like I had to woken up from a bad dream, particularly when I saw my belly still about the size of the 7-month pregnant mother. After giving birth and having made the decision to do postnatal therapy, I anxiously waited for my own Jamu Therapist – Sandy. When meeting Sandy I was curious about her experience and techniques, fortunately she reassured my concerns first with her 20 years experience and then secondly with her soft personality but witty sense of humor. After the first day of being applied with Tapel, Sandy’s healing hands and using Bengkung binder, I found that my belly shrunk a lot and the water retention also remarkably was reduced. The heated stone breast massage was magical as it helped improve my breastfeeding. My milk production had increased from none to 50ml after just one session!!

Mums at Thomson Medical Centre also shared with me the remarkable effect of Jamu massage. They recommend Jamu massage and Bengkung to friends and family around them.

After experiencing the healing effects of Jamu massage myself, I decided to bring it to China and to share this gift with other Mums, so you too can enjoy premium postnatal care to help get back in shape, regain your confidence and beauty without having to leave the comfort of your home.
