The Miles Circuit (and Beyond) with Creator Megan Hamilton
We are thrilled to offer an exclusive training opportunity with Megan (Miles) Hamilton, the creator of The Miles Circuit! This first-of-its-kind workshop provides birth professionals with official training on using The Miles Circuit effectively for both prenatal and in-labor support.

This hands-on workshop will deepen your understanding of when, why, and how to use The Miles Circuit, how to adapt positions for different body types, and how to support clients both in person and virtually. You’ll also explore somatic exercises to help regulate the nervous system during pregnancy and labor—an invaluable tool for birth professionals.

Hands-on practice with The Miles Circuit positions
Exclusive video instructions + digital client resources
Lifetime discount on online trainings & events through InBody Flow
A personal discount code for Megan’s prenatal & postpartum wellness services

Belly Binding
What is Belly Binding?
Bengkung belly binding is a traditional Malay postpartum practice that uses a special cloth to wrap the abdomen and hips of a woman during the initial 6 weeks after giving birth. This age-old tradition incorporates the use of herbs and warming the body which aims to provide physical, mental, and emotional support to the mother. This practice practice promotes warming, healing, cleasing and slimming for the postpartum body.
