Book any one — or mother-and-baby care together.

How do I book a massage at home in Kolkata?

Open the Zaruri Hai app, tap Massage at Home, choose the service — prenatal, postnatal or baby — and pick a slot. A verified female therapist comes to you with everything needed. It takes a couple of minutes.

Are your therapists female and trained?

Yes — always. Every session is carried out by a female therapist who is trained in mother-and-baby massage and background-verified. For a new mother and a newborn, a skilled, gentle and trustworthy touch is everything.

Can I get the same therapist for every session?

Wherever possible, yes. For a recovery package, many mothers prefer the comfort of one familiar therapist who understands their body and routine across sessions. Mention it when you book, and we'll do our best to keep your therapist consistent.

What is postnatal massage?

Postnatal (or postpartum) massage is a gentle full-body massage for a new mother after delivery. Rooted in the Indian tradition of a Japa maid for daily newborn care, it helps the body recover, eases aches, and restores energy through the delicate weeks after childbirth.

When can I start postnatal massage after delivery?

When your body is ready — and your doctor agrees. As a general guide, normal deliveries usually begin around 7–14 days after birth, and C-section deliveries after about 3 weeks, once healing allows. Always start with your doctor's clearance.

What are the benefits of postnatal massage?

For a new mother, regular postnatal massage can:

• ease back, shoulder and joint pain
• improve blood circulation and reduce swelling
• support gentle abdominal and posture recovery
• aid relaxation, sleep and postpartum mood
• help you simply feel like yourself again

It's care your body genuinely needs — not a luxury.

Can postnatal massage support lactation and recovery?

Many mothers find that gentle, regular massage helps them relax, rest better and feel more comfortable while breastfeeding, and traditional postnatal care is valued for supporting overall recovery. It complements your doctor's guidance — it doesn't replace medical advice.

Will postnatal massage help with post-pregnancy body shape?

It can support your recovery — improving circulation, easing fluid retention, and helping your posture and core feel stronger over time. Paired with gentle abdominal binding, many mothers feel more comfortable in their body, though massage works alongside rest and a healthy routine, not instead of them.

What is prenatal (pregnancy) massage?

Prenatal massage is a gentle, carefully adapted massage for expecting mothers. It soothes the aches of a changing body and helps you stay comfortable through pregnancy.

Is pregnancy massage safe?

Yes — when it's done by a trained therapist with the right technique and your doctor's go-ahead. Our therapists use gentle, pregnancy-safe strokes and positions to relieve back pain, leg swelling and tension, never deep or risky pressure. Always check with your doctor first.

What is baby massage, and why does it matter?

Baby massage (malish) is the gentle, traditional oil massage Indian families have given newborns for generations. Beyond the bonding, it genuinely supports your baby's growth and comfort.

What are the benefits of baby massage?

A regular, gentle baby massage can:

• improve sleep and calm fussiness
• aid digestion and relieve gas and colic
• strengthen muscles and support healthy growth
• boost circulation and immunity
• deepen the bond between baby and parent

When can I start baby massage?

Once the umbilical cord stump has dried and fallen off and the navel has healed, gentle baby massage can begin. Our therapist keeps every stroke soft and safe for delicate newborn skin.

Is baby massage safe for a premature or very small baby?

With extra care, and your paediatrician's guidance. For premature or low-weight babies, our therapists use especially gentle, light strokes and shorter sessions. Always check with your doctor before starting.

Which oils do you use?

Gentle, skin-friendly oils suited to each. For mothers, warm herbal oils help relax muscles and aid recovery; for babies, mild oils such as pure coconut oil are used. Have a preference or a known sensitivity? Tell us when you book.

Do you offer abdominal binding (tummy wrap) too?

On request, yes. Traditional postnatal care often includes a gentle abdominal wrap (Udaraveshtana) to support the tummy as the body recovers. Your therapist can guide you on safe, comfortable binding — never tight or forced.

Can I book a single session or a full package?

Both. Book a one-time session whenever you need it, or a multi-day recovery package spread across several weeks for steady postnatal and baby care — whatever suits your recovery and budget.

How many days of postnatal massage are recommended?

Traditionally, postnatal care runs for around 30 to 40 days after delivery, which is why many families choose a package. You can start with a few sessions and extend as you feel the benefit — there's no obligation to commit everything upfront.

How long does each session take?

A mother's massage usually runs 45–60 minutes, and a baby's massage around 20 minutes. Adding a bath for mother and baby takes a little longer. Your therapist won't rush — comfort comes first.

How much does massage at home cost in Kolkata?

You see the price upfront in the app before you book — clear per-session and package pricing, no hidden charges.

*Your exact pricing shows in the app for the service you choose.

How do I pay for the session?

Payment runs through the app on the price you've already seen and agreed — no cash confusion, no surprises at the door. Your bookings stay saved in one place for easy repeat sessions.

Do I need to arrange anything before the session?

Very little. Your therapist brings the oils and essentials; you just need a quiet, comfortable space and a couple of clean towels. Tell us in advance if you'd like a particular oil or have any health condition to keep in mind.

Why choose at-home massage instead of a clinic or spa?

Because you shouldn't have to step out. Just after delivery — or heavily pregnant — travelling to a clinic is tiring and avoidable. At home you rest in your own space, skip the traffic, keep your baby close, and can lie down to sleep the moment your session ends.

Are the sessions private and comfortable?

Completely. Care is given by a female therapist, in the privacy of your own home, at a pace that suits you. Your comfort, modesty and peace of mind are respected throughout.

Can the whole package be done for mother and baby together?

Yes. Many families book mother-and-baby care in the same visit — the therapist massages the baby and the mother in one appointment, often with a bath for both. One booking, complete care.
