Mayan Abdominal Massage

The Arvigo techniques of Mayan Abdominal Massage are founded on the ancient Mayan technique of abdominal massage which is an external non-invasive manipulation that repositions internal organs that have shifted, thereby restricting the flow of blood, lymph, nerve and chi.

Mayan Abdominal massage was developed by Dr Rosita Arvigo, who studied with Don Elijo Panti, the New York Times heralded “The last Maya master healer in Belize”. Don Elijo taught the abdominal massage to Dr Arvigo, who carried it into the modern world as a complete package of healing.  She brought to it more than 30 years of training and experience in massage, naprapathy, herbology, and spiritual healing, creating a holistic approach to healing that addresses a host of physical, emotional and spiritual illnesses.

A little known benefit of Maya-abdominal massage is its ability to enhance fertility and correct a prolapsed or tipped uterus.  Even if you are not trying to conceive or have a fertility issue, you quite possibly could be among the large percentage of women who have a misaligned uterus. This misalignment can be caused by falls, car accidents, overstretching during pregnancy resulting in weakened ligaments, running on concrete, chronic constipation, high impact activities or wearing heels.

Mayan massage is not just for fertility. It is good for women who have had hysterectomies, men and children. For men, the massage ensures full blood supply to the prostate, preventing swelling and inflammation.  It can help also to relieve premature ejaculation and the need to urinate frequently.

Mayan massage also encourages self-care, which is a simple abdominal massage one performs at home to keep the muscles and ligaments in their new, healthy position. After years of being out of correct alignment, muscles will naturally move back into their incorrect positions if not maintained. When you come for your first Mayan abdominal massage, you will be taught a series of stokes to do on your abdomen to do at home on a regular basis.

What is Holistic Pelvic Care?

Holistic Pelvic Care™ (HPC) is an incredible treatment approach pioneered by Tami Kent, MSPT. I completed intensive training to in 2015 so that I can offer this invaluable work to you. For some women, this is truly the missing piece in holistic women's health care and has incredible healing potential in multiple areas of your life.

HPC works to physically and energetically realign the muscles and fascia that support the pelvis. The technique involves gentle intra-vaginal massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, breath work and visualization to create balance and vibrant flow of energy throughout your body. The restored balance leads to improved sensation, better circulation, and greater strength in core muscles allowing for greater urine retention, enhanced pelvic vitality and fertility support. HPC can be extremely useful following pregnancy and childbirth to restore core balance and energy. It is also very appropriate for women who have undergone trauma to the pelvic area, either due to abuse, abortion or an accident.

I will listen and work respectfully and attentively to assure your comfort and understanding of your body and any sensations or emotions you may experience during these sessions. HPC is appropriate for women in all stages of life. Restored vitality and balance in the pelvic bowl facilitates greater joy and creativity in your life. It can deepen your relationship with yourself, the divine feminine and all relationships in your life. It can also significantly improve many physical ailments (scroll down to see list below).
