Abdominal Therapy, also referred to as Maya Abdominal Massage, is a healing modality globalized through the teaching lineage of Rosita Arvigo. Rosita learned techniques from apprenticing with Mayan healer Don Elijio Panti & midwife Miss Hortense Robinson.

This modality is an external, non-invasive, bodywork therapy that helps align abdominal organs and increase nerve, lymph, energy, and blood flow. A typical session is 1/3 abdominal work, and 2/3 posterior work (to reduce tension & restriction in the back & lower spine). Guidance and resources for self massage are given during your first session, so you can continue this work at home between sessions.

By improving physical positioning and systemic function, this therapy may improve fertility (for both partners!)

Abdominal Therapy may also be a useful tool to prepare for and support IVF & IUI treatments, as it can optimize uterus positioning and vitality.

Abdominal Massage Therapy can be healing for any body, regardless of your biology, gender identification, or life story. We all hold so much, energetically and physically, in our core. This modality can be truly transformational for both physical issues and feeling at home in your body. Please reach out if you are wondering if/how abdominal therapy can serve you.
