Mayan Abdominal Massage
Mayan Abdominal Massage
As women we often hold pain, trauma and suppressed feelings in the womb space. The physical movement of the Mayan abdominal massage helps move the energies out. This ancient practice is amazing as it brings in these sacred modalities that are lost in this western medicine - modern world. They are potent teachings that our ancestors want us tap into. The release and benefits are often felt many days (even weeks after the session)
Mayan massage is a form of abdominal massage that is gentle, yet very effective. It is often used for women with digestive and reproductive issues involving a non-invasive, external abdominal belly massage with an energetic aspect to massage as well. The techniques help to align the organs with the abdominal area, releasing pressure, and strengthening the areas. This in turn stimulates and supports circulation and blood flow within the abdominal area and pelvic bowl, supporting the body for optimal function of digestive and reproductive health and wellness.
Women often come to see Kim when they are trying to conceive, when experiencing fertility issues, through pregnancy and the postpartum period; or when experiencing gynecological concerns such as PCOS, endometriosis or when undergoing IVF.
Benefits of Mayan Abdominal Massage:
Hormonal Balance: The massage is thought to release feel good hormones, including oxytocin. This promotes hormonal balance by clearing pathways for feedback between the reproductive organs and the endocrine system.
Scar Tissue: Mayan abdominal massage helps to break up scar tissue and adhesions from caesareans, pelvic issues, infections and abdominal surgery. The removal of adhesions is really effective in providing a non-intrusive therapy for blocked fallopian tubes as well as with endometriosis, and uterine health as it decreases inflammation.
Removes Stagnation: This specific massage helps remove stagnant blood and tissues, clearing congestion. In endometriosis the massage rids the body of the old blood, thereby improving health of the womb.
Reduces Pain: Massage reduces pain through the release of endorphins. Long-term pain is also helped by the reduction of scar tissue and removal of old blood. These are both key factors that prevent proper blood flow and circulation.
Release of Trauma: As a female there are times in our life that we have most likely experienced trauma. Whether this is a sexual trauma, shaming, guilt, or a collective belief that as a female we are inferior for bleeding monthly. (And many of us have stories of this shame from accidents or lack of communication of accurate information from a parent or guardian). Mayan abdominal massage can help open up the lower energy centers in the body to help this energy move through us in a healthy productive safe space.
Heightened Pleasure: Finally, when balance is achieved in the body, including the sex organs and abdominal area, it is able to perform optimally. The nerve pathways are properly functioning as well as hormones and this will enhance the sexual experience. Who wants this added benefit?!?
