Womb Care

Womb care is beneficial to women at any stage of life, and is particularly therapeutic during life transitions such as pregnancy and menopause. Our womb and pelvic bowl is the root space of creation and creativity. As women, we often harbor pain, shame, guilt and grief in this space. Womb care addresses physical concerns as well as emotions and rhythms that affect our being. Womb care is helpful for supporting the changing pregnant body and encouraging optimal fetal positioning. As a trained healer and midwife, I cater my care to the individual and approach treatment compassionately.  I facilitate and hold space for body, mind and spiritual healing. I integrate Arvigo® Techniques for Maya Abdominal Therapy and Holistic Pelvic Care™ into sessions.
