Fertility and Maya Abdominal Massage
Fertility depends on several biological processes working together in
harmony. Hormones must fluctuate throughout a woman’s cycle in correct
amounts. The lining of the uterus must be sufficiently healthy to nourish a
developing fetus. The uterus must be strong and receiving a plentiful
and healthy blood supply. Vaginal pH
must be just right so that the father’s sperm is not weakened or
immobilized by acidic fluids. Oxygen and carbon dioxide within the
system must be balanced. Emotionally and spiritually a woman must be
ready and willing to accept new life and the consequent changes in
lifestyle. The mother’s urinary, venous, and lymphatic systems must be
able to remove the additional waste material produced by the developing
fetus.
Maya Abdominal Massage encourages the
uterus to maintain oxygen, nutrients, hormones, lymphatic fluids and
venous drainage to fulfill her reproductive destiny!
Maya Abdominal Massage is particularly useful for women who are trying to conceive who have experienced any of the following:
*Amenerhea-Lack of regular menstrual flow.
*Anovulatory Cycles-Lack of regular ovulation.
*Thin Uterine Lining-May be caused by some medications, as well as hormonal fluctuations.
*Painful Intercourse-The less enjoyable the experience, the less likely you and your partner are to engage in the very act with the frequency you may desire/require!
Help for Women Who Experience Chronic Miscarriages
The process of conception is multi faceted, with
multiple opportunities for a breakdown in the body’s communication
between hormones, fertilization, implantation, development of the fetus
and delivery.
First, we must have a strong hormonal feedback system between the ovaries, uterus and hypothalamus. If the hormonal feedback loop is intermittent and cannot properly
prepare the uterine membrane for conception and implantation, or the blood supply to the membrane is so poor that proper nutrients
and hormones do not flow in sufficient amounts to support life, it is difficult to support the pregnancy to term.
Some women are told by their doctor's that the
miscarriage was due to “an incompetent cervix”. When the ligaments of the uterus are not strong enough to hold the uterus in her normal position, the additional weight of the placenta and fetus, will force pressure on the cervix too soon, resulting in a miscarriage. Regular Maya Abdominal Massage, Self-Care and the use of a Faja are very useful at coaxing the uterus into proper alignment.
Healing From Trauma
Rosita's teachings and the Maya techniques also address the impact of
emotional, physical, sexual abuses of any nature in both men and women.
Maya self-care techniques, Maya medicine, prayer and herbs gently work
to release emotional trauma and consequent armoring. While medications
and sedatives prescribed to trauma survivor’s assist in short-term care
of victims, they do not address or heal emotional trauma and armoring
held in the body.
Maya Abdominal Massage assists
in releasing this armoring in a contained, safe environment. Plant
spirit medicine and herbs assist in the process and in reframing the
event mindfully within the context of a person’s life. Issues that may
have come to consciousness in cognitive therapy often reach deeper
levels of resolution.
Additionally, ongoing
commitment to self-care practice of abdominal massage, or any other
practice, which helps bring the light of consciousness to that which is
held in the unconscious, transmutes trauma, and as Rosita has said,
"enables us to thrive rather than to simply survive."
Please be on time for your appointment. If you are late for your massage appointment we will use the remaining time allocated. If you must cancel your appointment, please give as much notice as possible. If less than 24 hours notice is given, you will be responsible for the full price of the session.
