Mayan Abdominal Therapy
Mayan Abdominal Therapy, as taught by Rosita Arvigo through Abdominal Therapy Collective, is a gentle, external massage technique that focuses on the abdomen, pelvis, and lower back. It aims to realign the internal organs, enhance blood flow, and support overall well-being. This technique is rooted in ancient Mayan healing practices and is designed to address a variety of health issues, including digestive disorders, menstrual problems, fertility challenges, and emotional stress.
How It Works
Gentle Massage:
The therapist uses gentle, non-invasive massage strokes in the abdomen, sacrum, and low back to manipulate the positioning of the pelvis, uterus, and abdominal organs. The touch is firm yet gentle, ensuring comfort while effectively targeting the internal organs and tissues.
Realignment:
The massage techniques aim to reposition the internal organs, particularly the uterus in women, which may become displaced due to various factors such as injury, stress, or poor posture. Proper alignment is believed to improve circulation and organ function.
Enhancing Blood Flow:
By stimulating the abdominal region, the therapy promotes better blood flow to the organs. Improved circulation can aid in nutrient delivery, waste removal, and overall organ health.
Supporting Digestion:
The massage techniques help to relax the digestive muscles and stimulate peristalsis, the natural movement of the intestines. This can alleviate digestive issues such as bloating, constipation, and indigestion.
Promoting Emotional Well-being:
The abdomen is often considered the body’s emotional center. Gentle abdominal massage can help release stored emotional tension, promoting a sense of relaxation and well-being through manual stimulation of the vagus nerve.
Self-Care Techniques:
The initial treatment visit teaches individuals self-care techniques to continue the benefits of the therapy at home. These may include specific massage techniques, exercises, and lifestyle adjustments to support ongoing health and healing.
