What is Pelvic Steaming?
Pelvic steaming, otherwise known as vaginal or yoni steaming, is a universal practice without one clear place of origin. It is a healing modality that women everywhere developed for the purpose of postpartum care and treating gynecological issues.
Sitting over hot water that has been infused with fresh or dried herbs, the vagina and lower and upper reproductive system is steamed. As the water breaks open the cellular walls of the plants, their therapeutic properties are released into the steam and travel up to this highly vascular region of the body. The actions of steam have a powerful effect and unlike water or surgery are able to penetrate this region on a cellular level. According to thousands of case studies, pelvic steaming appears to improve symptoms in over 90% of all gynecological problems and shows tremendous potential as an alternative to invasive medical procedures. There's clear reason why this ancient custom has been passed down through female generations for thousands of years. There's nothing that compares to it.
From the beginning of menstruation to post-partum care to menopause, pelvic steaming helps to keep the reproductive organs healthy and pain free. Being a woman doesn't mean you have to suffer!
