I wish everyone's answer was "this morning!" But if your periods are painful, you want to be pregnant and you're not, your body didn't birth your baby as you thought it should, or you pee a little when you sneeze, gratitude is probably not your first feeling. In fact, when you experience your womb or your pelvic bowl as a source of discomfort or dysfunction, it's more likely that you feel frustrated, discouraged or even betrayed by your body.
These issues and many others can be alleviated with the simple hands-on massage techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy. How would you like to love your belly back to health? You can feel better and begin to come back into right relationship with your creative center, whatever your age or stage of life.

I've been providing compassionate, body-centered care to families in Boulder County since 1993. As a homebirth midwife, the most fulfilling aspect of my job was my relationships - the intimate connections I made with my clients as guide and witness to their birthing journeys. Though I have retired from catching babies, I continue the deep connections and guidance for women of all ages and stages in life.
Maya Abdominal Therapy
Report
The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy originate in ancient Maya practices of abdominal massage. Gentle external massage helps guide organs back into proper position and enhances the flow of blood, lymph, nerve impulses and chi in the abdomen. Increased flow restores balance and allows the body to heal.
Massage Therapy

Massage is not a luxury; it is essential health maintenance, just like exercise. While exercise (including most styles of yoga) is the yang, integrative therapeutic massage is the yin of self-care. Receiving nurturing touch resets and restores the body like nothing else.
Dropping out of focused mind, enjoying connection in the physical body without effort, releasing tension and increasing flow all serve to enhance well-being and reduce dis-ease on all levels.To that end, I have cultivated a deep, slow and soothing touch, informed by training in Shiatsu, myofascial and craniosacral therapies.

It takes about 30 minutes. Initial visits are scheduled for 2 hours. We begin with an extensive intake, followed by physical assessment, treatment and education. Finally, we develop plans for self-care between sessions and an expectation of how many professional sessions you will need. You don't need to wear any particular type of clothing, I will ask you to remove all but your underwear and drape your legs and chest while I work on your abdomen.

These techniques are a brilliant combination of traditional wisdom and modern science. They originate in ancient Maya practices of abdominal massage. Dr. Rosita Arvigo studied for 40 years with traditional healers in Central America and combined what she learned with extensive anatomical study and her Naprapathic practices.
