Pregnancy is a sacred time of deep soul healing and transformation. As a woman begins to carry new life, she embarks upon a profound journey from Maiden to Mother. This journey, although often joyful, can certainly have its challenges and discomforts. Without the proper self-care and supports in place, these ailments have a way of taking center-stage. At Lotus Womb, we get to the root cause of these issues and work to resolve them. Pregnancy isn’t meant to be riddled with pain with discomfort. Just because it’s common, doesn’t mean it’s normal.

If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms during your pregnancy, we can help:

  • Constipation

  • Fatigue

  • Heartburn

  • Nausea

  • Uterine Cramping

  • Vaginal Yeast infections

  • Hemorrhoids

  • Round Ligament Pain

  • Baby’s birthing position

  • Edema (swelling)

  • Emotional blocks and fears

  • Insomnia

Julia has completed advanced training to utilize The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy® with pregnant clients.

Arvigo® Therapy benefits women during the child-bearing year by enhancing fertility and conception, supporting structural changes during pregnancy thereby alleviating common discomforts and enabling optimal birth position to ease labor, birth, and postpartum recovery.

At your initial session, you will be taught SELF- CARE techniques which adds to the therapeutic benefits of your session when you perform it at home. Pregnant moms report enhanced wellness benefits when they do their self-care regularly.

Arvigo® Therapy

  • supports the physiological and structural changes experienced by women during pregnancy. As the baby and uterus grow, additional strain is put on the uterine and pelvic ligaments and the pelvic floor muscles. With the regular massage, the uterus stays well-positioned and receives good blood supply to support its growth.

  • helps normalize pelvic alignment, allowing the uterus to be guided into optimal positioning.

Arvigo® Therapists around the world have repeatedly found that their clients experience significantly shorter and easier labors. Midwifery-based practices that have integrated Arvigo® Therapy into their care have reported improved birth outcomes as evidenced by more efficient contractions and shorter labors. Digestion and respiration during pregnancy are also improved.

It is advisable to begin working with your therapist early in your pregnancy to provide you and your baby with the maximum benefits.
