sobadas
womb - abdominal massage
How do we tend to our centers? This soft, vast belly territory holds so much. House of creative Life force, the place we’ve all come into being. A place that holds tension, grief, memory. A place we may not be used to receiving tender, healing touch. It is an immense honor to tend to our centers.
This work is rooted in presence, deep listening, and reverence for the innate intelligence of our bodies that know how to come back into harmony.
Listening hands glide over the belly territory to guide the uterus into optimal position, encourage circulation of blood, lymph, life force, and nerves to abdominal organs, improve digestion, and much more..

“The uterus is a woman’s center. If it is out of balance, then she will be physically, emotionally and spiritually. out of balance.” - Don Elijio Panti, traditional Maya h’men of Belize
Sobadas - abdominal/womb massage is for everyone, at every stage of Life. Menstruation - pre-conception - pregnancy - postpartum - menopause.
When we tend to the center, we are innately moving stagnant energy, inviting what is no longer needed to be shed, and tending to the house of creation - fertility ; whether we’re looking to call in a baby or manifest a dream.

Holistic root-care begins with a warm cup of herbal tea or cacao. We make space for your story to unfold and explore the intention for the session; be it wanting to prepare the womb to invite a pregnancy, explore root causes of menstrual pains & irregularities, facilitate postpartum healing, or whatever reason on your journey that leads you to my care.
Ritual bodywork sessions interweave deep, yet gentle, Maya abdominal massage with various sobada techniques from traditional midwives across cultures, craniosacral therapy, warming modalities (ie. moxa), plant medicine, and rebozo techniques. All rituals unfold intuitively and adapt to each person depending on individual needs & constitutions.
I take time after each session to teach uterine/abdominal self-massage techniques and prepare custom herbal remedies upon request.
