While celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow may have popularized vaginal steaming, this self-care practice is hundreds of years old and is rooted in ancient shamanic practices.
As a practitioner of the Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy, Amy has been providing and partaking in vaginal steam ceremonies off and on for nearly a decade.
In this episode of #redtentsisterstv, we discuss:
- How to have a vaginal steam bath (no, you don't need to go to a spa!)
- What herbs to use, including how to make use of what you already have in the kitchen
- The benefits of a vaginal steam (both physiological and spiritual)
- What makes it different from douching (which is something we don't recommend)
- Options for stools and DIY alternatives
- The history of vaginal steaming
