"The uterus is the woman's center. If her uterus is not in proper position and good health, nothing in her life will be right. She will be as out of balance as her uterus."
-Don Elijio Panti, Maya shaman of Belize and teacher to Dr. Rosita Arvigo

Maya Abdominal Massage

Maya Abdominal Massage is a non-invasive, external massage technique. It guides internal abdominal organs into their proper position for optimum health and well-being. Maya massage improves organ function by releasing physical and emotional congestion from the abdomen. This massage is effective for both men and women.

The technique applies anatomy, physiology, herbology and naprapathy (study of the ligaments, joints and muscles) with Ancient Maya healing techniques to address common female and male complaints. The technique works by relieving congestion and blockages to improve the flow of chi and fluids of the circulatory, lymphatic and nervous systems to prevent the progression of chronic disease symptomology.

Dr. Rosita Arvigo, DN, developed these techniques, after apprenticing with Don Elijio Panti, the last of the Traditional Maya Shaman in Central America, where she has lived for over 30 years. The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage™ combine modern science with traditional healing and wisdom to produce a holistic path to physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.

Your first session is 2 hours, with follow up sessions lasting 1 hour.
