Maya Abdominal Therapy for Fertility
The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal TherapyTM addresses the health of the reproductive and digestive systems, bringing physical and emotional balance to the organs of the abdomen. The treatment is effective for both men and women.
The treatment can be introduced at any stage of the fertility cycle, but as always, it is best to begin the treatments in the pre-conception stage giving the body the opportunity to come into balance from the very start.
The technique works by improving the flow of blood, nerve impulses, lymphatic fluid, venous supply and energy. If any of these flows are restricted, a number of different symptoms can develop including, for women; painful cramps, deterioration of the uterine lining, hormonal imbalance and fertility problems and for men; a decrease in sperm count, swelling of the prostate, varicose veins, premature ejaculation, some impotency problems and the need to urinate frequently.
The longer the stagnation of these important channels of flow lasts, the greater the possibility for more complicated symptoms to arise including ovarian cysts, endometriosis, fibroids. The close proximity of the uterus to other organs including the bladder and intestines can set off imbalances to the urinary and digestive systems. For example; a forward lying (anteverted) uterus can result in frequent urination, bladder infections; a side lying uterus can effect ovarian function; a low lying (prolapsed) uterus can lead to painful intercourse, varicose veins, bladder and bowel incontinence; a tipped back (retroverted) uterus can block movement in the colon. All of these symptoms are exasperated during menses (period) when the uterus becomes almost twice her weight.
A gentle, external technique is used to return the uterus to its proper position within the pelvic bowl as well as improving channels of flow to and from the prostate. The treatment begins the process of breaking down and clearing stagnation, congestion, tightness and toxicity creating a much healthier, happier environment for all the abdominal organs to live in. Most importantly it can help create a connection or restore a lost connection to a part of the body that is often locked, blocked and trapped in physical and emotional negativity. If this sounds like the relationship you have with your belly, then make a booking today and take advantage of this special offer to all Fertile Ground Health Group clients.
