What is this wonderful technique of massage? And why is it called Mayan Abdominal? Well, this Massage is founded on the ancient Mayan technique of abdominal massage. It is an external, non-invasive manipulation that repositions internal organs that have shifted, thereby restricting the flow of blood, lymph, nerve and chi.
For women, it specifically helps all kinds of symptoms such as: painful periods, heavy periods, tilted uterus, irritable bowel, constipation, fertility challenges, endometriosis, low back ache and many others.
Normal or Tilted?
Normally the uterus leans slightly over the bladder in the center of the pelvis, about one and a half inches above the pubic bone.
Uterine ligaments are made to stretch in order to accommodate a growing fetus inside and to move freely when the bladder or bowel are full. Due to a variety of reasons, the ligaments and muscles can weaken and loosen, causing the uterus to fall downward, forward, backward or to either side.
Often times women are told their uterus is “tilted” or “prolapsed” and that it is normal. Unfortunately this change in position causes many uncomfortable symptoms and most doctors do not have a way to shift the uterus back into place. This results in a list of drugs and pills to stop the symptoms.
What about the cause?
This is where the massage comes into play! By shifting your uterus into the correct spot - blood, lymph, nerve conduction and energy are able to freely flow back into the places they are suppose to be.
This massage is wonderful for almost everyone! As I said before, it is external and non-invasive. You lay on a regular massage table and enjoy the benefits of having your core worked.
