Abhyanga for mother + baby
Abhyanga is an Ayurvedic warm herbal oil massage customized to your needs.
Benefits: Improves lymphatic flow and drainage; excellent for calming the nervous system; improves circulation + strength; lubricates internal organs and your body's largest organ - the skin; eliminates and detoxifies through penetrating the whole tissue system; balances Vata + Pitta, while enhances Kapha.
Baby Abhyanga programs predictability and rhythm (same process, time/place, and communication each time) to strengthen neural pathways for self-soothing and pleasure. I will perform the first treatment and teach you to integrate it into your routine with baby.

Postpartum Cocoon: Belly wrapping + womb massage
The art of wrapping a postpartum women's belly for physical support and to deepen post-birth recovery is a technique using a long strip of cloth wrapped around the abdomen from the hips to the ribcage. Women are traditionally wrapped as soon after birth as possible, ideally on day five, and then worn for 42 days or longer as needed.
Benefits: Provides postural support for the torso and organs as they return to the pre-pregnancy position; supports and assists abdominal wall healing and diastasis recti recovery; supports the body's natural spine and posture realignment post-birth; constant pressure on the torso and abdomen hastens healing by reducing water, fat, and air in the tissue and cells; stabilizes loose ligaments; helps to prevent and relieve lower back aches and strains; prevents slouching while feeding or holding your child
Before wrapping, I will perform a sacred womb massage sequence incorporating abhyanga, herbal oil, marma therapy, and belly paste.

We tend to the flames of Agni with food, herbs, lifestyle, breath, and certain yogic practices.
