From teenage menstrual irregularities and pain to women having difficulty conceiving to discomforts of menopause and beyond, the balanced health I have seen those clients who engage this work achieve has been most astounding.

Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage
These therapies address position and health of the abdominal organs. The technique is best known for the correction of the prolapsed, fallen, or tilted uterus and for the prevention and treatment of women's ailments, benign prostate enlargement in men, and for relief of many common digestive disorders.
Benefits for Women
Maya Abdominal Massage is especially useful for
- difficulty becoming pregnant
- difficult periods (including excessive bleeding, pain, and irregular cycles)
- post-surgical adhesions and pain
- digestive problems, including reflux in all ages and IBS
- fibroids, endometriosis, PCOS and other estrogen dominance issues
- discomforts of pregnancy and menopause
Normally the uterus leans slightly over the bladder in the center of the pelvis, about one and a half inches above the pubic bone. It is held in this position by muscles, the vaginal wall and ligaments that attach it to the back, front, and sides of the pelvis. Uterine ligaments are made to stretch to accommodate a growing fetus inside and to move freely when the bladder or bowel is full. The ligaments and muscles can weaken and loosen, causing the uterus to fall downward, forward, backward or to either side.
A uterus in any of these positions is called tilted or prolapsed. Modern medicine has little or nothing to offer women with this problem. Options may include using the birth control pill, muscle relaxants, or surgery and women are generally told, "your uterus is tipped, but that is normal and don't worry about it." Yet women have a laundry list of physical and emotional symptoms that can be addressed and prevented with these simple, noninvasive massage techniques. When reproductive organs shift, they can constrict normal flow of blood and lymph, and disrupt nerve connections. Just a few extra ounces sitting on blood and lymph vessels can cause havoc throughout the different systems in the body. By shifting the uterus back into place, homeostasis, or the natural balance of the body, is restored in the pelvic area and the surrounding organs. Toxins are flushed and nutrients that help to tone tissue and balance hormones are restored to normal order. This is essential for healthy pregnancy, labor, and delivery.
Old adhesions and scar tissue from surgical treatments to the pelvic and abdominal area, including fibroid tumors, endometriosis, and cesarean delivery are diminished when addressed by uterine massage. In addition, digestion, urinary and bladder problems can be helped.

Benefits for Men
Men benefit greatly from Maya Abdominal Massage techniques as well. By ensuring a full blood supply to the prostate, the abdominal massage helps to prevent swelling and inflammation. Men report that they can feel a distinct difference in blood flow after a treatment. Not only does the massage relieve prostate swelling, but it helps alleviate varicose veins, premature ejaculation, some impotency problems and the need to urinate frequently.
Digestive and Emotional Benefits for Men and Women
Individuals with digestive disorders benefit greatly from Maya Abdominal Massage. Many common disorders such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Indigestion, Constipation, and heartburn are treated with antacids, muscle relaxants, and a variety of other medications. These treatments address symptoms, not the causes. In the techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage, the upper abdomen is given a deep, thorough massage to loosen the tight muscles around the stomach and the arteries that feed the digestive and eliminative organs with their vital blood supply. The diaphragm is gently massaged allowing relaxation of tight musculature.
"Michelle has helped me more than any doctor or alternative therapist I've seen in the past 5 years of searching. I was suffering from: chronic (vaginal) infections, painful intercourse and irregular cycles. Those issues are all gone now and have stayed gone! "
"I went to Michelle because I had a painful menstrual cycle and had not been able to get relief from other health practitioners. What I discovered is that she is not only a gifted massage therapist -- she is a true intuitive healer. She offered me a new perspective about my body that dramatically improved not only my periods but also has positively affected my overall health. My regular sessions with her are one of best things I've ever done for myself. I go with gratitude. "
"I started seeing Michelle a year after my c-section with twins. I was having a shocking pain left inguinal area. After 3 visits, the shocking pain is no more."
" I have seen dramatic results from her abdominal treatments helping me to recover post-hysterectomy. I would recommend her to anyone with female issues or digestive issues."
"I broke my tailbone during the birth of my first child and I credit Michelle with saving me from that experience with my second birth. Each appt after the initial one proved to be equally, if not more beneficial. She is worth every penny."
