    Healers in Central America have been practicing these noninvasive, hands-on manipulation techniques for thousands of years. This therapeutic massage works to eliminate the primary cause of reproductive and digestive complaints in all genders by repositioning the reproductive organs and assisting the flow of fluids and energy to nourish and repair the organs and systems naturally. Herbal and dietary education, castor oil packs and vaginal steams are complementary elements of this healing modality.

     

    Types of conditions ATMAT can help with:

    • Dysmenorrhea
    • Short, long and irregular menstrual cycles
    • Uterine fibroids and cysts
    • Uterine prolapse
    • Incontinence
    • Postpartum (to ensure that organs go back to their proper place)
    • Colitis and Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
    • Acute or chronic indigestion
    • Diarrhea, constipation, and flatulence
    • Chronic weight conditions
    • PCOS

    Arvigo Prenatal Massage

    Om Laila Sanctuary 64 Henry St.

    The Arvigo prenatal massage specifically supports the needs of the pregnant body throughout gestation. It is a version of the "sobado", a special pregnancy massage traditional Mayan and Mexican midwives would perform at prenatal appointments. The blessings of this nurturing treatment are experienced both while receiving your massage and afterward. Not only does the Arvigo prenatal massage melt away tension and relieve aching muscles, it improves circulation and digestion, removes toxins from the body, alleviates nerve compression, enhances nutrient and oxygen delivery to your baby and aligns the uterus, encouraging an optimal fetal position and hence a more efficient labour!

    Note: this is not an External Cephalic Version. ATMAT positions the uterus, not the baby.

    A 2010 study concluded that pregnant people who received massage throughout pregnancy decreased their chances of having a premature baby, experienced significant less pain and had on average a 3 hour shorter labour.

    ATMAT pregnancy massage is also fantastic for individuals who are concerned with going beyond dates.

    Recipients will also learn a special self-care abdominal massage routine, which they can do at home to enhance and maintain the healing. For drawing the maximum benefits of this therapy, regular sessions are recommended.

    A warm and heartfelt thank you to the Maya people, whose wisdom brought forth these brilliant techniques.

     

    Treatment options:

    The session is 75 min and includes an Arvigo pregnancy massage, self-care routine, and handouts $135+HST

    Vaginal steam

    Om Laila Sanctuary 64 Henry st.

    A vaginal steam is a complimentary modality used in conjunction with abdominal massage. It aids in cleansing the uterine mucous membranes when there is an accumulation of debris, which would be indicated by painful periods or dark, thick blood at the onset or end of menstruation. It is also useful postpartum, post miscarriage, right before an IUI or IVF or as part of a healing protocol for fibroids, cysts or endometriosis. In most cases, if a steam is needed, it will be an extension of the client's abdominal massage treatment. A stand-alone vaginal steam session is commonly used by clients who are doing self-care massage at home and would like steam prior to a fertility treatment

    Treatment options:

    • This session is 30 mins and costs $50 + HST
    *I reserve a certain amount of sliding scale spaces each month to ensure that this important healing modality is accessible to people of all income levels. Contact me directly for details.
