FOLLOW YOUR GUT

If you suffer from any digestive or reproductive health issue it can often be an ongoing challenge to master complete relief from the symptoms that keep reappearing no matter what you do; follow the best diet, do regular exercise or undergo surgery. Abdominal Therapy has been a life changer for me personally and I am so happy to share this technique with clients who come to me with a laundry list of abdominal health issues including, IBS, infertility, painful periods.




HOW CAN ABDOMINAL THERAPY HELP ME?

Abdominal Therapy is a gentle yet powerful holistic therapy perfectly aligned with anyone truly looking to:
  • get to the bottom of ongoing abdominal health issues
  • feel back in control of their digestive and reproductive health
  • establish a healthy connection and respect for their belly and the belly organs
  • learn tools that can be applied anytime / any place that will maintain abdominal health and happiness



SO WHAT IS ABDOMINAL THERAPY?

In a nut shell, Abdominal Therapy is all about the health and happiness of your belly’s organs and creating an internal environment where they are able to thrive and carry out all the incredible jobs that they are designed to do for you. Each session, whether online or in clinic, or within workshops and retreats is focused around clearing the mental, physical and emotional clutter that gets trapped in the belly causing the organs of the belly to under perform. The techniques used in clinic specifically look at stimulating the circulation and boosting the vitality of your reproductive and digestive organs and is suitable for both men and women. These clinic based sessions combine my training and experience in the ancient healing technique of The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy® , a non invasive external abdominal massage along with other supportive modalities including Reiki, Meditation and Reflexology.

THE ARVIGO TECHNIQUES OF MAYA ABDOMINAL THERAPY®

The Arvigo techniques address the position and health of the pelvic and abdominal organs. The work is best known for the correction of the prolapsed, retroverted, fallen, or tilted uterus and for the prevention and treatment of benign prostate enlargement in men, and for relief of many common digestive disorders and symptoms. Based on over forty years of training and experience in massage, naprapathy, herbology, and spiritual healing, Dr. Rosita Arvigo (pictured opposite with Danielle) developed these techniques which now bear her name. This modality incorporates a holistic approach to health care which includes massage, as well as emotional support. Dr. Arvigo believes that with any natural healing technique, these areas must be simultaneously addressed to promote optimal health. Dr. Arvigo learned these techniques from her mentor, Don Elijio Panti, one of the last great Maya Shaman of Belize, Central America with whom she apprenticed for ten years.



ABOUT DANIELLE

“In late 2008, after experiencing years of painful periods, an ultrasound confirmed a very large cyst on my right ovary, a tipped uterus and further diagnosis suggested wide spread debilitating endometriosis. The doctor believed surgery was my only option. I begged to differ and said I would give myself 6 months to look at less invasive treatments. An appointment with a specialist was scheduled for 6 months down the track and instead I opted to have another ultrasound. Results showed two perfectly healthy ovaries, a uterus in the correct position as well as experiencing pain free periods and ovulation. A holistic approach was taken including Maya Abdominal Therapy giving the body a chance to heal itself with nourishing and nurturing care. The results speak for themselves!”

Approach to Healing

My overall approach to healing is about softening, allowing and encouraging. Within my clinic, my biggest focus is creating a non judgmental, non critical space and place for people to explore the hidden treasure that can be found when we reconnect with the deep wisdom held in the belly. Each session will help you access and switch on your body’s innate capacity for healing itself. The insights and information that are often gained when we allow the body to be still are not new but memory recall to the buried part of us that already knows exactly what to do. That part of you that will have already led you to click on the link to this site – inner guidance, intuition, little voice in your head however you want to describe it! Everything that has caused you to become unbalanced in the belly, disconnected from the belly’s organs has come from within. Therefore, everything you need to reconnect and become balanced once more is also going to come from within.
