The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy ™ are inspired by the ancient Central American healing traditions of the Maya. Developed by Dr. Rosita Arvigo, this modality grew out of her apprenticeship with acclaimed Maya healer - Don Elijio Panti. The techniques are unique today in the bridge they create between traditional knowledge and modern understanding.
The techniques include abdominal and sacral massage, castor oil applications, vaginal steaming, herbal preparations, use of the faja (traditional belly band), prayer and more. A strong emphasis is placed on optimal reproductive anatomy, and the uterus is frequently repositioned via gentle external palpation.
Invaluable to women, the techniques also benefit men through restoring balance to the core of the body.
All clients are taught Self-Care Massage, as well as any other techniques pertinent to their needs.
Moon Yoga is proud to be associated with the very first ATMAT™ Self-Care Course to be held in Auckland, scheduled for early August 2012. Please email for more details.
