Maya Abdominal Massage is a non-invasive, external massage technique. It guides internal abdominal organs into their proper position for optimum health and well-being. Maya massage improves organ function by releasing physical and emotional congestion from the abdomen. This massage is effective for both men and women.
The technique applies anatomy, physiology, herbology and naprapathy (study of the ligaments, joints, and muscles) with ancient Maya healing techniques to address common female and male complaints. The technique works by relieving congestion and blockages to improve the flow of chi and fluids of the circulatory, lymphatic, and nervous systems to prevent the progression of chronic disease symptoms.
History:
This massage is founded on the ancient Mayan technique of abdominal massage. This is an external, non-invasive manipulation that repositions internal organs that have shifted, thereby restricting the flow of blood, lymph, nerve and chi.
Normal or Tilted? 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 in order to accommodate a growing fetus inside and to move freely when the bladder or bowel are full.

Uterine ligaments are made to stretch in order to accommodate a growing fetus inside and to move freely when the bladder or bowel are full.
Due to a variety of reasons, the ligaments and muscles can weaken and loosen, causing the uterus to fall downward, forward, backward or to either side.
Oftentimes women are told their uterus is “tilted” or “prolapsed” and that it is normal. Unfortunately, this change in position causes many uncomfortable symptoms and most doctors do not have a way to shift the uterus back into place. This results in a list of drugs and pills to stop the symptoms.
What about the cause? This is where the massage comes into play! By shifting your uterus into the correct spot - blood, lymph, nerve conduction and energy are able to freely flow back into the places they are suppose to be.
This massage is wonderful for almost everyone!
