Steaming FAQ

Peri-Steam Hydrotherapy aka vaginal steaming is the therapeutic use of steaming to heal, renew, and refresh. It is an ancient technique for self-care and healing that can be traced to cultures all around the world. It is a non-invasive practice that brings circulation and loving attention to organs associated with the reproductive, sensual, and sexual systems.

After a thorough intake that assesses eligibility and eliminates contraindications, a protocol is developed. It includes proper timing for steaming, correct herbal blend, duration for each steam, and whether or not a cloak should be used.

No, Peristeam Hydrotherapy is a therapeutic technique. The proper herbs need to be used and essential oils are too strong for the genitals. If the herbs are used incorrectly, unwanted changes in the cycle can occur.

“My body will never be the same!” “Why am I still spotting?” “It still hurts down there!” “What if I’m too tender to have sex?” “My tissue feels so dry!” “Why am I still swollen?”

Unfortunately, these statements are all too common. We are lead to believe that nothing will ever be the same. We are told that pain and tenderness are all part of the process. And we are actually encouraged to accept our new normal and move on.

But there is a solution - Postpartum Peristeam Hydrotherapy. It is the therapeutic use of steaming to heal, renew, and refresh the postpartum body. It is an ancient therapy that can be traced to cultures all around the world. These cultures recognized the unique needs of the postpartum body and honored and addressed them through the steaming.

The benefits can include:

-Tightening the perineal skin
-Lifting the uterus and organs to prepregnancy location
-Preventing bladder prolapse and urinary incontinence
-Stimulating the release of oxytocin
-Enabling the uterus to fully cleanse
-Encouraging the normal amenorrheal state until 9-12 months
 And OVERALL
-RETURNING THE BODY TO A HEALTHY PREPREGNANT  STATE

Postpartum Peristeam Hydrotherapy is included in the Premium and Deluxe Packages or can be chosen a la carte.

“After a few steams, I began to feel like myself again. So many people told me I would never be the same so I was shocked to see me becoming me. After only a few weeks I felt renewed and was amazed at how well my body had recovered.”

“I have terrible cramps every month!” “I see small clots the whole time I’m bleeding.” “I have 3 days of brown spotting!” “I always have three days of light pink blood that never gets darker.” “Sometimes I don’t have a period for 3 months!” “My cycles are only 22 days long.” “I have to stay in bed the first day.”

This is the story for many of us. We are told it’s normal to suffer. We are encouraged to take drugs to stop ovulating or bleeding all together (and causing other problems in the process). We are expected to keep going and stop complaining.

But there is a solution - Peristeam Hydrotherapy, the therapeutic use of steaming to heal, renew, and refresh the body. It is an ancient therapy that can be traced to cultures all around the world.

“I never had a pain free period in my life until I started steaming. I followed the protocol for three months even though everything had changed by the beginning of the second month. Now I follow the maintenance protocol. I never thought I would be happy about my period.”
GH, 26 years old 

“I’ve been trying for months and still haven’t gotten pregnant!” “I’m not even sure that I’m ovulating.” “My cycles are always 24 days long.” My doctor says time is wasting but I want to try other things before I try fertility treatments with a specialist.”

Unfortunately, I hear this all too often. Long term use of contraceptives and waiting longer to get pregnant are blamed as the culprit but in reality an unhealthy uterus and period cycle perpetuate the continuance of infertility.

“I’m so itchy!” Why does it burn?” “Every month after my period I feel full and tender.” “My doctor has treated me for so many infections that I’m afraid to not take the medicine.” What if these infections never go away?”

“My skin down there feels so dry.” I always hurt for the day after any sexual activity.” “It feels tight.” “It feels loose.” “My libido has decreased and I don’t like that.” “I want to enjoy sex whether I self pleasure or pleasure with a partner.”

Our choices about whether or not to have sex shouldn’t be based on pain. We shouldn’t have to suffer through or be uncomfortable for days after. Achiness, tenderness, and itchiness should not be words associated with our nether regions.
