FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What does the treatment include?
The one hour treatment includes:
-The Maya Abdominal Therapy: which consists of a gentle assessment of the uterine findings (where the uterus is located) as well as a gentle assessment of the digestive and elimination organs. The assessment is followed by a simple four step massage which you will learn and be able to perform at home to continue your healing.
-Foot reflexology: which is a gentle stimulation of the reflex areas that mirror an image of the human body on the bottom of the feet.
-Neck balancing sequence: which is a series of relaxation points and holds to release tension in the neck muscles and the back of the head (the sub occipital ridge, which is the birthplace of many headaches).
-A back massage with medium to firm pressure to work out tension and stress with a gentle sacrum stretch, which is beneficial for those with tailbone traumas or who sit frequently in their personal or professional lives.
How long is the treatment and what is the cost of a treatment?
The initial treatment is an hour and a half, which includes a half hour to go over the client intake form (which can be downloaded

The follow up treatments are one hour and they are $75.

Is there a time when the treatment is contraindicated?
Yes, this treatment is not recommended:
-During menses
-When an IUD (intrauterine device) is present
-Immediately after abdominal surgery
-When an active infection or cancer is present in the abdomen/pelvic region
Is there something I can do at home to prolong the treatment's results?
Yes, on the second treatment, you will be shown how to do the Maya therapy on your abdomen so you have the option to maintain your own progress in between sessions. You may also be given recommendations for nutrition, exercise, steams, supplements or tinctures and castor oil packs.
What do I wear during a treatment?
It is recommended to wear loose clothing that can come into contact with massage oil, since you have the option of having your pants remain on throughout the treatment.
Am I able to have the treatment if I am doing other healing methods for my health concern?
Yes, this treatment is non-invasive and works wonderfully in conjunction with other treatments.
Is there anything I can do to prepare for the treatment?
For your comfort, it is recommended to refrain from eating 2 hours before the session so your abdomen is not full and you can receive a gentle and profound treatment.
