"My twins were born naturally and without intervention after a four hour labour. They were both head down, perfectly positioned and were born seven minutes apart. They were a good size too, over 15lbs together. It really healed the trauma of my previous births. I'm certain I had such an easy time because of Maya massage, both the treatments you gave me and the self care routine you taught me to do myself". K, mother of twins

The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal TherapyTM

Maya Abdominal Therapy is centred around the ancient Mayan techniques that reposition organs that have dropped and restricted the flow of blood, lymph, nerve and chi energy. As with any other natural healing, Maya Abdominal Therapy seeks to restore the body to its natural balance.

Maya Abdominal Therapy for Pregnancy

Many of the problems that we take for granted and accept as a normal part of being pregnant can be prevented. You don't need to put up with spd, tired aching legs, varicose veins or swollen ankles, nor do you have to cope with sickness, headaches, or fluid retention. Maya Abdominal Therapy helps to relieve these and many other complaints.

Treating yourself to regular Maya Abdominal Therapy is relaxing and enjoyable for both you and the baby. It's a great way to encourage your baby into the optimum position ready for birth, leading to a shorter labour and easier birth for you both.
