Steam baths for the intimate area (Mayan wisdom to reduce menstrual pain)

Bathing the intimate area, a home remedy of Mayan origin, has helped improve the sexual health of many women with problems such as menstrual cramps, endometriosis, postpartum complications, and even infertility.

This Mayan heritage uses the steam given off by certain medicinal plants, favoring the health of both the female intimate apparatus and the menstruation process. Helps in symptoms such as:

  • Significantly reduce pain, inflammation and fatigue associated with menstruation,
  • reduce menstrual blood volume and heavy periods with excess clots,
  • regulate irregular menstrual periods,
  • speed recovery time and muscle tone and reproductive system function after childbirth or abortion,
  • decreases symptoms of fibroids, ovarian cysts, uterine weakness, uterine prolapse and endometriosis,
  • help the recovery of vaginal tissue in case of tear at birth, episiotomy or with the recovery of the cesarean section scar,
  • facilitate the recovery and prevention of hemorrhoids,
  • accelerate the recovery of the pelvic floor or postpartum perineum,
  • help fight chronic vaginal infections and eliminate bad vaginal odor,
  • decrease the symptoms of menopause,

  • regulate vaginal discharge,
  • detoxify the uterus and remove toxins from the body,

    • The process of the intimate bath is as if a vaporization was applied that helps to clear the airways, except that the vapor from the herbs reaches the vulva, literally vaporizing the entire intimate area, so that the woman receives them seated with legs open and container under it. Since the tissue in the area is porous and absorbent, the steam helps to soften it and open it up to the bloodstream and uterus. This herbal steam allows you to accelerate circulation, thinning mucus, cleaning the reproductive system, eliminating excess membranes and adhesions.
