"Tehuantepecer" - Sealing ceremony
This is a healing postpartum care called "sealing ceremony" and inherited from the Mayans.
In this ritual the new mother is massaged with a rebozo (a long straight Mexican or Guatemalan scarf traditionally worn by women), and wrapped in a cosy cocoon, made of five scarves or rebozos, placed according to five energetic points..
You can invite one of your friends or relatives to attend the ceremony as a witness. The process consists in a wrapping method that facilitates shrinkage of the uterus and guides the bones and muscles back to their original positioning.
It helps the new parent to call their spirit back and reintegrate their pre-birth body. It helps the person to close a chapter in their life and open a new one. It is a transition ritual.
This is a real moment of relaxation and introspection. This is a precious and sacred treatment when you meet yourself again.
Included: Bath, sauna or steaming with herbs, womb/belly and body massage with oil, cacao ceremony.
Length: 3 hours.
"Puelche" - Chilean Postpartum body massage
60mn-60€
This postpartum massage facilitates the secretion of oxytocin, which not only helps feeling relaxed but also promotes the prolactin release, for a good milk flow.
To kick off the session, we start with a foot bath with a special herbal blend, salt and oil. This is for grounding.
After the massage, feelings of security, balance and power predominate.

"Khamsin" - Belly painting
Belly painting is part of an old tradition that has spread through Arabic, Indian and Pakistani cultures. It started with the use of the plant "henna" in Egypt, plant that has travelled all the way to India. Mehndi is the art of applying henna to the body (hands and feet but also back and belly).
Nowadays belly painting has taken other forms: the henna is still in use but colourful designs are also welcome. Traditional arabic symbols or hindu designs, mandalas, western figurative paintings, there is no limits to the human imagination.
The belly painting can be part of a ceremony (blessing). This is a rite of passage when the woman/person becomes a mother/parent. Their belly, their blossoming mother/parenthood, their curves are honoured and glorified. The person can set their intentions for the rest of the pregnancy and the imminent birth, they can share wishes for their baby.
The Ancients used to think that the painting will protect the pregnant person and the baby. In any case this is an absolute relaxing time for the pregnant person and when photos are taken, a beautiful and meaningful souvenir of the pregnancy and the gorgeous belly.

"Buran" - Gua Sha scraping treatment
Gua Sha is an alternative medicine used in East Asia. A tool (a coin, a spoon or a special comb) is used to scrape the skin and activate the blood circulation, untangle the knots, rebalance the energies...
This therapy has been practised for centuries to treat different symptoms: fatigue, insomnia, cold, migraine and more.
Etymologically, "Gua" refers to the method of scraping, rubbing. "Sha" refers to the petechiae, the rupture of small vessels under the skin. This accumulation of blood lets us visualise the "clogged" area. By massaging this area with the tool, we drain it.
Benefits of gua sha are numerous. The technique:
- Increases micro-circulation
- Reduces inflammation
- Increases immunity
- Maintains and strengthens the constitution
- Improves sleep
This treatment will please new mothers and others. It is not recommended for people who:
- have medical conditions affecting the skin or veins
- bleed easily
- take medication to thin their blood
- have deep vein thrombosis
- have a tumor
- have an implant, such as a pacemaker or internal defibrillator
30mn-60€
"Pampero" - Yoni Steaming
In Hinduism "yoni" symbolises the Goddess Shakti, the Great Divine Mother. In Sanskrit it means "source", "fountain", "fire pit of incubation", "womb", "vagina".
The treatment has existed for centuries in different parts of the world, for spiritual cleansing or hormonal balancing.
Many vagina owners use womb steam nowadays to either reconnect with their feminine energy, alleviate symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, endometriosis or menopause.
Wombs are clever and resilient. Here, I suggest this treatment to enhance and accelerate the natural postpartum healing process. Steam and plants will bring warmth, relaxation and the properties of each plant involved in the tailored blend. Lavender, for example, is antiseptic and anti-inflammatory. Calendula is analgesic, vulnerary, circulatory and much more. Some plants cleanse, others hydrate... All come together, balanced.
It is a spa, for your bottom and your soul.
