The Arvigo techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy are founded on an ancient Maya technique of Abdominal Massage. This technique is performed externally by gently guiding and supporting organs back into their optimal position, allowing for improved functioning for optimal health and wellness. Arvigo Therapy is best known for addressing misalignment or congestion in the reproductive organs of both men and women, as well as many common digestive disorders. The techniques effectively alleviate tissue congestion and organ constriction to improve the vital flows of energy, blood, lymph and nerves in the abdomen. It addresses and can release emotional and energetic tension from the abdomen. This assists to prevent the progression of chronic disease symptomology while improving the body's ability to SELF REPAIR AND BALANCE. The following are the most common symptoms and conditions that Arvigo Therapy may help address: FOR EVERYONE (infancy to elderly) • Digestive disorders (Crohn's, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease, Gastritis, Constipation, Indigestion, etc.) • Muscular Tension • Urinary System (incontinence, frequent urinary infections, etc.) • Fertility Enhancement • Post Surgical (scar tissue, recovery, etc.) FOR WOMEN: • Menstrual Disorders (painful/irregular periods) • Pre-Conception through Postpartum • Fertility Enhancement • C-section/hysterectomy surgery recovery • Menopause • Pelvic Organ Congestion (endometriosis, cysts, fibroids) • Polycystic ovarian syndrome • Chronic bladder/yeast infections • Pelvic organ prolapse SPECIFICS FOR FERTILITY ENHANCEMENT: The best time to book the Maya abdominal massage using the Arvigo techniques for fertility enhancement (and all women still menstruating) is ideally between the end of menses and just before ovulation or the possibility of pregnancy.
