Herbal Immunity Building Bath

This is a celebration for the newborn baby as the first baby bath with the family. This sacred session begins with the gathering & bringing together of local desert wildflowers & herbs for delicately building immunity for newborn baby after birth. This is an ancient tradition practiced all over the world as a gentle way to introduce the outside world to the new baby usually as the first bath at around 1 week old. This is a beautiful photoshoot after the birth to celebrate the new addition to the family. Intimate gathering of building love bonds.
Postpartum Detox Cleanse
Initial/$150
Sequential/$100
We extract toxic blood through a hijama wet cupping session around & over the top of the naval to help with returning the abdomen & uterus back to where is was before pregnancy & birth. This detox also follows a diet cleanse & a 3 week full body treatment system for even more optimal results. This will totally reset the body.
Prenatal Massage
1 hour 11 minutes / $111
2 hours 22 minutes / $222
Pregnancy massage is just as important for the mama as it is for the baby. Through each trimester there is a special massage that combines relaxation, deep tissue and grounding while we also release fears, stress, swelling, aches, pains, anxiety & depression. In the 1st trimester, we work on relaxing the body and loosening muscles related to stress and release any issues like lower back pain. In the 2nd trimester, we focus on the upper and lower body region with hips and legs & prepare mama for connecting with baby & releasing any fears related to birth. In the 3rd trimester, we use more flowing movements to move problematic fluid and focus on swelling and the lower body to loosen tight muscles while offering affirmations to prepare for birth to come.
Postpartum Massage
1 hour 11 minutes / $111
2 hours 22 minutes / $222
When the baby is here, rest and restoration massages are necessary after exhaustion from labor and birth. Mama-baby massage sessions assist with those precious first weeks of special bonding that are necessary. If there is any traumas from birth or struggles in postpartum, we can explore how to support your continued healing journey. This session can also be just for mama to completely relax for a moment alone. Completely customizable & recommended to continue monthly for restoration, recovery & restfulness.
Bone-Closing Ceremony
2-3 hr / 222
The bone closing ceremony is a beautiful and powerful tradition that honors the postpartum journey of birthing peoples. The ceremony begins with soaking the feet in warm water and herbs, creating a space for relaxation and grounding while having a heart-to-heart conversation where to process their birth experience and the challenges and joys of parenthood. Tea is prepared for Vaginal steaming as a way to cleanse and heal the body with specific herbs for each person. The ceremony concludes with a massage and the closing of the bones with rebozos, which symbolizes the physical and emotional closure of the birthing process. This ceremony is a beautiful way to honor and support the postpartum individual in their journey of healing and transformation.
