I have suffered a great deal with intense menstrual cramps, endometriosis for most of my life, but my periods have been a lot more manageable. I feel hopeful and confident now. So grateful!’ SD
‘I’ve been steaming weekly for three weeks and it has helped me so much with my swelling, it’s gone down pretty much all the way. Currently my bleeding feels so nourishing with no pain or discomfort at all.’ SLB
‘I spent most of my adult life on hormonal contraceptives because of excruciating cramps and irregular periods as a child. I was terrified to stop taking the pill, but I had this feeling inside of me that knew it was time to stop. When I stopped the pain did came back, but I was prepared and started steaming regularly and since then I have pain-free and regular periods. I can’t recommend this enough! Nicky has been a wonderful support with this healing practice’ JS
‘I had two months of intermittent periods, with one month of continues light bleeding. I was uncomfortable, bloated and in pain, my womb felt exhausted! Nicky prepared a custom Yoni Steam blend for me and I found much relief in steaming. It also feels like a true honouring of my Yoni and her path. I felt that the process reconnected me to her intimately. Much gratitude.’ JT
YONI STEAMING has become very popular and for good reason! It truly is a wholesome natural support to women who are suffering with difficult periods, coming off hormonal contraceptives and those preparing for conception. It is a superb self-care practice to those who seek to dedicate time to themselves.
I offer two options for steaming:
In Situ Steaming; this is a very accessible and comfortable way for you to experience steaming. Everything is set-up and ready for you. You will steam on a comfortable steaming chair with gentle music in a safe space, you just need to arrive. Book here.
Steam at Home; you can buy herbs from me, or at the following stockists. Inside each of the steaming packets there is a wonderful steaming guide to give you clear support to steam at home, it’s not difficult at all. Furthermore, I have beautiful steaming chairs available, have a look!
Custom Blends and Consultations; if you are experiencing anything more than mildly painful periods you need a consultation. If you want results it is vital that you use the correct herbs for your symptoms and get a steaming schedule. Book here. First learn with a practitioner, once you have the knowledge it will be your turn to transfer it to your daughters.
Yoni steaming can assist with many complaints, but there are a few instances that it is contraindicated to steam, such as with excessive bleeding, large cysts, vaginosis, discharge with odour or if you are actively trying to conceive. You need to be 100% sure when you should steam and use the correct herbs, feel free to book a consultation with me to know the best way forward for you.
Yoni steaming is also called vaginal steam or peri steam. It’s an age-old practice where a woman sits over a bowl of steaming herbs allowing the herbal steam to permeate the exterior of her vagina and in particular her perineum. It has been trusted by healers across the globe since time immemorial as an effective way to help women with menstrual complaints, such as heavy pain, irregular and delayed period, bladder/yeast infections, fibroids, endometriosis and other concerns related to the reproductive system such as hormones, fertility, menopause, sexual shame and guilt.
Yoni steaming is wonderful self care practice and the benefits extend beyond easing physical complaints, it also offers an opportunity to connect with the self, as it is VERY relaxing and nurturing. Some like to call it a womb detox, when in fact it also serves as a detox for the emotional body!
Can Yoni Steaming help with healing sexual shame and guilt? Absolutely yes! In its very essence it allows for connection with your Yoni which is a Sanskrit word meaning Sacred Space and can bring up stored emotions stuck in the Yoni which you can then process. So yes, it’s very useful in healing sexual shame and guilt, but YOU have to allow this process, not just expect it to heal you, the healing occurs when you yourself process the feelings of shame and guilt.
Lao Tzu says: ‘If you follow the manifestations until you find their origin you will be free from their sorrow.’
