✨ The womb is more than a physical organ:
🌿 Why a relationship with your womb space matters:
🌟 With Womb Related Services:
A somatic, narrative, and womb-honoring approach before and/or after surgery
This is so sacred to me:
I had my own hysterectomy at age 42 after a cervical cancer diagnosis.
I have created this service as a personal compassion project.
I believe body-mind-soul care for us is missing here,
regardless of the reason for the hysterectomy or procedure! -
I would be so honored to support you.
Please reach out if this resonates with you. ❤️
Hysterectomy is more than a physical procedure.
This offering provides gentle, structured support for women preparing for hysterectomy or integrating the experience afterward.
The focus is helping the body-mind-soul make sense of the complexity of emotions, sensations and meanings that are attached to a hysterectomy.
This work is deeply supportive care that is designed to help you feel accompanied, resourced, and whole as you move through this chapter, even decades later.
Womb Reiki is a unique application of Reiki that brings a focus on restoring life energy flow and alignment to your physical and metaphorical womb space, and whole self.
(Uterus is not required)
Womb Reiki supports nervous system regulation, which supports therapy goals.
You can have somatic touch work that focuses on healing and connection around the womb space, without Reiki.
Womb Reiki might support your Somatic Therapy if you:
Have had a positive experience and familiarity with Reiki sessions in the past, or are interested to try it out.
Have unresolved trauma related to the womb space:
difficult birth, losses, abortion, violations, infertility, medical diagnosis, difficulties or procedures; pain, intimacy problem
When, more broadly, you are wanting to release negative energies that might be preventing you from moving forward or freely in your life
in the form of negative beliefs, painful lingering emotions
or sensations around past or repeating patterns,
and you want to break free from those energies
When you are wanting to bring forward new projects, creative ideas into the world, and feel hesitations or blocks
When you would like to increase access to your intuition and connection with your self.
Womb Reiki is one holistic option available to you to support your therapy goals.
I only offer Womb Reiki in the context of Somatic Therapy.
(Not stand alone)
I have explored offering Womb Reiki outside of clinical therapy as a stand alone option.
I have concluded that Womb Reiki is powerful, and the majority of the womb reiki techniques that I have learned actually support trauma resolution, in very similar ways as Somatic Touch Therapy.
Womb Reiki supports Nervous system regulation, and allowing the mind-body-spirit to move through waves of activation, release and integration. This is a profoundly healing body-mind-spirit approach.
This happens in both Womb Reiki and Somatic Touch Work.
And to provide it responsibly, I would love to have all my "tools" - SE therapy and EMDR for example - to support you as you are on your journey of growth and transformation.
I am trauma informed and trained -and want to be able to freely provide the fullest range of support that I'm capable of offering.
To maintain integrity as a therapist, even outside of "therapy" I have ethics to follow that ensure I don't incidentally practice therapy without a license. I take that seriously.
After mentorship, education and aligning with my own womb wisdom and intuition, the 'somatic therapy' container is where I feel safest to keep YOU safest and supported well.
The commonality between somatic touch work and womb reiki is the power and magic of co-regulation and touch- an attuned presence that is here for you and responsive to you.
