What is yoni steaming?

​

The word, yoni, is a Sanskrit term that refers to a woman's womb center as a sacred space or temple. The vaginal steam, known in other cultures as the bajo, Chai-yok, hip bath, v steam or yon steam is a remedy that is becoming  as the ancient wisdom for women's healing. This gentle treatment provides effective support for the female reproductive system and invites reconnection with the power and creativity of a woman's center.

How does a yoni steam work?

​

The tissues of the vagina and rectum are especially porous and absorbent, and the warmth of the steam works to soften and open them. Often women have painful cycles due to accumulations of incompletely flushed menstrual fluids encrusted in the membranes of the uterine wall. The steam combined with the medicinal herbs and water provides a very healing and comforting effect. When the herbs are placed in hot water, their medicinal properties, including volatile oils, are released and carried to the surface of your skin and to the inside of the vagina/genitals where they are absorbed into the bloodstream.
