It’s time to love your belly again, from the inside out.

Abdominal Therapy is based on the teachings of Dr. Rosita Arvigo. This ancient approach to healing teaches us that whole body health starts in our emotional and physical core. That magical space between the diaphragm and pelvic floor that holds all our secrets. Abdominal Therapy gives that space a voice, and an opportunity to heal.

Abdominal Therapy is beneficial for:

-fertility struggles

-menstrual cycle complaints

-menopause transition

-surgery healing/ scar tissue

-hysterectomy

-fibroids/cysts

-PCOS

-frequent bladder/kidney infections

-incontinence

-pelvic organ prolapse

-intimacy issues/ low libido

-digestive disorders

-pelvic pain

-trauma/emotional healing

-and so much more

Your first visit.

Once you schedule your INITIAL SESSION, your confirmation email will provide a link to fill out a Your Health Story Intake Form. This is lengthy, so please provide yourself with a quiet 10-20 minutes to thoughtfully fill this out. Your two hour initial visit will begin with an opportunity to express your story and history and hopes for this treatment. Lisa will dig deep into your health intake and ask further questions. Following the discussion will be the hands on portion of the session. The massage will focus on assessment and improvement of nerve, artery, vein, energy, and lymph flow through the abdomen. Work on other areas of the body are commonly wrapped into the bodywork as well. Lastly, you will learn some self-care

techniques to implement at home to enhance your healing.

Meet Lisa.
