Maya Abdominal Therapy®
Dr. Rosita Arvigo, DN, developed these techniques, after apprenticing with Don Elijio Panti, the last of the Traditional Maya Shaman in Central America, where she has lived for over 30 years. Maya Abdominal Massage had been used to support reproductive and digestive health in that area for centuries. The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage™ combine modern science with traditional healing and wisdom to produce a holistic path to physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. Maya Abdominal Massage is a non-invasive, external, massage technique. It guides internal abdominal organs into their proper position for optimum health and well-being. Maya massage improves organ function by releasing physical and emotional congestion from the abdomen. This massage is effective for both men and women. The technique applies anatomy, physiology, herbology and naprapathy, (study of the ligaments, joints and muscles), with Ancient Maya healing techniques to address common female and male complaints. The technique works by relieving congestion and blockages to improve the flow of chi and fluids of the circulatory, lymphatic and nervous systems to prevent the progression of chronic disease symptomatology. Maya Spiritual Healing recognizes that many imbalances one experiences have their roots emotional and spiritual dis-ease. The Maya of Belize use plants, healing baths, copal (a plant resin that is burned), and prayers to God to support people in healing from susto (fright), pesar (grief), tristessa (sadness), envidia (envy), coraje (anger), and support a happy whole spirit.
