Heather Baker, CMT - wombworks massage, Sacramento, CA

This non-invasive, external massage technique supports proper alignment of the reproductive organs and releases restrictions to the flow of blood, lymph, nerve and chi. Uterine displacement and congestion can cause many of our female complaints plus other seemingly unrelated discomforts. These massage techniques were developed by Dr. Rosita Arvigo DN, who apprenticed with Don Elijio Panti, one of the last traditional Maya healers. She combines her knowledge of naprapathy, science, herbology, and wisdom from living in Central America for over 30 years to produce a holistic path to physical, emotional, and spiritual well being.
