The uterus is an amazing organ designed for movement. It pulsates when we feel joy, love, or excitement. It moves during periods, while growing babies and when orgasm.
This movement should be smooth and free of pain, even enjoyable. But unfortunately, most of us feel very disconnected from our bodies and our wombs have become a place to keep tension and lots of emotions, making this rhythm uncomfortable or even painful.
WHAT IS MIZAN THERAPY THEN?
Mizan is an Arabic word meaning “balance”. By using traditional reproductive healing techniques Mizan therapy seeks to address conditions involving the reproductive system, the digestive system, and the emotional balance.
Mizan Therapy uses traditional reproductive healing techniques to gently guide the pelvic organs back into their place. When the womb is in her optimum position, she no longer restricts the circulatory flow of blood, lymph, nerves, and qi (chi) energy. Mizan Therapy assists the body in restoring its natural balance.
The Mizan bodywork is a deep but gentle and relaxing, non-invasive external massage, that strengthens the abdomen and pelvis, works with the fascia and tight muscles and releases tension and anxiety in the area, it facilitates the internal organs to move to their balanced position for optimal health.

Can I have a Mizan treatment during my period?
During the days you are bleeding I can do “warm hands” but no deep work on the uterus will be performed. At this time your uterus is working to release endometrium and is also a time of natural detox for women, the release is both physical and emotional, this is why only “warm hands” over your uterus can be done now.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions needed always depends on your own healing journey and it is different for everyone. However, you are most likely to start feeling changes in your body from the first session.
Will I need to take my clothes off?
You do not necessary need to take your clothes off, it is up to you. You can take them off and be massaged under a cotton sheet or directly on your skin, whatever makes you feel safe and comfortable is always best.
The area of the body where I will be working is from your pubic bone up to your rib cage and inguinal area in the front and from the sacrum to the thoracic vertebrae in the back, your legs and buttocks.
What type of clothes should I wear?
I would recommend to wear comfortable loose clothes so you can relax without feeling any tightness or getting marks on your skin.
