In 2023 the World Health Organization estimated that 1 in 6 people globally are affected by infertility. The reasons are varied and complicated. But for a couple trying to conceive, the options for fertility support are limited and often include vicious cycles of medications, injections, stressful timed intercourse, and an exorbitant price tag. Women are looking for a more natural, less stressful experience to help them grow the family of their dreams.
Maya Abdominal Therapy offers fertility support that not only helps many couples get pregnant but can eliminate many of the underlying conditions that causes fertility challenges in the first place. Maya Abdominal Therapy corrects for the major imbalances that lead to digestive and hormonal complaints by addressing NAVEL imbalances – Nerve restriction, Arterial flow, Venal flow, Energetic blocks, and Lymph flow.
Here are 3 common reasons for infertility and how addressing the NAVEL through Maya Abdominal Therapy can help correct them for fertility support.
1. A misplaced uterus – The uterus is a muscular organ sitting just above the bladder in the lower abdomen. It is held in place by several sets of ligaments that allow
it to move and stretch when it’s time to grow a baby. The uterus can become mispositioned leading to a host of menstrual problems and then fertility challenges. NAVEL massage lifts and aligns the uterus to its optimal position, helping it to be buoyant and upright. When women have debilitating menstrual pain, absent periods, and dark blood it’s often the uterine position causing symptoms.
2. Blocked fallopian tubes – One or both of these tiny branches connecting each ovary to the uterus can become blocked with adhesions. When this happens, the egg cannot pass through and implant into the soft fertile lining of the uterus. NAVEL massage releases adhesions and scar tissue, allowing the egg clear passage to implantation.
3. Hormone balance – chronic stress, epigenetics, diet, and lifestyle all influence the nervous system, telling the body when it’s safe to be pregnant and when it’s not. Maya abdominal therapy and the NAVEL massage move the nervous system from a state of fight or flight into a state of rest and digest. Also known as the parasympathetic response, this signals to the brain that it’s safe to be pregnant and promotes the best chance at conceiving.
During a Maya abdominal therapy session, therapists teach their patients how to use self-care massage, nutrition, and lifestyle to regulate stress, have healthy menstrual cycles and boost their overall chances of conception.
