COURSE DESCRIPTION:
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it is believed that cold and stagnation in the pelvic area negatively affects a woman’s health and may result in gynecological conditions such as menstrual pain, fibroids, endometriosis, and unexplained infertility. Vaginal steaming is used to clear cold and stagnation from the body, thus increasing circulation and oxygen, opening up blood vessels, and relaxing pelvic floor muscles. Additional benefits are dependent on the type of Chinese herbs used during the steaming process.

In this course, Kris Gonzalez shares health secrets from her Korean family and clinical experience as a TCM acupuncture practitioner on how vaginal steaming exponentially benefits women’s reproductive health. Participants will learn how vaginal steaming helps to facilitate the ease of menstrual flow to assist in fertility, details of how vaginal steaming should be performed correctly, the what types of herbs to use to help treat major challenges such as infections, irregular menstruation, fibroids, endometriosis, and ovarian cysts. This course will look at the translation for vaginal steaming in Chinese Medicine texts, patterns and diseases that are best addressed with vaginal steaming, and modern uses of vaginal steaming.
