Nothing is more frustrating than knowing something feels ‘off’ in your body, yet not knowing where to turn. You can sense there’s an underlying cause behind your menstrual cramping or infertility, but the answers you receive often fall short.

Maybe you’ve even been told that your symptoms are “normal”, or worse, they get dismissed altogether. Oh, I hate that!

If I had a dime for every time a woman looked at me wide-eyed and said, 

“Wait… menstrual cramping isn’t normal?!”

…well, I’d need to take a visit to a coinstar kiosk!

This is the story I hear again and again from women who seek out Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy® (ATMAT).  

WHAT IS ATMAT?

ATMAT is rooted in ancient healing philosophies of Mayan shamans, in particular a famed healer named Don Elijio Panti. Panti believed that the uterus is the woman’s center. If her uterus is not properly positioned and in good health, her entire life will feel out of sync.

This therapy uses gentle, non-invasive external abdominal and pelvic massage and manipulation to:

  • Support the natural position of the uterus and pelvic organs
  • Improve blood and lymphatic flow (hemodynamics)
  • Enhance nerve communication
  • Restore energetic flow within the abdomen and pelvis
  • Reduce stagnation and congestion
  • Encourage the body’s natural ability to self-repair

When alignment and circulation improve, symptoms often begin to shift. And beyond its physical benefits, Arvigo Therapy is also a profound act of self-care. It invites you to slow down, reconnect, and listen to your womb’s wisdom.

WHAT CAN ATMAT HELP WITH?

  • Infertility 
  • Preconception preparation
  • Pelvic congestion (endometriosis, cysts, fibroids, painful/swollen labia minora)
  • Painful periods
  • Post-surgical (cesarean, hysterectomy etc.)
  • PCOS
  • Pelvic organ prolapse
  • Urinary issues like chronic UTIs, incontinence, urgency and frequency
  • Common digestive disorders like bloating, constipation, reflux and IBS
  • Varicose veins

SIDE NOTE: 

I find that my patients are in such a deeply relaxed, introspective state after their treatments that I often encourage some “me-time”; perhaps a walk or journaling to process the release. 

ATMAT is truly powerful.

I’m convinced it played a major role in helping my husband and me conceive naturally.

READY TO TRY IT?

If this resonates with you, or if someone you love is struggling with the symptoms above, I highly recommend booking a Mayan Abdominal Massage for Women session whether you have a uterus, or you have had a uterus.

And good news: you do not need to be an established patient to receive this therapy!
