Yes! All of my trainings have a deep grounding in trauma informed care, practice and methodology. I also continue to deepen my understanding and widen my trauma education and am constantly expanding my capacity to hold safe enough space in a wide variety of ways. I am also in the process of transitioning from trauma informed to trauma qualified as I continue some extensive trauma trainings to hold my work and offerings, which I will be sharing more about soon!

Absolutely! At the heart of my work is the premise that your sexuality is sacred, and that with loving compassionate presence, you can come into connection, belonging and aliveness with your body, sexuality and pelvis. I believe that is truly every being’s birthright. Ultimately, as your Pelvic Priestess, I am devoted to your embodied-mystery!

Pelvic Steaming is contra-indicated during pregnancy until the 37th week, at which point you can work with Pelvic Steaming to support your body for labour preparation. It is essential that you work with a Pelvic Steaming practitioner that has education in Pelvic Steaming for pregnancy and post-partum

When we have experienced loss in our pelvic bowl, the imprints of grief, rage, shame and so much more unique to your own personal experience can be present. I personally experienced many losses, and my own journey with Pelvic Steaming has been one of honouring, grieving and restoring life to my pelvic bowl. I highly recommend Pelvic Steaming if you are healing and integrating your experience of loss. We have truly lost the art of grief-tending in our communities, of being fully witnessed in our stages and experiences of loss. Physical and energetic touch can play a vital role in allowing us to process, co-regulate, and access our thriving.

Great question! Pelvic Steaming is used across the globe as a supportive healing tool for postpartum mothers, helping them to complete their postpartum ‘Lochia’ cleanse, ensuring that they have released any remaining afterbirth and fluid. Steaming may also support gentle tissue repair and uterine toning, and soften remedial scar tissue. During postpartum care, steaming can also deeply acknowledge a mother’s experience, creating a held and sacred space for her to process the rite of passage of the birth experience, gently tending to a mother’s healing and connection with her body and experience with artful devotion.

Unfortunately, and quite unbelievably, trauma is woefully neglected in sexual and pelvic health. It is unlikely that any specialist has actually asked you about your trauma history sensitively. Our medical professionals are expertly trained and have valuable skills, however more often than not, trauma is a very minimal part of medical training. There is also a lack of whole-body, whole-person perspective in Western medicine, and we are paying the price for the overly medicalised interventions of medication and surgery for pelvic health issues, and the outdated reliance on talk therapies as a sole method of trauma healing. This is why trauma informed, somatic and holistic bodywork is truly revolutionary in terms of sexual healing and pelvic health.

Pelvic Steaming is highly beneficial for those experiencing menstrual cycle dysregulation. However, it is contra-indicated to steam when you have any active bleeding from menstruation, or any irregular bleeding or spotting at any other time during your cycle.

As with any type of bodywork there are soft and hard contraindications for working together. It is highly recommended that you inform me on your Intake Form of any of the following so that I can make informed recommendations:

• Spontaneous heavy bleeding within the past 3 months
• Two periods per month (i.e. a period every two weeks) in the past 3 months
• If you are pregnant
• If there is a possibility of you being pregnant
• If trying to conceive, and you are past ovulation or IUI/IVF transfer
• If you have an infection characterised with a burning itch
• If you have tubal coagulation
• If you have a birth control arm implant
• If you have had a uterine ablation procedure
• If you have an Essure insert/IUD

Pelvic Steaming Consultations are available online (via Zoom), or in-person, at my therapy home, Suffolk Yoga, in Ipswich. I have a beautiful, quiet and peaceful private room with access to bathroom facilities. Suffolk Yoga’s ethos is one that my heart and womb can align with. The entire space and the offerings available are truly centred in a whole person, whole body, holistic somatic approach.

Please note that parking is limited. Usually I can organise a space for you directly outside the building. However when this is not possible, parking is available during the day at Fore St Swimming Pool. Cut through St. Clements Church Lane to Grimwade Street and cross the road. We are located in the white building at the front of Sorrel Horse Mews. I will refund your parking payment for the 90-minute session.

It is super important to me that you receive the ongoing support that you require with your Pelvic Steaming journey, so that we can work with your body as your ritual space.

For that reason, I offer you up to four optional quarterly follow-up consultations free of charge, to be taken during the 12-months following your Pelvic Steaming Consultation. These consultations last for 20 minutes.

Pelvic Steaming alone may be sufficient for you to release, integrate and offer your pelvic bowl the restoration that you need, with love, safety and belonging.

However, for long-term pelvic imbalances, where you may be holding long held trauma and stress patterns, emotional blockages and sexual shame and pain, you may require deepening work to fully unwind, awaken and liberate your pelvic well-being.

My own sexual and pelvic healing journey has absolutely necessitated a multi-layered approach to create the embodied safety that I needed to claim my pelvic bowl as a space of resource, creativity and power.

I have spent the last decade integrating a wide range of sexuality, pelvic and bodywork practices to support your needs and desires. Should you choose, but completely without expectation, you are invited to deepen into a Pelvic Priestess pathway that meets you where you are. This may include coaching, bodywork, sacred sexuality practices, trauma release work. I am continually amazed by the human capacity to heal, and I consider it a privilege to share a thread of that journey with you.

Beautiful! I am so glad to hear that you are ready to answer the call and say yes to your journey. Let’s connect! You are invited to book your FREE complimentary Pelvic Temple Call with me today, where we can learn a little more about each other, and begin to understand what you truly desire to work on in our sessions with regard to your pelvic and sexual health, addressing your most pressing needs and deepest desires. I will also gently hold space for your questions, and any concerns that you may have. This is a call for you to discover more about working with me. There is no obligation to sign up - I understand that commiting to working with any practitioner is a big decision, and it is imperative that we both feel resonant to work with each other and co-create the transformation, beauty and empowered change that you are desiring. If we are aligned to working with each other, I will offer you a pathway that feels right for you. Your complimentary Pelvic Temple Call is 60 minutes long, and held over Zoom. You do not need to have your own Zoom account. When you book your Pelvic Temple Call, you will receive a link that invites you into my personal Zoom-womb!

Okay, let's wade through the bullshit that so often happens in these spaces! Quite simply, I believe the way that you identify. I also appreciate that can change and shift in the most beautiful and organic and creative ways possible. I believe in respecting that, which is why I believe you get to language and express yourself as you choose, and I will make every endeavour to support that. I have experienced containers that have injured my experiences and various identities, and I understand that this is a significant issue in sexual and pelvic healing that I intend to challenge on the deepest level.

I am also aware that your various identities, experiences and intersectionalities will not always be a part of my lived experience and vocabulary. I am in the work to dismantle the vestiges of patriarchy, colonialism, sexism, racism, homophobia and ableism. I accept that there will be times that I get things wrong, need to make repair, and ask better questions of myself. I am committed to continue to learn and discover ways to integrate healing the disconnection that systems of oppression have created.

Personally and professionally, I am continuing to uplevel my education and unpack the embodied politics of race, gender and sexuality in order to become a ‘safer space holder’ for BIPOC, queer, trans, and GE Folk. As a bodyworker, it is never my place to assert that I can hold safe space. Instead, I work on the premise that as a trauma-informed bodyworker, my commitment is to co-creating ‘safer space’ with the openness to learn, repair and grow.

I am also committed to ensuring that pelvic health care begins to language diversity. I am taking action to bring this into my own work and scope of practice. Please know that as a Pelvic-Priestess I am devoted to your embodied-mystery, and I will do my best to meet you in all of your intersectional whole person identities, deeply listening to how you wish to express and be compassionately met.
