Well, look no further. At Sunshine Kate’s, we’ve been practicing yoni steaming for nearly a decade. I guess you could say we are trendsetters😀.. I’d prefer to say ‘Wisdom Excavators’, tapping back into the ancient practices to keep us connected to Earth’s wisdom.
what exactly is a yoni steam?
The art of vaginal steaming dates back thousands of years through indigenous African, Mayan, Native American, Caribbean, and Asian cultures. It is mentioned in early chronicles of Spanish friars.
It is a healing, rejuvenating and grounding experience that can be a vehicle in whole body support and radiance on all of these levels.
A yoni steam is a gentle way to bring warm steam and heat to the pelvis and to the yoni center (all encompassing), increasing circulation and energy flow. The moist heat opens up the pores of the tissues and the herbal infusion offers the medicinal benefits of the plants. Yoni steaming can support endocrine, lymphatic, urinary and digestive health.
The vaginal tissue is one of the most porous and absorbent of the entire female body. As a result, the steam is supportive for women’s reproductive, urinary and digestive health.
The customized blend of organic herbs is crafted together based on a client’s intake of her health concerns, symptoms and focus points.
A yoni steam is a very gentle process that does not involve any sort of high-pressure application of hot water or steam. The steam does not enter through the vagina itself, but rather the porous exterior tissues.
Aside from the physical benefits, the yoni steam can offer healing on the emotional and mental levels

WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN SEEKING OUT A YONI STEAM SESSION:
Since the yoni is the seat of a woman’s soul, this should be regarded in a sacred and respectful approach and it is important to work with a trained professional.
Seek treatment from a practitioner who has undergone a certification to understand the physical, emotional, mental and energetic components of a woman’s body ESPECIALLY her sacred terrain! The practitioner should have an womb certification and a background in herbal medicine.
I am proud to share that my education encompasses herbal science, nutrition and I have completed both a certified womb training and continued education in this work; along with my own personal healing journey.
