What is it?
The Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy
® are founded on an ancient Maya technique of abdominal massage.
They are non-invasive, external, massage techniques that correctly reposition internal organs that have shifted and thereby restricted the flow of blood, lymph, nerve impulses and chi. Gently guiding and supporting organs back into their optimal position allows for improved functioning for optimal health and wellness.
Maya Abdominal Therapy can release emotional congestion from the abdomen and helps prevent the progression of chronic disease symptoms.
The upper abdomen is given a deep, thorough massage to loosen the tight muscles around the stomach and the arteries that feed the digestive and eliminative organs with their vital blood supply. Arvigo® Therapy is best known for the correction of the prolapsed, fallen, or tilted uterus and for the prevention and treatment of benign prostate enlargement in men, and for relief of many common digestive disorders.
How does it work?
ORIGINS OF ARVIGO® THERAPY
Based on over thirty years of training and experience in massage, naprapathy, herbology, and spiritual healing, Dr. Rosita Arvigo, DN developed these techniques, which now bear her name. This modality incorporates a holistic approach to health care which includes massage, anatomy and physiology, herbology, nutrition, and emotional and IxChel, Maya Goddess of Healing spiritual healing. Dr. Arvigo believes that with any natural healing technique, these areas must be simultaneously addressed to promote optimal health.
Arvigo® Therapy was developed by Dr. Arvigo on the basis of her ten year apprenticeship with Don Elijio Panti of Belize and her own education, training, and research as a naprapathic physician.
Don Elijio Panti, was the great Maya Shaman of Belize, Central America, who believed that a woman's centre is her uterus. "If a woman's uterus is out of balance, so is she," he would say. Midwives and healers of Central America agree that most female troubles are caused by the wandering womb. Don Elijio passed away in 1996 at the age of 103.

Rosita also studied with Hortence Robinson, a traditional midwife and herbalist of Belize who began delivering babies when she was only 13. Today the Arvigo® techniques are employed by Arvigo® Practitioners across the globe bringing the benefits of natural healing to their clients.
