What exactly is v-steaming?

Women of all ages across the world do v-steaming (often called vaginal steaming, yoni steaming, chai-yok, or bajo), a technique of sitting over a pot of steaming water with re-energizing herbs.

This self-care practice is meant to help you reconnect with your feminine essence as well as your sacred flower.

Learn how to perform v-steams at home

In order for the steaming process to be safe, whether utilizing a steam chair or simply placing a bowl in the toilet (DIY version), it is recommended that the water and herbs are positioned a minimum of 16 inches from your vulva, and that the steam rises the natural way without having a consistent heat source.

Make sure to put a big sheet or blanket surrounding your waist down to the ground ensuring that no steam escapes during your v-steam session at home.

A healthy woman can steam in average two to three times each month as part of a general wellness regime, preferably at a time when you are not having your period.

Please refer to this page for more detailed guidelines about how to properly do a v-steam.

Are v-steams safe?

V-steaming is normally safe for any healthy woman. There are conditions, however, in which you shouldn’t steam your vagina.

V-steaming is not to be done by women who wish to become pregnant or who are already pregnant.
We do not recommend making use of v-steaming herbs for those who have an intrauterine device (IUD).
Women who have any kind of internal infection (uterine, cervical or ovarian inflammation), or even a fever, are suggested not to steam until the symptoms have subsided.
Moreover, women need to avoid v-steaming whenever going through their monthly periods or when suffering from open blisters or sores.

A guide to selecting the right v-steam herbs

Either dry or fresh plants are suggested. At the same time, if possible, get organic plants. The most widely used herbs are:

Lavender: healing and soothing, supports normal menstrual cycles
Yarrow plant: Astringent, cleansing and tonifying, balances menstrual cycles
Mugwort: anti-bacterial and anti-fungal medicinal properties, hormone balancing especially for women, soothing properties
