Steamy and nurturing practice: what is v-steaming?

Women around the globe use v-steaming (also called vaginal steaming, yoni steaming, bajo, or chai-yok), a technique of sitting over a pot of boiling water that is infused with re-energizing natural herbs.

This comfortable treatment offers effective support to the female reproductive system, and encourages reconnection with the creative, powerful essence of the feminine center.

What are the benefits of steaming your vagina?

For centuries, women have been using this ancient practice to alleviate menstrual discomfort, firm up the pelvic floor muscles, and enhance sexual pleasure.

Below are a few ways v-steaming could benefit you:

Help with postpartum healing
Reduces menstrual discomfort and regulates menstruation

If the steam herbs have anti-fungal, anti-bacterial and otherwise healing properties, v-steaming can help ward off several health problems in the vaginal region
Enhance pleasure during intimacy
Increase libido and promote natural lubrication in your vagina

Find out how to do a v-steam safely

In order for the steaming process to be safe, whether by using a special steam stool or just putting a suitable vessel in a toilet (DIY version), it is suggested that the water and herbs are positioned a minimum of 16 inches from the vulva, and also that the steam goes up naturally without a consistent source of heat.

During your v-steam session in the convenience of your home, wrap a sizable sheet or blanket surrounding your waist to keep steam from escaping.

As part of an overall wellness ritual, our recommendation is that healthy women steam 2-3 times every month, however, preferably not when you are menstruating.
