Find out how to do a vaginal steam (without having a seat)

In order for the steaming process to be safe, whether using a steam box or just placing a suitable vessel in a toilet (do-it-yourself version), it is recommended that the herbs and water are placed at least 16 inches away from the vagina, and also that the steam goes up in a natural way without a steady source of heat.

During your vaginal steam session at your home, put a large sheet or blanket surrounding your waist to stop steam from getting out.

A healthy woman can steam in average 2-3 times per month as a part of a general self-care regime, preferably at a time you are not having your period.
