Whether you’re having problems with sex, trying to get pregnant, experiencing itching, odors, infections or other issues, OR you just want to be sure that you’re taking the best care of your lady partsi -- and therefore of your whole self --Femitology’s range of100% natural, organic, herbal products, and our health-driven alternative approach to feminine body care, can help you pamper and love your body the best way: from the inside out!
The Femitology collection includes a variety of organic, plant-based products for internal and external use, designed to cleanse and balance your body for optimal feminine health. The initial product offerings are centered around the benefits of herbal vaginal steaming in the form of a sitz-bath.
Vaginal steaming is a self-care practice that increases circulation to the uterus and entire pelvic floor, using aromatic herbs that detoxify and ultimately create homeostasis, or balance, in your body. Basically, you sit or squat above a bowl of steaming water infused with a variety of herbs, carefully selected to address your specific needs or issues.
You can read more about the specifics of each blend as you work your way through this website.
Well, that’s a big question with a ton of answers! The benefits are both physical and emotional: steaming restores pH balance, which can help prevent and even cure infections and get rid of bad odors; it helps reduce period pain and bloating, can help the healing of your reproductive sexual organs after giving birth, can help regulate your cycle, maybe even help you become pregnant. It can help you release stored emotions and anxiety, reduce insomnia, and create a state of bliss. And that’s just a few of the many ways that Vaginal Steaming can help support your total feminine health!
When you start, we recommend steaming up to three times a month. A great time to start is right after your period, to clean out any remaining blood or tissue and give you a fresh start to the month. It’s also great after intercourse…but it’s NOT a birth control device!
PRECAUTIONS
You should NOT steam while you are menstruating. The heat and steam can speed up and/or increase your bleeding, and in rare cases, cause possible hemorrhaging. PLEASE WAIT until you have completely stopped bleeding.
But don’t despair -- our fabulous Loving My Womb Detox Tea can work miracles at that time of the month; read on for more info on that.
Definitely not! Steaming while pregnant is unsafe; the process of receiving the steam and the herbs relaxes and opens up the cervix, which could result in miscarriage or premature labor. WAIT until at least two or three days after giving birth, and definitely until all red blood is gone. Under no circumstances should you steam if ANY red blood is present.
No, steaming with vaginal infection or open sores will irritate sores and cause infection to worsen. Please seek professional health care.
How long should each steaming session be?It is recommended to steam for 10 minutes if it’s your FIRST time and up to 20 to 30 minutes for regular steamers
You should NOT vaginal steam if:
YES! Burning is a concern in any operation that includes boiling water and hot steam. So take care! If you're making your own steam at home, be mindful not to touch the boiling water, but we also recommend waving your hand over the steaming pot to judge heat and squatting distance.
