I experienced incredible nervous system relaxation and recalibration as a result of the length of the session. To have unhurried space to ease into the treatment and then rest deeply for an extended period of time in Elvina’s care is a unique experience. RK
During the coccyx massage, I was able to open more deeply and experienced tingles all over my back and a sense of awakening numb and stuck spaces. EG
After regular Womb Hara treatments, my health has really improved. For someone who has had brain fog for most of my life, I have enjoyed a level of clarity for increasing periods of days after each session. DA
So grateful for this opportunity to deepen my relationship to my womb and to learn of the intimate potential of sisterhood through this artful healing! I’m feeling so amazingly present in my body after our session, thank you RK
I have had disturbing and traumatic dreams most of my life and since my first treatment, my dreams are more empowered and peaceful and as a result, my erratic sleep has also improved. DA
‘Divinely orchestrated’ are the first words that stir in my womb as I sit to write this. I felt numerous activations during the sessions in moments of guided visualisation, shamanic sounds and the use of breath. AM
Elvina is very dedicated to this beautiful healing work and has a caring and professional approach. I would highly recommend this modality to anyone with gut or health issues as it is so relaxing and comforting. DA
I connected beautifully with the moxa at the end of the session. I felt the channel from the point of contact directly to my wombspace, the warmth flowing down into me with such potency! EG
Integrative Womb Hara Massage
Womb Hara Massage is a sacred bodywork practice that combines the modalities of Chi Nei Tsang, Mayan Abdominal Massage, Fertility Massage, Womb Awakening and Emotional Anatomy into a deeply nurturing and healing experience.
This therapy works through many layers to help release trauma from the body, which as women, we hold primarily in our womb. Through sacral and abdominal massage, the flow of vital life force or Chi is increased, which helps to clear blockages and stagnant energy, restoring balance to the nervous system.
Womb Hara Massage may help to address:
- symptoms caused by menstrual pain and cycle imbalances
- fertility issues and postpartum healing
- healing emotional and digestive issues
- ovarian cysts, fibroids, endometriosis
- lower back pain and sciatica
- anxiety, depression, stress
- menopausal issues
- energy blockages and much more.
Ancient Roots for Modern Times
Womb massage dates back to the Temple Priestesses from many ancient cultures, such as Egypt, Greece, Africa, India, Mexico, Russia and China, where massage of the womb and abdominal areas was practiced for millennia to heal women’s physical, emotional and ancestral trauma. They held sacred space for spiritual transformation and healing in rituals of beauty, pleasure, love and bliss.
Our womb is the key to embodied feminine awakening, our holy Grail. She is our birthing portal and the gateway of our creative potential. Our womb is also a doorway between worlds, where Spirit enters the growing foetus and also an energetic portal for shamanic journeying to other dream worlds and dimensions. In this time of the Great Remembering, women are being called to step up into their fullest potential, to release the illusion of separation and awaken to the wisdom of their womb and our greatest ally, love.

Inspiration
I feel so blessed that Womb Awakening has crossed my path. It has brought so much beauty, healing and insight into my life along with a burning desire to reconnect with my feminine intuitive skills and my ancient ancestral lineage. https://www.wombawakening.com.au/
I have experienced womb amnesia for most of my life, with the resulting ovarian cysts, short, heavy and irregular cycles, uterine fibroids, curettes etc. Discovering this wonderful work has inspired me to help facilitate healing and awareness of this precious feminine gift, the womb.
For me, the Womb Hara massage work is a nourishing and reverent modality, honouring the sacred within every woman. My intention is to share healing touch and sound, rekindle the ancient feminine wisdom, reawaken our innate potential to live in vibrant health and radiant joy, and to fully open to love, perfect balance and sacred union within.
Healing Pathways
Some of the ways in which Womb Hara massage can help facilitate healing is through the increased blood flow to the reproductive organs and digestive tract, relaxation of the diaphragm and psoas muscle, as well as activation of the pudendal and vagus nerves.
The pudendal nerve is the main nerve in the perineum and genitalia and can easily be damaged from falls, prolonged sitting, cycling, horse riding and even constipation. It is responsible for sexual pleasure and orgasm. Releasing tension around the coccyx can have a positive effect on this nerve.
In the Taoist tradition, the psoas is spoken of as the ‘muscle of the soul’. It surrounds the Hara, a major energy centre of the body containing your vitality and power. It is connected to the diaphragm through the fascia, which affects both our breath and fear reflex. So by relaxing your psoas during Womb Hara massage, you are literally energising your deepest core and allowing subtle energies to flow freely through your body.
Recalibration
Abdominal Massage and Sound Therapy both have a profound restorative effect on the nervous system. In our modern day culture, many people are running on caffeine, adrenaline and stress, which triggers our sympathetic nervous system (fight, flight or freeze response) reducing blood flow to vital organs of digestion and reproduction. It is so important for our bodies to recalibrate back into the rest, digest and enjoy state, and these modalities can help.
The vagus nerve originates in the brain, has multiple connections to the ear, then makes its way down to the lower internal organs. It is the longest nerve in the body and is responsible for many regulatory functions including the parasympathetic nervous system, which controls digestion, heartbeat, respiration and reproduction. It also restores relaxation after a response to stress or danger.
For this reason physically massaging the abdominal area or using healing sounds (such as toning, energy chimes and Tibetan singing bowls), has the capacity to stimulate the vagus nerve & therefore nourish all the vital internal organs, as well as the nervous system, brain, heart and the limbic system.

Rebozo Wrap
At the end of the Womb Hara massage, the Rebozo wrap (also known as the reclamation of the soul) is a beautiful restorative treatment to seal and nurture your body. It is deeply relaxing and draws you back into the womb, aligning you with Earth and Universal energies.
Testimonial: The wrapping experience was so very beautiful, like nothing I’ve ever experienced! As I was wrapped and gently rocked, I felt like an infant in the crib, and experienced a deep essence of surrender. As the wrapping continued I entered a space of watery darkness and stillness, peace and fluidity, the visions and colours are what I can only describe as a womb-space. What a profound witnessing! Not only was this beautiful, but a feeling of deep recalibration, healing right from the core was experienced. The sound healing instruments allowed this to penetrate through in crystalline patterning.
Beautiful Dorrigo Plateau
The Womb Hara massage sessions will take place in my octagonal cedar yurt, a womb like sacred space full of beauty and high vibrational magick. It looks out upon a sea of Antarctic beech forest and if you are lucky enough to come in October, you will see the giant waratah tree outside its western window in full bloom.
Testimonial: It was such a joy to experience a session in Elvina’s healing space at her forest home. The loving intention in every inch of the space allowed the healing work to begin as soon as I entered. Working with Elvina has been an absolute privilege and pleasure, and I have tangibly felt a big shift in physical symptoms in my ovaries. After exploring so many modalities, therapies, dietary and lifestyle changes, it is a huge sigh of relief to experience something that works on such a profoundly deep level. Elvina’s focused presence, gentle, intuitive support and the healing skills that she has developed over her lifetime come together for a beautiful, unique experience! Many lessons of the intimate potential of sisterhood through this artful healing too. EG
After your session, you are welcome to relax in the arms of an ancient moss covered Antarctic Beech tree (weather permitting) to help you integrate all the energy that will be pulsing through your body before driving home. Bring your own lunch or I am happy to cook up a yummy organic wrap for a small contribution.
