What herbs are typically used to steam and why?

 These are just a few  but Mugwort: In addition to fighting infection through its antibiotic and anti-fungal properties, mugwort balances female hormones and stimulates the production of hormones that help to maintain uterine health as well as protect the uterus from things such as ulcers and tumors. Mugwort steam opens the pores, allowing the beneficial herbs to penetrate into the blood stream. In addition, mugwort helps to stimulate menstrual discharge and ease cramping.

Rosemary: An aromatic and antimicrobial herb, rosemary treats bacterial infection, speeds wound healing, inhibits yeast growth, and stimulates menstruation.

Does Yoni Steaming Really Work?

According to various case studies, vaginal steaming appears to improve symptoms in over 90% of all gynecological problems and shows tremendous potential as an alternative to invasive medical procedures.
There's clear reason why women everywhere have used it for thousands of years. There's nothing that compares to it.
One thing is evident--vaginal steaming doesn't hurt, and--if it does work in a specific case--it's a really good alternative to surgery and artificial hormones. For most, it is practical and affordable to give it a try.

What does Yoni Steaming feel like?

Good question! It could be described as it feeling like you are taking a warm shower; it is just specifically for your private area. No there will not be water splashing around everywhere, it will only be steam and moisture that you feel. It is quite relaxing.  It will be an experience that will make you ask yourself why you waited so long to ever try it.

What is the Age Requirement for Yoni Steam?

Here at the Yoni Lounge starting early is always best. We recommend that she has had at least Two cycles, so essentially this could be any age our little princess  start at different ages so whether its 8 or 13. We recommend the Mommy and Me Steam she can have a steam with the Female adult in her life(mom, older sister over 18, grandmother, auntie) together for 25 mins.

How long do I have to steam before seeing improvement?

Each woman is created different and results very from each woman. Other Yoni Practitioners with years of experience have stated they have received awesome feedback! Some things that you may experience comfort from after only 1 Yoni Steam are: reduced menstrual flow on the next cycle
less cramping
Vaginal Odor relief
For other conditions, we suggest you find your "rhythm" Rhythm meaning how many times you would like to steam. As long as you are not pregnant, on your menstrual or spotting, you can Yoni Steam! Some women steam up to 4 times per month.

Who Can not steam?

First and most importantly, women who are pregnant, or think there is any possibility that they might be, should NOT do any type of yoni steam. Doing so may endanger the pregnancy, as many of the herbs used can alter hormone levels and can cause contractions of the uterus. For the same reason, it is also not recommended for women who have an Intrauterine Device (IUD). Women who have any type of internal infection (cervical, uterine or ovarian inflammation), or a fever, are encouraged not to steam until the symptoms have passed. Women also should not steam while menstruating or when open sores or blisters are present. We created our Herbal Bath Soaks for anyone but specifically for those who can not get a steam.
