Welcome to Womb Care

Ravenshoe (pronounced Ravens-Hoe)- Atherton Tablelands – Australia

There is a lot on this page to read/digest/link to – YOU need to know what is missing and what you may feel attuned to – there is so much on offer.

You may wish to immerse yourself in your own understanding towards healing – a weekend course with me – 6 women maximum.
Come and enjoy community. Bring food to share and explore what initiation could have helped us with.

See more about me and what I do here
All reproductive issues – MALE and female a specialty (esp if IVF did not work – shall we start at the beginning and get the body baby ready first?)

‘Womb work’ is subtle, gentle & profound – Where did some of this work come from? Oral traditions steeped in Nature

You may have done everything, and STILL your back, belly, legs, neck, bladder are IN TROUBLE

When you choose to see me – as my myriad hats over the decades include acupuncturist, acupuncture course designer, creator, teacher and mentor, Western and Chinese herbalist, naturopath, natural birth keeper/doua (before they exited), body and womb worker and all round natural health detective, when all else seems lost – that is my shining moment. Now as a sage femme (wise elder), I see life from all aspects as lived experience . .

QUESTION – Who thinks of getting the centre back where it belongs? Everything flowing as it did? So you are no longer ‘high maintenance’?

Q – Why RAVENSHOE?
I live here. (See map at the bottom of the page). I see a need. When nothing else has helped. . . . shall we start with the beginning – is all where it is supposed to be? What broke you? Answering these may be the beginning of a new life. Experience being aligned again
Q – Why WOMB?
Is the centre of our pelvis. Men have a prostate – their womb. Women have the space – if it is removed.
Q – Why ‘CARE’?
Missing initiations,seeking the men’s (medical) versions of what to do when things are difficult has missed something huge – caring for the one inside the structure. Here it is all intertwined. With no owner’s manual – what to do?

Likely you are curious
Why WOMB care? Because this is overlooked. Our centre – the hub of the wheel – is often not aligned. Throwing everything else out. Constant back/neck/pelvic and leg issues. Bladder issues and all gyne upsets may be so simple. Add in varicose veins, the inability to enjoy affairs of the bedroom and even being able to sit comfortably. Could it be this simple? Often – YES.

We all had/have a womb. Men – were initially set to the mammalian default setting – so their bits altered, with the DHT (dihydrotestosterone) to become a prostate. All their bits started as female – altered for their male needs. Thus their womb – prostate – will be as upset by modern life, as a woman’s womb. Usually showing up around the time a woman is experiencing The Change – the men get sidelined by their peeing and prostate woes: MEN see more here.

Understanding a woman’s seven year cycles (men have eight year ones) – and how to work with the tides, seasons and stages of life

You are here as you are seeking something

To be here you likely have a womb – or had one. You were born of woman. You may know that getting back to womb is your central calling now – or have significant LIFE HURTS to be resolved.
Was it the last birth – however long ago?
The last operation – and what it left you with?
The last test that ‘conclusively’ shut a door for your future?
Was it the last crisis that was the last straw?

What people knew – how to live with the seasons and nature – farming kept all alive.
Wise women’s ways – initiations and rite so f passage
Pelvic opening – Heather’s foundational moves all can play with at home.
Practical life enhancing look at life – from the energy acupuncture/ East Asian medicine models

In my initial acupuncture /body relieving (everyone came to seek help with pain) natural healing centre, I quickly found that those who relaxed, felt safe in my care let go of often astonishing hidden stored secrets. Releasing these, often with a gentle touch, allowed the healing they had desperately sought. I discovered that almost all gyne, and older women’s tableau of suffering lightened when we cleared what had held the body hostage. Letting the stories go. Belly work forms part of a combination of traditional safe techniques that relieve any inner congestion. Improving the flow of circulatory, lymphatic, fluid and nervous systems and the Qi (pronounced ‘chee’) allows your body to return to perfect.

‘Common’ sense – Follow nature – Cycles, seasons of life

“When a women’s womb is out of balance – so is she”

Don Elijio Panti – the master who taught Dr ROSITA ARVIGO. Something was/is missing – I FOUND IT in 2014 and have developed womb care – for all. Men’s prostate is their womb. Those without their’ s have even more trouble – the space, and unresolved issues – It all matters.

Dr Arvigo was the pivot – awakening women’s womb awareness out into the wider world. Beginning in Belize (central America). Her womb work spawned others who now teach womb work including ex Arvigo (global), the Abdominal Therapy Collective (US based), and offshoots as Mizan (UK based), also from Claire’s fertility (UK based), now seen locally as Womb Embodied Massage (Cairns based). So many of us have run with this in our own ways. Heather’s Gentling Way is a merger of the best of Arvigo, Mercier and Heather’s own Moving Blockages to Healing style – initially as an acupuncturist working with Qi moving, lymph and fascial clearing with her hands, moxa and whatever else worked.

Mechanical placement is a tiny portion of Heather’s Gentling Ways – as Being STUCK does not allow your flows to flow. Where our bits are, matters. The organs are designed to be where they fit best. Sliding and gliding within us, responding to all we do, and the digestive, elimination (peeing and poohing) and reproductive needs – for women – all gets displaced in growing a baby.

What if you were truly aligned? All where its was designed to be? Would that make a difference? It does to a car.

Structure determines function

Troubles that may indicate you are not aligned . . .
Things not right ‘down there’, or in your legs, or back, or neck.
Or gut – and nothing you do seems to make sense.

• Mind-Body Connection: Bring you back to presence – you LIVE in that body. A deeper awareness your core promotes letting go of what no longer is needed to be carried.
• Digestive Function: May support digestive comfort and help the body maintain healthy function by encouraging circulation and gentle alignment in the abdominal area.
• Menstrual Health: Can complement menstrual well being by supporting circulation and relaxation, potentially easing tension and discomfort associated with the monthly cycling.
• Reproductive Support: May assist in creating a balanced and comfortable pelvic environment, which leads to the natural conclusion of ovulation – pregnancy.
• Easy, painless pregnancy – as all is encouraged back to where it works perfectly
• Easy natural birthing and beyond – as all works as nature – as all mammals are designed to.
• Postpartum Recovery: However long ago that last baby happened – including effective healing after C sections – historical – often decades past.
• Pelvic Health: Supporting general pelvic well being and comfort, including areas of tension or mild discomfort, to vast post operative distress.
• ‘The Change’ – as women journey through the decades – retrieve the blueprint of easy transitions from one phase to the next.

Abdominal massage is gentle non-invasive, external touch that is effective for anyone’s belly/life

Body Remembers Everything That Ever Happened To You

Shock and all that ‘shook’ you up – is all still there – and it maters.
I start with what I call Triage – undo the shock/trauma
Pull out what is not supposed to be there (messing with flows)
Undo the adhesions,. scars that block normal circulation
THEN maybe you do not need a diagnosis, or the treatments offered –
OR maybe undoing all that means – your body now does what it is designed to do
