Pelvic steaming (also referred to as vaginal steaming or yoni steaming for women and lingam steaming for men) involves making a large pot of tea and sitting over the medicinal herbal steam while it circulates gentle nourishing warmth throughout the reproductive organs. Pelvic steaming is a universal tradition that's been practiced for thousands of years, especially to benefit women’s health. The practice is thankfully making a comeback in Western mainstream populations after being suppressed since Colonial times by a patriarchal medical establishment.

Pelvic steaming has numerous benefits for people of all ages. It's most commonly used in postpartum recovery to regenerate the tissues from any tears, prolapse or trauma after the birthing process. Steam users have also reported lubrication increasing, cysts dissolving, fibroids shrinking and hormone balancing. Other recorded benefits include releasing infections, clearing trauma, tuning menstrual cycles, improving fertility, relieving pain, assisting contraception, and regulating the nervous system.
