Testimonials
“Teresa is absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend her! I’ve been receiving the Mayan Abdominal massage for several months now and have seen quite an improvement in my endometriosis symptoms and well-being. After researching extensively on Arvigo massage for managing severe endometriosis, particularly for relieving pain from adhesions, I came across Teresa and was very impressed. Patient, caring, and very knowledgeable, she found where my pain points were to relieve the pelvic congestion and to realign my organs so that they could function better. After endometriosis excision surgery, I was suffering from many muscle spasms and she helped my body reconnect. Teresa also taught me how to perform the massage on myself and tools for self-care. I can’t recommend Teresa enough - I am so happy to have found her!”

“I feel very strongly about the benefits of Arvigo massage and about Teresa Avelar, as a practitioner, that I tell anyone who is struggling with women’s health issues to see her as soon as possible. My husband and I had been trying to conceive our third child for over a year and as a woman approaching 40 I was told by two doctors that I might not be able to have another baby. I did not want to accept this answer so I started doing research into women’s fertility but became overwhelmed with the amount of information available.
One day I was listening to a podcast on women’s health when I heard about Arvigo massage for the first time and was intrigued with the concept and idea. The history of the practice is fascinating and it was clear that only a reputable, trained professional could properly practice this unique massage technique, which led me to Teresa.The first step on my journey was a phone interview. Teresa asked me a serious of important health questions that helped her to determine if I would be a good candidate for Arvigo massage and what my goals were. Theresa was very clear and helped me fully understand the process to help me decide if I was interested in moving forward with this treatment. After talking to her I was very excited to begin and we scheduled our first session.
Teresa’s office feels like the most zen, luxurious spa. Any nervousness I had melted away as soon as I met her. She is so warm and made me feel at home immediately. Teresa explained each step of the massage process as she went along.
For my treatment there would be daily self care involved (a crucial step) and she made sure I fully understood what I would need to do. For me this included performing the Arvigo massage on myself, heat and oil treatments and specifically timed vaginal steams with herbs carefully chosen my Teresa. I could not have done any of this on my own without her guidance and expertise. I followed Teresa’s instructions very carefully for a month and then came back for my next scheduled massage.
There are many different health issues that can be treated through Arvigo massage. Personally I was suffering from abnormal periods and uterine health issues. After one month of treatment I saw a noticeable improvement in my mensural cycle. I wasn’t expecting to see results so fast and I was pleasantly surprised. The following month I noticed even more significant improvements. Teresa had me on a three month treatment schedule because of my specific needs. After three months under her care and following her instructions for my home care I became pregnant with a healthy baby boy. I can honestly say that I do not believe this would have been possible without Arvigo massage. The dramatic improvement in my health has been priceless.
I plan to go back to Teresa for postpartum massage as soon as possible. I trust her and recommend her to anyone wanting to get healthier. I am so grateful for Teresa and for Arvigo massage.”
