Pelvic closing using the Rebozo supports postnatal recovery and helps women on their journey back to greater stability, balance and well-being.
The traditional Mexican Rebozo scarf is used to gently support the pelvis, back and joints, promote relaxation and consciously guide the transition into motherhood. The Rebozo ritual combines physical recovery with emotional and energetic support during the postnatal period.
Pelvic closing is a traditional practice using the rebozo, a Mexican cotton cloth, to help the body recover and regain its balance after childbirth.
The rebozo is a traditional, usually hand-woven cloth originating from Mexico, which has been used for generations to support pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period. Thanks to its unique weave, it allows for gentle techniques of support, rocking and wrapping that support and relax the body.
The Rezobo technique supports the joints, back and pelvis while symbolising the end of pregnancy and the transition into motherhood with its energetic accompaniment.
The targeted enveloping of the body creates a sense of stability, security, and unity. The treatment can strengthen body awareness after pregnancy and childbirth, promoting awareness of one’s centre. In many traditional approaches, this ritual is seen as a way of consciously bringing the phase of physical opening during pregnancy and childbirth to a close.
This therapy is intended for new mothers in the days or weeks following childbirth, seeking relief from postnatal discomfort, a restored physical and energetic balance, and smoother adaptation to daily life.
The practitioner gently wraps and manipulates the pelvis and body using a Rebozo shawl, which allows the body to relax and reorganise itself. This treatment combines physical techniques with energetic care to support postnatal recovery and improve overall well-being. Each session lasts between 60 and 90 minutes.
