Safety & Comfort Guide
Please read this before your first steam. A few minutes here keeps your ritual gentle and safe.
Please do NOT steam if you:
- Are pregnant, think you might be pregnant, or are trying to conceive in the second half of your cycle
- Have an IUD or other intrauterine device
- Are menstruating with heavy flow (wait until it's light or finished)
- Have an active infection, unusual discharge, irritation, itching, or any open sores or cuts
- Have a vaginal piercing (remove it first)
- Have any condition your doctor has told you to keep cool, or that you're unsure about
Steam gently
- Keep sessions to about 10–20 minutes. Longer is not better.
- Keep a comfortable distance from the steam. You should feel soft warmth, not intensity.
- Steam occasionally, not daily. Let your body guide the rhythm.
- Stop immediately if you feel any burning, stinging, dizziness, or discomfort.
Handle hot water carefully
- The copper pot and water are hot — carry and place them carefully, and keep them away from children and pets.
- Set everything on a stable, level surface so nothing can tip.
- Make sure your steam seat is steady before you sit.
About the herbs
Our blends are made from naturally dried, food- and skin-friendly herbs chosen for their gentleness and aroma. They are intended for relaxation and self-care. If you have allergies, are sensitive to any plant, or have any doubt, patch-test the steam on your inner forearm first, and check with your healthcare provider.
When in doubt, ask a professional
Vaginal steaming is a traditional wellness ritual, not a medical treatment, and it is not a substitute for medical care. If you have any symptom, condition, or concern — or you're simply not sure whether steaming is right for you — please talk with a qualified healthcare provider before you begin.
