Womb Continuum Care
Slow, devotional hands-on care for the body, pelvis, and womb.
There are parts of the body we learn to live around.
A belly we hold.
A pelvis we brace.
A scar we stopped noticing.
A place that feels numb, tight, tender, unfamiliar, or simply disconnected from the rest of us.
Sometimes we know exactly why.
Sometimes we don't.
Womb Continuum Care is a hands-on practice where we slow down enough to listen and return often enough for the relationship to deepen.
Through skilled manual therapy, anatomical knowledge, and deeply present touch, we work with the abdomen, pelvis, uterus, and surrounding tissues—layer by layer, session by session.
This work is about meeting the body with attention, consistently enough that we can notice what changes, work with what emerges, and allow the body to become more familiar to you over time.
What a session feels like
Each session is slow.
We work with the body rather than rushing past it.
Through gentle, intentional touch and manual techniques, we may work with the abdomen, pelvis, scar tissue, fascia, and surrounding structures.
There isn't a predetermined sequence that every body needs.
We pay attention to what your body is communicating and allow the session to respond to what we find.
There is space to notice sensation.
To breathe.
To soften.
To become aware of what you may not have noticed before.
To simply receive.
This is physical work.
And over time, it can become a different kind of relationship with your body, one where you are met consistently, with care and intention.
This may be a beautiful fit if...
You want to feel more connected to your pelvis, abdomen, or womb.
You have areas of your body that feel unfamiliar, disconnected, tense, tender, or difficult to inhabit.
You've experienced surgery, injury, pregnancy, birth, or other significant physical experiences and want supportive hands-on care as you reconnect with your body.
You have scar tissue or areas of restriction you'd like to explore through manual work.
You're curious about your anatomy and want to experience your body rather than only think about it.
Or maybe nothing is particularly “wrong.”
You simply want to be cared for.
To slow down.
To have someone with deep anatomical knowledge meet your body with attention and respect.
This is deep, physiological Homecoming.
This work is centered around helping you inhabit your body with greater awareness, ease, and relationship.
You can arrive exactly as you are and let the work begin there

What can Womb Continuum Care support?
Womb Continuum Care is a deeply integrative form of manual therapy, and there are many reasons a woman may seek this work.
Sessions may be supportive for women navigating:
Fertility, preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum
Recovery following abdominal or pelvic surgery
Scar tissue and adhesions
Physical experiences of trauma or injury
Hysterectomy or oophorectomy recovery
Painful menstruation or irregular cycles
including experiences associated with PMOS/Endometriosis/Fibroids/Cysts/PolypsPelvic tension or tightness
Low back, tailbone, or pelvic discomfort
Digestive or abdominal tension and discomfort
Changes in libido or pelvic sensation
Painful intercourse or difficulty relaxing into pelvic touch
Numbness or changes in sensation
Pelvic organ support and awareness
Bladder or urethral concerns
Low libido and pelvic tension / tightness (e.g. vaginismus, vulvodynia, painful intercourse, numbness)
Prolapse and incontinence prevention and support
Retroverted uterus or other changes in pelvic positioning
A tucked or held pelvis
A desire to understand and reconnect with the physical anatomy of the pelvis and womb
It may also be appropriate simply because you want more intentional care for this part of your body.
Sometimes the reason is simply:
I want to know this part of myself better.
Because every body has a history.
And sometimes being met slowly, skillfully, and without rushing is part of what allows us to begin relating to that history differently.
Womb Continuum Care is manual bodywork and is not a substitute for medical diagnosis, treatment, or care. If you are experiencing symptoms or have a medical condition, please work with an appropriate healthcare provider alongside this work.

FAQs
-
I am a student of Ma School.
Womb Continuum Care is holistic womb care designed to support women from menarche to menopause and beyond.
This is for women, designed by women.
Womb Continuum Care combines traditional Mexican Abdominal therapy, Rolfing-inspired fascial work, Scar Tissue and adhesion work, Craniosacral therapy, and deep anatomical knowledge for a holistic, integrative approach to women’s care. -
Please come to your session with clean skin, free from any moisturizers, oils, or creams. Please note that this includes HRT if you are using it. Please do not use it transdermally before coming to the session.
Wear comfortable clothing.
Sessions require full presence, which means you must come to sessions fully sober from all substances, including alcohol, cannabis, and psychedelics.Before your initial session, you'll receive an intake form that takes approximately 20–30 minutes to complete.
Please complete your intake at least 24 hours before your appointment so I have time to review it and prepare for our work together.
Additional preparation information will be provided when you book.

Womb Continuum Care is work that deepens with consistency.
While a single session can be meaningful, I generally recommend beginning with a series of 4–6 sessions when you're wanting to work with something more deeply.
The body needs time to be met, responded to, and met again.
Each session gives us information about what has shifted, what is still asking for attention, and where we might go next. We're not trying to accomplish everything in one appointment.
Some women continue beyond their initial series, coming twice a month as an ongoing practice of tending to and staying connected with their bodies.
There is no finish line you have to reach.
The point is not to keep finding things that are wrong.
It's to create a consistent relationship with your body where you can notice, respond, and allow change to happen over time.
All sessions are 2 hours. This allows us to take time with your body in each session, to drop in deeply and work with your tissues at a slow, devotional pace.
The initial session allows for extra conversation to cover your intake, assessment, and a fuller introduction to the work. -
No, one of the purposes of this work is to shift the uterus back into alignment. This can shift an IUD, which we do not want to happen.
-
For the first trimester of pregnancy, let your body rest and grow. From the second trimester on, you can receive care.
Post birth, you can receive care as soon as you’re ready after a vaginal birth; wait 10-12 weeks or until the incision is healed if you have a C-section.
If you desire immediate postpartum care support, please reach out and inquire about my postpartum care packages.

Womb care testimonials:

Hi Shannon, our whole session felt like a deep sigh of relief. I realized, how much tension I kept just to support the body in bad posture. And after session I noticed that I don't need anymore to sit and stay with curved back. And, surprisingly, my body was able to adjust and keep healthy position. And your presence in each and every minute of the session was so supportive to me. Thank you so much 🧡

Working with Shannon was truly such a joy. The tender parts, the intense sensations, the spectrum of emotion, the vulnerability, she held it all with so much warmth, curiosity, and openness. My body could then relax into that safety which only deepened the impact of the work. My pelvis feels so much more open and alive, with a much greater capacity for sensation and change.

I recently had a Womb Continuum session with Shannon and it was an absolutely transformative experience. From the moment the session began, I felt completely safe and held in her care. Shannon’s intuitive and skilled touch made a profound difference in my abdominal and pelvic area. Having previously undergone laparoscopic surgery, I had significant scar tissue and adhesions in my abdomen. Shannon’s deep, precise work helped release these adhesions and my belly felt much softer and more comfortable. I could actually feel my body shifting and relaxing during the session and she gently brought my intestines back to the midline, which had shifted to the right side, making a huge difference in my digestion. I am deeply grateful to Shannon for her expertise, care and the nurturing presence she brought to my session.
