Sacred body work for women

03/16/2026

Hello beautiful ones — it’s been a while since I’ve shared about this space and myself so-

I’m Delphi 🌿

Devoted wife & mother, folk herbalist, and holistic bodyworker devoted to women’s wellness.

My path began when I crossed the threshold into motherhood in 2007. That experience awakened a deep calling to support women through the sacred seasons of their bodies — pregnancy, postpartum, cyclical health, and the transition into wise woman years.

Over the years my work has woven together many threads: birth work, herbalism, Maya abdominal therapy, breast massage, fertility awareness, and traditional bodywork. My sessions are deeply nourishing spaces where women can reconnect with their wombs, cycles, and inner wisdom.

I live with my family on an off-grid homestead in the mountains of Western North Carolina where I spend my days homeschooling, making herbal medicines, wild-harvesting plants, and tending to the rhythms of a simple Appalachian life.

Thank you for being here and walking this path with me.🌙✨

Castor oil packs are one of the simplest ancestral remedies I return to again and again for women’s wellness. 🌿

When warm castor oil is placed over the abdomen and womb space, it gently penetrates deep into the tissues—stimulating circulation, supporting detoxification, and nourishing the organs that guide our hormonal rhythms.

One of the beautiful things about castor oil is its ability to support the lymphatic system. The lymph is the body’s cleansing river, moving waste, hormones, and immune cells through the body. Castor oil packs have traditionally been used to encourage lymphatic flow and may support the production and activity of lymphocytes—the immune cells that help our bodies protect and restore themselves.

For women, this gentle therapy can support:

✨ hormonal balance
✨ liver health (where hormones are metabolized)
✨ lymphatic drainage and immune vitality
✨ reduced pelvic congestion and inflammation
✨ deeper relaxation and connection with the womb space

I often recommend castor oil packs for women navigating:
• painful cycles
• hormonal transitions
• postpartum healing
• perimenopause & menopause
• digestive or pelvic stagnation

Beyond the physical benefits, there is something deeply soothing about placing warm oil over the belly and allowing the body to soften. It’s a ritual of care… a way of telling the womb and nervous system that it is safe to rest.

If you’re curious about weaving castor oil packs into your home care rituals—or receiving womb-centered bodywork that incorporates these traditions—I’d love to support you.

Your body holds deep wisdom. Sometimes it simply needs warmth, stillness, and nourishment to remember. 🤍

Just landed home after an epic two-week adventure south with my family — weaving time between wild water springs and the powerful prayers of the Florida Moon Dance. 🌙💧

My heart feels so full of gratitude for the waters, the land, and the lineage of women who continue to pray for the well-being of our families and future generations.

Now I’m heading straight into a retreat to deepen my studies in supporting women through the sacred threshold of perimenopause and menopause — a time that deserves far more reverence, nourishment, and wise tending than our culture often offers.

This new offering, Wise Woman Menopause Massage, will weave together the bodywork many of you already know and love — abdominal therapy, breast massage, herbal oils, and restorative touch — with deeper support for the hormonal, emotional, and energetic shifts of this life season.

Our bodies were never meant to navigate these passages alone.

✨ To celebrate returning home and beginning this next layer of study, I’m offering:

An additional 20 minutes of bodywork with every session booked this month.

If your body has been asking for deeper care, this is a beautiful time to come in.

Come be tended.
Come rest.
Come remember the wisdom of your body.

Many women carry tension, grief, or disconnection in the womb and belly.

These places hold our stories.

My work is simply to create a space where the body can soften, be listened to, and return to its natural rhythm.

The women who find me, nestled in the forest, all say the same thing- the drive and the setting are all part of the medicine.

Sessions take place on my off grid home site in an eco village setting and are deeply restorative to the nervous system.

Offering a blend of Maya Abdominal Therapy, Traditional Uterine Massage, Holistic pelvic energy work & holistic breast care ✨

The breasts and the womb are deeply connected—through hormones, lymph, emotion, and the heart.

When the breasts hold stagnation or grief, the whole system feels it.
When they are supported to drain and soften, many women report:
• relief from tenderness or congestion
• emotional release
• improved cycle awareness
• a deeper sense of self-nourishment

Breast massage is not cosmetic.
It is ancestral care.
It is about honoring the body as a living, communicating system.

Many women seek my work not because something is “wrong,”but because something inside them is asking to be listened to.

The womb is not just a physical space.
It holds memories, creativity, grief, pleasure, and wisdom.

Maya abdominal therapy gently brings circulation, warmth, and awareness back to this center—supporting digestion, menstrual health, fertility, emotional release, and a deeper sense of embodiment.

This work is an invitation to come home to yourself.

Slowly. Safely. With reverence.

A rare invitation.

I’m opening a small number of 2-session bodywork journeys for women who know that deep work happens in layers.

✨ Two 2-hour sessions
✨ Held with intention & presence
✨ Designed to unwind the womb, belly, pelvis, hips and nervous system
✨ Deep nourishment through herbal body oils & self care tools
✨ Supportive for women’s reproductive health in their phases and stages

This is for the woman who doesn’t want a one-off session,
but a relationship with her healing.

DM me “WOMB” to claim one of the available spots 🤍

We spent several magical days at last week, camping, playing games and making new friends, but the best part of all was that we had some much needed quality time together 💛

I love these gatherings because afterwards I feel so inspired and resourceful- here are just a few things that we were able to experience together

🪨 painting tee shirts with rock pigments
🥄spoon carving
🏺open fire pottery making
🐿️ animal butchering and smoking (my son)
🪢knot tying
🌿plant distillation- made a pine needle hydrosol

And just all around sweet village vibes

My heart is feeling full and grateful 🍂

Lots of morning walks are happening these days

🍁 with the change of season I feel myself coming into the rhythms of homeschooling and I love how rhythm brings discipline to my life

I’m also grateful to have more time in my days, while my children are engaged in various activities in the village, to offer the type of bodywork that I love- which focuses on the female body.

One of my greatest joys is offering breast massage to women who have had reductions & explant surgery or mastectomies.

This work is so therapeutic for supporting scar tissues healing, moving lymph and reducing pain and swelling.

But really, we can all benefit from therapeutic breast massage!

🍒 have you ever had breast massage? If so- what did you think?

🌷life has been beautiful as spring peeks her head up here in Appalachia.

We’re in a sweet and steady homeschooling & homesteading rhythm and I couldn’t be more grateful for everything that’s being planted and blooming simultaneously

And we got 3 baby ducks 🐣

How are you enjoying spring?

hi friends- it’s been a while since I’ve been consistent on this platform so i wanted to share an update 🌷

In September 2023 we moved into our beautiful yurt that my talented husband built 🛖 having our first home created a major cellular shift for our family-

putting roots down even deeper was a catalyst for us to center our children’s education at home and the healing work that i had been offering to women was moved to the back burner as we navigated homeschooling and living off grid in community.

Now that we’ve found our flow I am so ready to share my offerings with women again!

The sessions I offer blend years of studies in Maya abdominal therapy, traditional uterine massage & holistic pelvic care to create a deeply nurturing and restorative session that spans more than just the abdomen, by relaxing tension in the back, hips, gluten & legs before working in the womb space.

In times not so long ago, wise women from across the globe knew the importance and benefits of traditional therapies to support women’s reproductive health and general wellness throughout all of their phases, not just when they’re fertile.

These external, non-invasive techniques work by alleviating organ and tissue congestion and improving the vital flow of blood, hormones, lymph and energy. This assists the bodies natural healing capabilities, restoring harmony and balance.

This modality can offer:
🪷support with balancing hormones
🪷relief from painful menstrual cycles
🪷better digestive health
🪷an increase of fertility
🪷postpartum healing
🪷restored vitality and creativity

🌹 I’m offering a limited amount of sessions on my homesite as well as lining up some guest healing sessions at other awesome locations that I vibe with- but for now you can book with me at Earthaven through the l i n k in b i o 🍄🤍🍓
