Vaginal Steam Intake Form

There are times when it is not beneficial for a woman to steam. First, let's check and make sure that you don't have any contraindications.

Check all that apply:

Sensitivities

Some women are very responsive to steam and it can cause a physiological response. If you are in this category then it is okay to steam, however, your practitioner will adjust your steam session and herbs so that it perfectly suits you.

Warning

The above "yes" replies indicate sensitivity in which case a mild setup without a burner should be used. Under no circumstances should clients who have sensitivity use an advanced setup with a burner.

Herb Selection

It is best to select herbs suitable to your constitution. Your practitioner will use the info from this intake form to select a suitable vaginal steam formula for you.

If the client has indicators for herbs in different categories always prioritize the mild herbs. If the mild is not indicated then proceed with the best choice for the situation.

Cloaking

When steaming it is often commonplace to cloak. In certain customs, a nice breathable fabric cloak is used. This cloak is safe in all situations. In other traditions, a plastic cloak is used to increase sweating and circulation and to enhance the detoxification benefits of the steam session. In this instance, plastic cloaking is not suitable if the client has excess heat in the body.

Let's check for excess heat.

Waiver

Most of the side-effects reported while steaming are positive. Users have reported better sleep, decreased swelling in legs and feet, decreased abdominal bloating, slimmer waistline, increased libido, decrease in breast soreness, fewer headaches, fewer PMS symptoms, increased energy, lucid dreams, tingling feet, glowing skin, reduction in the incidence of hormonal acne and increased lubrication.

However, some undesirable side effects might also occur. These include shortened menstrual cycles, the onset of bleeding, headaches, the sensation to urinate or an infection outbreak. In 99% of all cases using a mild steam session and mild herbs will prevent the above from happening so it's very important that you give honest answers in this intake form so that the practitioner can set up a steam session that will fit your needs.

I understand that V-Steaming may have positive or negative side effects as a result of doing a vaginal steam session. I accept legal responsibility for my choice to do a vaginal steam session and waive the responsibility of the practitioner and the facility where the steam session in the place that the named side effects (or others) may occur.
