HOLA!
I’m Ivania. Bienvenida! I am a traditional birth worker, Licensed Massage Therapist, and Sobadora dedicated to preserving and sharing the sacred postpartum traditions of our ancestors. For over ten years, I have supported families throughout their pregnancies, births, and postpartum journey’s. I big focus has mostly been supporting BIPOC families through culturally rooted care centered on La Cuarentena and traditional Mesoamerican postpartum closing ceremonies.
In a time when many of our cultural practices are at risk of being forgotten, I am committed to helping our Latino and BIPOC communities reconnect with the wisdom that has nourished generations before us. Through education, ceremony, bodywork, and community care, I offer spaces for healing, remembrance, and empowerment.
Whether you are preparing for birth, navigating the postpartum journey, or seeking to deepen your understanding of traditional healing practices, I invite you to experience care that honors the body, spirit, family, and lineage.
Together, we preserve these traditions for ourselves, our communities, and future generations.
