ONLINE CLASS: Roots that Run Deep: Herbal Support for Pelvic Pain, Dysfunctions & Pleasure with Alex

  • PO BOX 15 McArthur, Ohio, 45651 (map)

The pelvic bowl is more than anatomy — it is the root of our vitality, power, and creative life force. Yet for so many, this space holds stories of pain, trauma, disconnection, or silence.

In this class, we’ll explore herbal allies that support the complex and tender terrain of the pelvic floor — from chronic pain and scar tissue, to prolapse, and sexual disconnection. You'll learn how plants can ease inflammation, regulate hormones, soothe the nervous system, and help us return home to pleasure and trust in our bodies.

We’ll cover teas, tinctures, and vaginal suppositories, drawing on clinical insight. This class weaves together physiology, herbal energetics, trauma-informed care, and plant-based pathways toward reconnection and healing.

This class is open to all genders and bodies navigating pelvic health challenges or simply longing to deepen their relationship to their root.
