PERINEAL HYDROTHERAPIST - YONI STEAM
Ancient Heart of Midwifery
The story of Feminae Essentia
It all started with a Christmas present…
Soley, my partner, handcrafted a seat so I could practice steam baths in my daily life. He designed it for me, to support my practice and take care of me.
When I discovered it, I was deeply moved. Then I tried it… and very quickly, this seat became much more than just an object.
He accompanied me through my cycle, in my life as a woman, during the birth of my son, and throughout my postnatal period, when Soley himself prepared my steam baths.
Steam baths have become for me a true space for reconnection: a time to return to my body, listen to my sensations, welcome my emotions and cultivate this intimate relationship with myself.
I have received so many gifts thanks to this practice.
This simple gesture ultimately sums up much of what this seat represents for us: a way of taking care of the feminine.
From my seat to your seat
Seeing the place this object had taken in my own life, one thing became clear: I wanted other women to also have access to this tool.
Today, Soley manufactures each seat itself, in the heart of the Cévennes, surrounded by nature, using three-ply wood and solar energy.
Each piece is created with care and intention.
Solid · Lightweight · Disassemblable · Durable · Handcrafted · Beautiful · Simple
We are constantly striving to improve its design, quality, and accessibility.
For us, it's not just a seat.
It is a ritual object, a companion in care, and a tool for self-reliance.
Then came the desire to pass it on
Through my practice and coaching, I have met many women and witnessed their journeys, their realizations and their transformations.
The more I taught, the more I felt the importance of raising awareness of these practices and the knowledge surrounding them.
This is how My Little Manual of the Yoni Steam came to be.
And around this book was born the Feminae Essentia association, with a broader intention: to keep alive and transmit ancestral knowledge about the feminine, the body, instinctive birth, plants and nature, so that each woman can find her own paths of care and autonomy.
A project born in the private sphere, which has become an adventure of transmission.
Good news! Following your numerous requests, a perineal hydrotherapy training course is being prepared and will be launched soon.

ABOUT
I'm Lucy! Mom passionate about exploring the world and the richness of its ancestral traditions. My quest for a life with nature, authenticity and autonomy led me to meet indigenous peoples and nomadic tribes who deeply touched me.
Life in the great outdoors reconnected me to my feminine essence and my intuition, drawing me towards ancestral care linked to women, traditional midwifery and instinctive birth.
Marked by profound and inspiring experiences, my adventure led me to give birth by myself, in the heart of the jungle, alongside my partner. It was completely incredible!!!
The transcendence I experienced allowed me to contact my own strength and inspired me to accompany other women in their quest for power.
Today, as a Holistic Doula, I support femininity throughout life.
