How to Safely Practice Yoni Steaming

To ensure the best experience, follow these safety guidelines:

Check the temperature – The steam should be warm, not too hot, to prevent burns.

Avoid steaming during menstruation – Steaming during active bleeding may cause excessive blood flow.

Limit steaming sessions – 20-30 minutes is ideal, 1-3 times a month, depending on personal needs.

Consult your doctor – If you have infections, an IUD, or specific health concerns, seek professional advice before steaming.
