Closing of the Bones Ceremony: A Sacred Ritual for Postpartum Healing and Rebirth

 

Closing of The Bones Ceremony - $250

Closing of the Bones is a traditional postpartum healing ritual rooted in Mexican and South American cultures, designed to honor a woman’s journey through birth and motherhood. This deeply nurturing ceremony offers physical, emotional, and energetic closure following pregnancy, birth, loss, or major life transitions. At The Milk & Honey Co., we offer authentic Closing of the Bones ceremonies in a safe, sacred space using Rebozo wrapping, guided touch, herbal oils, and intentional ritual to help you feel seen, supported, and whole.

What’s Involved With The Milk & Honey Co. Closing the Bones

The ceremony helps “close” and restore the body its integrity bringing warmth and stability to the bones, especially to the hips and realigns the pelvic area and encourage correct healing. The cloths are used to massage and “close’ the body often focusing on the pelvis, abdomen and joints, that were loosened during childbirth. The ceremony is often performed two to six weeks, post-partum but can also be done after that time.
