Service Description

The Closing of The Bones is an ancient healing ritual practised in cultures around the world, particularly in Latin America and Morocco. This ceremony focuses on the physical, emotional, and spiritual closure of a mother’s body after childbirth. During pregnancy and birth, a woman’s pelvis and bones widen and expand, both physically and energetically, to accommodate the baby’s passage. The Closing of The Bones ritual is designed to ‘close’ this space—honouring the mother’s journey into motherhood while supporting her recovery. Traditionally, the ceremony involves the use of a woven cloth or rebozo to gently wrap and ‘close’ different parts of the mother’s body, from her head down to her feet. This process helps to restore balance, provide emotional support, and encourage the body’s natural healing process.
