EP5: Keli Garza, aka Steamy Chick, on Vagina Steaming and Radical Women's Health Care

This podcast is a steamy one. I met Keli at a vagina steaming workshop and was immediately captivated by her wealth of knowledge, background in quantitative analysis, and grassroots approach to women's health. This podcast is all about vagina steaming, and how it can treat almost every gynecological issue. I know the term "vagina steaming" is not a term many have heard so we will discuss here what it is, how it works, what "the perfect period" actually looks like and my own personal success story with steaming.  About Keli Garza: Keli, aka Steamy Chick, holds a Masters degree in International Development graduating cum laude. A social science researcher by academic training, Keli has spent the past several years doing women's health research and has founded a new field of discipline called Peristeam Hydrotherapy.
