Through apprenticeship & experience
Our passion for steaming is rooted in the profound healing we’ve lived ourselves and witnessed in those we support.
We know this healing is here for you too.
Founder
Kit Maloney
"I founded Kitara because yoni steaming changed my life. Though I was initially skeptical, I now understand that the power of yoni steaming is as vast as it is deep and I believe it can change the world.
Through steaming, Kit's achieved regular, pain-free menstrual cycles, healthy pregnancies and postpartum recoveries in my forties, and, most profoundly, a deepening relationship with the wisdom of my womb. This practice is as vast as it is deep—and Kit truly believes it has the power to change the world.
