Rebozo Closing Ceremonies: Sacred Work Beyond the Lens

As part of my services, I offer Rebozo Ceremonies, also known as Closing of the Bones, Cerrada de Cadera, and Baño Postparto. And you may notice something if you explore my work online: you won’t find many photographs of these ceremonies.

That choice is intentional.

This work is sacred. It is not a marketing strategy.

Why I Don’t Share Ceremony Photos on Social Media

A Rebozo Ceremony is not a performance. It is a deeply intimate, soulful experience, one that deserves privacy, reverence, and presence.

During ceremony, my clients connect with their higher self. I connect with wisdom that overpasses my conscious brain. I could not hold this work any other way. Through each step, we honour your own beliefs and spiritual connection, as well as the person receiving this powerful care.

There is no room for cameras in that space. The memory of ceremony is not meant to live on a screen, it lives in the body, the breath, the spirit.

This is how this wisdom was passed down to me. We don’t take photos during ceremony.

Presence Over Performance

When I have attended ceremonies myself, I have felt completely one with the moment with no sense of time, no awareness of the outside world. There was no desire to document anything. The experience imprinted itself within me, where it belongs.

Because of this, I choose not to publicly share images of my clients in these moments. Not because the work isn’t beautiful, but because it is too sacred to be reduced to content.

Occasionally, I will take photos on a client’s phone, at their request. These images are for them, and them alone, private memories of their own journey.

Images Shared With Permission

On my website, you may find a few images of ceremonies. These were shared with explicit permission and loving intention. They were offered by clients who wished to help others understand what this work can look like, and I am deeply grateful for their trust.

If you feel called to learn more, I invite you to explore those glimpses, always knowing that the true essence of ceremony cannot be captured visually.

A Closing Reflection

Across cultures and traditions, there are ceremonies where photographs are not allowed, where presence is valued over documentation, and memory is held within the soul.

If you come from a culture that honours ceremony in this way, I would love to hear about it.

This work is sacred.

And it deserves to remain so.

Rebozo and Closing of the Bones ceremonies are offered with care, intention, and deep respect for your unique journey. If you feel a quiet yes in your body, I invite you to reach out.
