What do they think of my work :) 

My experience with Arvigo self care massage : I do it every morning . Laying in the bed give time to my self with love. This massage give mi pleasure, my body come to life, the cells are happy. I feel how the space in side my lower abdominal get bigger and the interior organs are happy and thanks me and i thank them for taking care of me. Time of gratitude and reconnect to my reproductive system. A beautiful gift to start the day that affect in a positive way the whole day. Personally its really help me to strength the bladder, to control more my urine. Thanks to Arvigo.
Z.S.

"I most likely have endometriosis and was googling for natural approaches to manage my pain and reconnect with my body when I ended up on the Arvigo website. I didn’t know anything about this technique, but I felt that I need to be there so I enrolled in the course.
It was a wonderful weekend.  
After my last gynecologist appointment I was full of doubt and worry, but after the first day of the course, my mind was finally at ease. I learned a lot about my body, did relaxations, connected with my belly and with the lovely ladies and learned the abdominal therapy that I do each day ever since.
Since the group wasn’t that big Gloria was able to answer all our questions and she was able to tailor the course according to our interest. Each of us received a half an hour massage from her. It was powerful, moved me emotionally, no words to express it, it was just amazing and Gloria is full of love and positive energies. 
I am ever so grateful for all of it!"

I went on the Arvigo self care training weekend on 27th October 2017.
It was one of the best decisions I have made! I had had a number of Arvigo treatments from the lovely Gloria, which had helped me a lot. However I first started seeing her for treatments during a very stressful, "crisis" time in my life. Whilst the treatments were very nurturing and helpful, i wasn't yet ready to take on the daily self care and understand the philosophy and anatomy more. 
On the weekend workshop it really felt like a retreat! It reminded me so much of homebirth midwifery trainings i had done in Northern California. Due to the ancient and spiritual wisdom being taught to us in a very kind and relaxed way, based in the actual anatomy.  
I felt joyous, alive and so grateful. I felt open to receive the whole experience. It's at times also challenging as involves emotional releases and revealations and learning a lot. Also involves supporting the other women on the course and really feeling connected with the other women and Gloria. I feel like I have found part or my calling and Arvigo fits perfectly in with my other passions of midwifery and becoming a mother.
I highly recommend this course to anyone and everyone. I felt supported and nourished by the Universe and Gloria facilitated that and taught us the material beautifully and with passion and inspiration! Thank you!! 💕💕 H.E.


I just wanted to say that I am so truely happy that I met you. I dont know know what it is you did with be, but since tuesday people say to me that  I look like I have lost a heavy burden. I still feel other peoples emotions, but i can handle them or leave them there. I feel more free. I experience less stress. 
Y.L.

Somehow it feels like an energy in me has turned. I think you did this through the massages. I cannot thank you enough. I finally have found some piece in myself. I feel normal again. My brain works normal. My senses work almost normal.
Since our last session, so many things have happened that I can hardly comprehend. 
The most important to mention, hence my email, is that I got pregnant 10 weeks ago. And I dearly believe your therapy helped to prepare my body to accept the gift of life when ... and I were ready. 
In fact, we were both almost shocked that it worked the first time we even tried after doctors telling me for over 10 years I will not be able to conceive naturally. 
I wanted to share this with you to prove once again that Arvigo rocks and that you are making this world a better place.

My daughter  and I came across Arvigo during her last stay in Holland and we were instantly drawn to it. We read what we could, watched what we could and it really felt like it was for us. Reggie looking into shamanism and I interested in the well-being of women in general. Wondering if we would be so lucky to find anyone in our tiny country that would do this, we found Gloria. We called her and both went for abdominal massage four times. We were so excited and more than that it felt like coming home. I loved the way Gloria explained how the organs and skeletal structure worked in the abdomen, she really took her time. Not only for the explanation in our first meeting but also - with a nice cup of tea - before and after every massage. She has the amazing talent for creating a very trusting and relaxing atmosphere without ever judging anything she comes across. She is a good listener and a very warmhearted person. It is very easy to instantly love her for who she is. Being a highly sensitive person I usually do not like massages because I am then left with the other person's energy. But not at all so with Gloria. The prayer she does in Italian at the beginning of every session creates a beautiful high vibration always kept up by her intention and the music she chooses. The beauty about Arvigo is that you go home after the first session knowing what to do yourself. So there is no dependency created with the massage therapist. To get to know your body in a new way is beautiful and I wish this for every woman that I know. In fact I have recommended Gloria to many of my friends, some went, for some the seed was planted.....besides the fact that she is a complete natural at healing and teaching....we need the Arvigo in this part of the world where woman have been taught not to pay any attention to their womb and ovaries and touch is associated with sexuality. ...this ancient Mayan technique seems the perfect one for bringing out the Divine Feminine in all women. Much Love to you Gloria ....I have no doubt you will bring a lot to us women!

Dear Gloria, 
Thank you for the extra info! I am really enjoying working with you too and I am quite taken by the process and the way you are working with this method. You are as down to earth as you are spiritual and I love that. The arvigo treatment is the same way as well it seems to me, down to earth and open for the more at the same time!  😀 
Again, after the last treatment...."magic"! My whole lower body feels "right" somehow. Its very hard to describe. I feel more space, less tension, its all very subtle. As if before some flow around my pelvic area was impeded more than I realized and now it's more as it always should have been. A returning to a memory of my body as it should be, but now not a memory anymore...whaha, vague I know. Anyways, its very hard to describe it in words, because it is a sensation. 😉
Kim

Hi Gloria,
First of all, I hope you are well and I am really excited for our next massage session...I am really enjoying the self-care massage, I do it once a day, sometimes with oil, sometimes without, sometimes with clothes, sometimes without, sometimes standing other times lying down sometimes with more another times with less and light pressure.  All of them feel good so I just am varying depending upon my mood an the time I have.  I have so far been doing this once a day !
Doris

Dear Gloria,
During my drive back home feelings of loss and mourning arose. Something got loosened for sure. Anger first for never having been taught what you showed me and there was feelings of mourning arising for something lost. So much time I spend running around without fully understanding my own body. So much time spend with physicians hoping for answers. Something lost that was lost for all women even before I was born, but as you said the "witches" have reincarnated now and this feels like magic to me. It gives hope. I was crying a lot, still crying for all the (self) judgments and lack of love and wisdom for out bodies and each other, but it is good. I am happy that I have met you. I can feel your mission, your power and I long for it, this reconnecting of women to our bodies, to take responsibility and to share. I am happy that I am on this path now, returning to my belly. And here I was just thinking I was giving myself a nice present, just simply a nice and useful massage. 😊 Now I understand it's so much more and it goes deeper. What you are sharing, giving and teaching goes deeper. 
My body. a place where before I did not even realize how much tension there was. I knew it a little because there is much struggle within me, but now it is releasing and I am starting to return to some place that I had been forgotten.
Thank you so much.Take care and much love,
Kim

Dear Gloria,
I just want to THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH for the wonderful massage you gave me.
Stepping out of your door I felt happy, energized and 20 cm taller :)

Gloria is a hidden gem for every woman that has not been in touch yet with the Arvigo Technique of Maya abdominal Therapy. A session with her is such a wonderful gift for yourself. She skillfully brings you back into your body, right down to your creative center of feminine power. Relaxing, soothing and strengthening. Gloria is warm, welcoming and wise. Next to the abdominal therapy, she has this holistic toolkit of personal and professional resources, from which she always manages to pick exactly the right gift for me in that moment. Thank you, Gloria! 
Miranda


A treatment with Gloria is like stepping into a warm bath where you are surrounded with loving care and warmth. She creates a space where you can be yourself and re-connect with your femininity again - in a safe and loving way. Recommended to all women! Grazie bella x

Dear Gloria,
I’m so grateful to meet you and feel blessed for what you are offering me and every women.

Only want to shortly share that I felt very peaceful and grounded after yesterday treatment - not many thoughts to explain or understand, just breathing, just being!

Also in the evening, while making chi kung exercises, I realized that my pelvis was flexible and stable. My energy flowed very easy and there was this incredible warmth in my belly, lower back, heart and hands.

So, lot’s of vitality and possibilities.

Makes me think how good it is to combine both practices…
With love and gratefulness,
Raquel 

Some years ago, in fact many years ago, I found out I had fibroids growing in the wall of my uterus. Being in the Netherlands where people including doctors can be blunt the avenue that was offered to me at first was to get a hysterectomy. Now there is nothing wrong with a hysterectomy when it is needed, but there are ways to tell a woman in her mid-30’s without children. Moreover, it bothered me that not alternatives were given.

My life moved on, I didn’t really have a great deal of problems due to the fibroids so I chose to live with them and continued to see my acupuncturist and homeopath. In my early 40’s however, some side effects started to pop up; very heavy menses and the need to go to the ladies room often. My relationship with my uterus and cycle got confused; I no longer embraced it as I had in the past. I felt ‘heavy’ in the belly.

I continued my alternative therapies but also went to a new gynecologist who showed some humanity. Even though I was in my early 40’s she understood I was emotionally still very connected to my uterus. And she offered me different solutions.

Right around this time I met Gloria and we started  Arvigo Technique therapy. We went on a little journey together, Gloria doing her amazing work whilst I was getting reconnected with my cycle and most importantly deeply connected to my uterus.  This allowed me to release energy that was stuck in the uterus.

Like a good student I also did a great deal of self-care at home, castor oil packs and saw a therapist to further release the emotions contained in the fibroids.

Since all this, I have been operated on, with a big vertical incision from belly botton to pubic bone and the fibroids have been removed. The doctors and nurses were to a certain extend surprised at my speedy recovery to date. They also were surprised at how little pain I have felt.

I think I know the secret though: ‘I was ready for the surgery’.
It has been a journey, and I am still on it. I plan to resume my sessions with Gloria once the wound has healed and continue to explore the deep connection I have developed with my uterus, as I am convinced this is key for my recovery and keeping myself tip top.

I visited Gloria because I was curious to find out about ATMAT. I did not have any direct problems that I wanted to discuss but during the intake I mentioned that since the birth of my second child I have had quite some pain and trouble going to the toilet during my period. As I had previously asked my gp about this and her reply was that there was nothing there could be done about it, I thought I just had to live with it. After 3 treatments from Gloria and applying the selfcare she taught me, I can say that I have just had my last period and it was painfree. WOW! I am astonished!
Saskia de Munnik

Dear Gloria, your massage worked our very well, I had no back pain driving back home, while I did have pain when I came. And at night I felt warmte streaming all over my body, wonderful session again you gave me! Thank you so much again xx

Dear Gloria,
I  Really want to thank you for the Maya Abdominal Therapy I received from you.
I myself practice and teach Reiki, I know the power of energy.
 I just went out of curiosity, no clue what to expect.
 My daughter had experiences with your treatment, but she had real physical problems.
So after you explained the therapy I went on the table and after this (in my eyes gentle but nice massage) i thought to expect nothing.
We found out that my solar plexus was hard, I knew there was something there, but could not see a link.
But after a small conversation I was full in tears!
Where did that come from? 
Well It all came very clear to me and after doing massage at home and two other sessions the
solar plexus softened.
You picked it up and just used the right words that triggered me.
I think I cleared up a lot of old grief.
It is amazing to find out that the body, especially the pelvis stores so much information.
And it is great, that by massaging the pelvis front and back blockades get lifted in your mind as well in the body.
For me it is big step up in my development and understanding of my being.
Thank you very much Gloria, I wish you a great carrier and true happiness in your life.
With gratitude, Lida Hoekstra.

My experience with Gloria was one of peace and contentment. I went to her for Mayan Belly massage as I have heard about it for years from my sister in The States. I was thrilled to find Gloria,  the one and only practitioner in Holland! It is a very gentle massage technique that allows one to really focus on the belly and give it the attention that is often neglected. Her soft hands, gentle voice and serene massage room all combined to create a really healing , safe, warm, loving environment. After giving birth many years ago to two large babies, it felt really good to get confirmation from Gloria that everything felt fine and aligned inside my womb. Sometimes it's nice to receive outside confirmation that everything on the inside is healthy and in order! And I trust her opinion as she is so experienced and familiar with the female body, she would know if something needed attention. So thank you Gloria for the subtle gift you gave me of inner peace!

With gratitude and loveHi Gloria,
Thank you for the excellent treatment!
Feels like a renewal of the whole body-mind connection (wrong words, as there is no seperation . .).
Radboud

WOW WOW WOW!!! Good afternoon all!
I'm just back from my first session at Gloria for my stomach and abdominal problems, in a very pleasant way. She comes from Italy and is the neighbor recently by my son. On the advice of my son I had the intake session last week and today the 1st treatment.
This includes:-first from feet to shoulders a whole box around my back with a soft gentle massage oil.
-a soft massage to my breasts in front of feet-then the massage of my stomach: everything was in a very gentle way and my stomach did a great deal of pain in the beginning, but got better as they get longer massaged.
-After that I got a warm oliepacking on my stomach with a hot water bag collector.
-10 minutes rest/meditate.
Everything was so relaxed, all towels were very pleasantly warm, the ambience was very soothing.
She is the only one in the Netherlands that this diploma and apply it.
I was super relaxed afterwards.
Also, should I belly massage daily home run, and about 2 weeks the next session.
Am confident! If only that it has given me a very pleasant feeling and I am now very relaxed and relaxing. My day started very well.
Carla

I received my second treatment from Gloria today. Her gentle, strong hands and professional and connected approach make her sessions so relaxing and healing.
Jennifer Walker

Hi Gloria,
Compliments for your treatment.
My sleep was much deeper, with lots of dreaming. My whole body, all the muscles feel as if I have done a very long walk, but the body is relaxed. The bowels are quiet and calm. The mind is stable and clear. No sign at all anymore of the hayfever.
Regards,
Radboud

Dear Gloria, I want to thank you for the nice treatment you gave me. The way our roads crossed was special! I'm thankfull for your experience and wisdom! 
The treatment was relaxing and felt very natural. I'm also very glad that you showed me how to do the maya massage myself. And it's not a lie when I say that you are the only one in Holland that can give this type of treatment! So I believe that you are going to play a special roll in introducing this in Holland and in your land of birth Italy. Your up for the challange!
Thank you! I'll be back (-:
Love,
Baukje

Gloria, with your help, I have been able to enlighten some unconscious part where some frozen emotions lay and than I could bring more awareness in my life. Thank you with al my life for the love and the effort you dedicated to me. 
With all my heart

Hello beautiful souls, I took a few days before writing because the emotions were so strong and lives by not being able to translate them into words ..... I received so much love and healing emotional wounds of the past few years, I rediscovered the pleasure to take care of and want to do it with other women. I arrived at the workshop following a voice of the heart, I trusted in spite of some difficulties and like magic I found them so many sisters and three wonderful women as spirit guides, I found the road that leads me back to the house of the soul. 
  I want to be with you again and continue this great course, all of us back to our center. 
Thanks Gloria for having organized this event and made ​​it possible here in Italy and for making it possible to understand English. 
Fiona Thanks for the wonderful massage, my body has awakened 
Louise Thanks for your words, your energy was as known you forever
with love
Luana

Your hands are wisely moving on my belly, I let go, I let you drive me somewhere else.
Your fingers become lines, lines of Love that paint  paths that untangle my webs, they melt the clouds.
The ancient movement, now awaken, restart the chant: a sense of expansion, of and full emptiness, I am overwhelmed.
I get up from the massage table, I don't want to, I would like to stay there, a little more…. a little more.
I put my clothes on, with the joy of a kid, I realize that my womb doesn't have edges anymore: everything is open, everything is connected. I hug you and think with every cell of my body, that I have a sky now in my abdomen.
Thank you
Laura (after a massage session with Gloria).

Happy friday to all, teachers and colleagues, 
The weekend is starting and it is finally time to stay… to be… to go back and feel… with calm, attention and respect to what it is.
The spiritual path, more than the 'technical' one, of these 4 days has been really deep and I could feel it during this week that is almost finished. 
The enrollment to this workshop had been mystical, I was not looking for it… I was looking for some other deepening for my profession and out of the blue I received an email from a friend and I felt it was for me, without even knowing what it really was… and than… it was exactly what I needed, not for my profession but for me.
My preyers of letting go all of the past have been answered from the Maya… what a powerful journey… the universe is unique and the forces are all connected…
Thank you everybody.
Laura L.

Hello everybody!
(According to Alexander Pope) Now that my winter is over, and spring is here, I'm out of my shell, my eyes are open and my energy is at its peak! Time for some planning and getting work done :D
Everyone, italian speakers or not, has made this an awesome journey for me. And of course my special thanks to the 3 wonderful trainers Louise, Fiona & Gloria (despite my emotional outburst)! This may be an understatement but you guys have inspired me farther than you can imagine.
I am at what I describe as "high excitable state" where ideas are bursting out of my head and things are manifesting itself at an astronomical rate where everything just aligns itself and wonderful things are happening.
With Love & Light, 
Salwa  

Events Organization and Translation

Giuditta Tornetta (Joy in Birthing)

Gloria is a gem, I met her by chance on facebook and from that moment on we became friends.  Her industry, impeccability, and big heart allowed our relationship to deepen very quickly.  We moved from friends to colleagues when I invited her to teach with me and Robin Lim Loving the Mother a transformational workshop for birth keepers and light workers. She rose to the occasion with ease and grace and led powerful session. She is also an incredible producer of events and is precise and organized she is a gift and I am privileged to call her my soul sister.

Debra Pascali-Bonaro (DONA International)

Gloria Gagliardo's warmth, wisdom and presence brings many added benefits to her translation services.  Gloria's eye for detail in the written word, as well as her ability to follow every subtle intonation, provides an engaging translation to any audience.  It was a pleasure to work with Gloria to bring two of my workshops to Italy, Pleasurable Birth and the first DONA International Birth Doula Workshop.  Gloria's translation skill was enjoyed and appreciated by all!

Nicola Goodall (Doule UK)

at the end of the summer 2012 i had the privilege of being invited to spend the day with some of italys strongest and most inspirational women – the birth keepers.  the day was long and tiring but invigorating and moving and gloria translated for me all day long.  i have no italian at all and was totally reliant on her to keep me plugged in.  she not only allowed me to understand the speech but the energy and emotion behind it and share what i wanted to convey so well too – by the end of the day we were almost communicating as one person with little effort.  gloria is incredibly skilled to enable this process of communication to flow so effortlessly and it was an honour to work alongside her.

Louise Crockart (ATMAT) 

Gloria is incredibly intuitive and works with a lovely sensitive approach. Having worked with her while teaching a Self Care course. I observed her supporting her fellow students, facilitating their needs and creating a wonderful healing environment. She acted as interpreter as well as organising, advertising and promoting the course in Italy. Gloria is a one woman dynamo.

Hi,
I am the mother of a 5 months old girl. Alessandra arrived when I didn't expect her anymore and my life took another direction. When I discovered I was pregnant it was a shock. I was really not prepared especially on the practical point of view: what to put in her room, what to do for breast feeding and beyond. Once Alessandra was born, I found myself, like all the newborn mothers, lacking of sleep and to get up in the morning really exhausted. To have someone that can 'take your hand' and come with you into the next phase had been really important for me, particularly when my husband went back to work. The mere fact that I could have the help of a trusty person, for some hours a day, had been really psychologically important to me. Having a counselor/doula as Gloria has been very helpful, she infused me strength and serenity because I knew I could called her whenever I needed her help or advice. Gloria also came with me to the first checks. What can I say? I didn't have my family around but I could have Gloria to help me!!!
Stefania

When we were about to be born as parents, we realized that we wanted to have a conscious parenthood path; Gloria helped us to enlighten our desires and our fears, we could talk about our values that will guide us into our experience with our daughter Chiara. We really appreciated Gloria's method because she kept on stimulating us without structured laws, she let our answers come out from within instead of giving us methodical preaches. 
Massimo & Elena, Chiara's Parents

I met Gloria on her website, I was about giving birth and I wanted someone to rely on in order to live a really profound experience, with the right mood and consciousness. She helped me with relaxation, both physical and psychological, she gave me very practical advices for labour and birth. When Annie was born she came to meet her and helped me with the breastfeeding. It is a pity I didn't met her long time ago, I would have wanted her help through all my pregnancy.
Camilla, Annie's Mom

After my degree in Childcare I didn't really know what to do next. I was teaching at a kindergarden for the last 5 years and I desired to start my own activity. I needed something, probably a universal sinchronicity… Pregnancy was very far from my thought, though I was married for an year, one day during my shopping in a supermarket I saw a book, the book of Willie Maurer. I read it in a couple of days: finally I had found what I was missing. I had been surfing in internet and on Willie Maurer website I found the Primal Counseling that Gloria created. Immediately I called her and I started my internship in her method. With Gloria I finally found what I was really looking for: the education and the holistic vision of the whole. Here I could grow up in my profession but also I made a big jump in my private life. I am sure that when you make the 'right' choice you will receive all the informations one after the other. Now I am studying all sorts of things to deepen my path, but I find Gloria's approach to work and life very complete. 
Alexia Martinelli - Primal Counselor

I have been walking with Gloria a personal growth path. It had been a long journey but it has been changed with a variety of instruments that kept my attention high and that made my experience very useful and really exciting.
Antonia

Working with Gloria, I realized how it is beautiful and possible to be myself, living with joy and trust every single moment of my day… and the Happiness raised with no effort.
Giada

I have always though that nothing happens without a reason. Sometimes my fatalism is so in me that I am frozen in front of what happens. With no words I trust my instinct and to my karmic spirit in which I have been always believed. I read about Gloria in a friend's book (Bruno Zanaboni), and working with you had been a revelation and a Karma confirmation. In a difficult period of my life your workshop, your energy and your guidance gave me all the support I needed. Nobody is born as a complete man, we all need the others in order to grow up. I think that it is important to meet the right people in the right conditions not to drown in our suffering ocean. The Primal Counseling workshop it is, for me, not only useful for the informations but it is a deep path, thanks to your energy, that brings you to face the dark sides - and probably kept dark. Thank you, looking forward to keep on working with you.

Meeting Gloria has been really a strange case, but really nice! She made me discover my ability of using my hands as a therapist with the ayurvedic massage. Her passion and patience in teaching that she gives to her students is extraordinary. It is not easy to find such teachers that gives you the passion for what they are doing. Thank you dearest Gloria because you can teach with love what you do.

My Master Gloria…
… she took my hand when I was disoriented and fearful… I was not living.
It has been a long journey, with joy and glory, from the outside to the inside, to rebirth myself, to see, to 'feel' what was in my heart, in my soul…
… to recuperate the equilibrium and the nourishment that gives your life back… that gives a meaning of life back…. Thank you Gloria.
