Vaginal steaming is a practice also known as yoni steaming or V-steaming which involves exposure of the vagina to steam for the purpose of cleansing it and promoting its health.
The practice requires a woman wearing no underwear to sit on a stool with a hole or a bucket that contains steaming hot water and herbs like mugwort, rosemary, and basil for 20 minutes or less. she may wrap her waist to the thigh with a towel to prevent the steam from escaping.

Herbs and plants either dried or fresh are suggested even some of the plants in your spice rack are perfect. the commonly used ones are:

Clove
basil (efirin)
rosemary (anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-microbial)
oregano (antiseptic, antispasmodic, expectorant)
calendula (anti-inflammatory)
motherwort (tonifies, cramping, infections)
marigolds (anti-inflammatory)
