Psycho-Somatotherapy

as a healing method is an original synthesis which integrates elements of several manual techniques, psychotherapeutic tools and psychic healing. It helps us to overcome the difficult situations of the past, to have access to our internal resources to better manage our life in a perspective of evolution. Beyond the technical aspect of massage, touch is perceived as a curative and transformative act which makes it possible to highlight the difference between real needs and life scenarios/patterns.
  

This approach, which acts on both the body and the psyche, reveals a fundamental function:

Everyone’s quest to give a meaning to life.

 

At the heart of body/psycho energy and inner research therapies, the Psycho-Somatotherapy or Body Oriented Psychotherapy has a global and holistic vision of the human being.

Even though there might be no words to express a suffering, the body is able to tell the story.
