Biodynamic massage therapy combines a wide
variety of different types of touch in a unique way for each
individual. The quality of touch ranges all the way from very deep
muscle work to very light contact (and may even include work around the
body, in the aura).
Rather than solely focusing on
whichever muscles are tight or whatever needs to be
done from a theoretical point of view, biodynamic massage
therapy also works with a felt sense of what is required in each and every
moment. It also incorporates a certain amount of talking
(varying widely with different clients).
These characteristics create the possibility for a very deep level of
connection - both between therapist and client, and for the
client with their body, their inner life and their sense of self
and the present moment.
Every massage is different, and most clients find the experience
highly enjoyable.
Biodynamic massage therapy aims to return you naturally to the
flow of life. It
does this by bringing you more into touch
with yourself and by enhancing your body's inherent capacity to self-regulate.
The intention is that your
body becomes a much nicer place to live in: you literally
"come home to yourself."
A typical outcome is that you
end each session in a much more
centred, grounded, embodied state. You become more
"yourself" ... someone who feels alive and in
touch with the world as a joyful place in which to live.
Biodynamic massage therapy is suitable for
everyone, for example:
- Sports people
- Those wanting help with stress-related
issues
- People who simply want a way
of regularly checking in with their body as part of a health
maintenance programme
- Individuals who are in recovery from
challenging life events
- People who are wanting relief from
a wide range of medical
conditions
- Those who want to explore life in more depth.
As a practitioner, I am
developing a special interest in working with people who have
experienced traumatic events (road traffic and other accidents;
surgery or other kinds of injury, illness or medical
intervention;
physical/emotional/sexual abuse etc.) and I am increasingly
incorporating verbal interventions and mindfulness type
exercises into my work. You can read more about my influences here.
