Somatic Shiatsu

What is Somatic Shiatsu?
Somatic Shiatsu is an intimate encounter of presence with your physical, mental, emotional, and energetic body. Through conscious touch and mindful attention, I accompany you to release the avoidance mechanisms that distance you from who you truly are.

It is a contact therapy that reverses traditional roles: you are the protagonist of the session and your body is our guide. There are no external diagnoses or interpretations of what you “should” feel. We fully trust your body’s wisdom, its timing, and its ability to self-regulate.

We work with the understanding that the body is a fabric of experiences, energies, and meridians according to the elements of Chinese medicine, yet always from an approach centred in your present experience.

This practice combines the ancestral wisdom of Shiatsu and its techniques with the somatic understanding of the body, creating a safe space where you can fully inhabit what you feel without judgment or standards — to be aware, and from that presence, to choose.

What happens in a session?

In each 90-minute session we create a space of contact, presence, exploration, and nourishment where:

• Your body receives full attention and genuine presence
• The memory of struggle stored in your tissues is released
• Emotions are allowed to circulate as energy in movement
• You practice the art of receiving without having to give anything back
• You connect with the trust of your own inner knowing

This is not just a massage — it is an invitation to:

• Release the struggle – Free yourself from the constant defense and survival state that keeps your body tense
• Inhabit presence – Develop the capacity to stay with yourself, with all that arises, without needing to escape
• Trust your inner knowing – Honor what you feel and communicate assertively what you need
• Liberate retained energy – Transform physical discomfort into available energy to direct towards where your heart calls
• Feel part of the web – Recognize the importance of your presence in the world and in life

This accompaniment is for women who:

• Want to feel more at home in their bodies
• Feel disconnected from their physicality
• Struggle to stay present with their emotions
• Seek to grow in self-trust and trust in life
• Wish to release patterns of inner struggle and self-sabotage
• Feel the need to let go of the constant survival mechanism

Integrated Tools:
