Q: How is Youniversoul Somatic Healing Bodywork different from Massage Therapy? A: You are fully clothed throughout the session for your maximum awareness, safety, and comfort. No lotions or oils are applied, and skin contact is not needed. The hands-on process is slow, subtle, and pain-free. I do gentle, precise muscle tissue movement of the physical and the subtle energy body to facilitate the body's natural release of physical, emotional, and energetic blocks. Deep relaxation, improved flexibility and range of motion, and an improved sense of well-being are often results, but not the only goals, of this work. Unlike most massage therapists and bodyworkers, I have a Master’s degree and clinical training in Counseling Psychology. What this means for you is that, rather than offering friendly advice or my personal opinion about your pain and related issues, I have the experience and competence to safely engage your emotional and energetic release process. I am able to ensure that you are mentally present to the process and that you can integrate any insights that may arise as your body releases its embedded "wounds". You remain consciously "in control" of the pace and depth of your healing process, with me as your guide. Sessions are approximately 2-3 hours long to allow time for your deep self-exploration. Sessions also include Somatic Awareness Life Coaching which helps you: integrate your experiences during the session, and learn tools to help you notice changes in your mental-physical-emotional-energetic-relational (Somatic) System in your daily life.
