Touch heightens awareness both physically and emotionally and allows the exploration of levels that are difficult to access through either talk or touch alone.

During a session you will lie fully clothed on a cushioned table or sit in a chair. The Synergist begins by inviting you to notice and express what you are feeling or thinking. She/he then makes gentle contact with your body, often beginning at your head or feet. You will verbally share what you are sensing and experiencing at each point of contact. This process can lead to new experiences of awareness, self-discovery and deep emotional connection.

"The client had been living with a constant aching in her shoulder. As the Synergist worked gently with her body, the client began to talk about how difficult and scary it had been growing up in her family. As she spoke, her shoulder started to pull in. Knowing it was a protective move, she imagined she could see her spirit living inside her shoulder curled up in a ball hiding. It had been beaten down and had given up on life. And she began to cry for her spirit that had been broken such a long time ago."
