Tatchi MatzINTEGRATIVE BODYINDIVIDUAL SESSIONS
An experience that brings together body, mind and emotion.
For people living with recurring pain, persistent tension or emotional overwhelm who want support that considers their experience as a whole.
A space to listen to your body, understand patterns and develop new experiences of inner safety.
A first 30-minute conversation to understand where you are now.
A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE
Pain is often part of adaptations the body has developed over time — physical, emotional and neurological.
This process invites curiosity and respect for your experience, exploring the relationship between what you feel, your history and the way your body responds.
The support aims to support autonomy, presence and a more conscious relationship with your body.
WHO IT IS FOR
This process may be right for you if you:
HOW IT WORKS
An in-person session lasts approximately 2 to 2½ hours. Listening and bodywork are part of the same session, respecting each person’s pace and needs.
A space for deep listening to recognise physical, emotional and behavioural patterns related to feeling on alert or experiencing pain.
We talk about your experience, notice what happens in your body and clarify what makes sense for this moment.
This phase prepares the ground for bodywork, supporting presence and safety.
Hands-on and somatic work develops from what the body presents and what we noticed in the first phase.
Conscious touch, awareness and movement may be part of the process, aiming to soften tension and expand possibilities for sensing and responding.
The experience is guided with clarity, respect and attention to your boundaries.
WHAT COMES TOGETHER
Each session may integrate somatic awareness, nervous system regulation, precise hands-on work and emotional work when needed.
The approach develops from your experience, respecting your current circumstances, boundaries and bodily history.
My work brings body and awareness together in one process.
