Releasing deep rooted heavy traumas can be realized these days by "trauma touch", a new approach which seems to be minimal from the outside, but which may release a lot on the inside. This new approach is taught in the Netherlands
In these workshops we have been taught "...we will learn what shock and trauma are and gain an understanding of what happens in our bodies and especially in our Nervous System when we are overwhelmed by experiences that we are unable to handle in the given moment. We will show how touch and counselling can be used as tools for working with traumatic issues. And we will experience ways to resource ourselves and our clients as a way of working with difficult experiences. These techniques are beneficial to use in our everyday life as well."
Trauma healing
During "trauma healing" you will lay on your back, fully dressed, on the massage table, face up. I will sit quietly behind you, touching your shoulders lightly at the shoulder blade. And then I proceed to ask questions. And I invite you to describe your inner feelings inside your body, the physical sensations in your heart, belly, arms and legs. And we will proceed through a number of visualisations in order to really experience those body parts. To become aware. Feel the change. Once in a while I may stand up in order to touch your hand or feet. That is all. Or all that can be seen from the outside. Inside much more is going on.
The miraculous thing about "trauma healing" is this: We do NOT proceed to go through the old trouble! Image your trauma is rooted in a painful event at work, or with a friend or family member. Then we do not go back to that experience, but we stay within your body, in your experience, in the here and now of your experience in your body and your organs. In this therapy we will find the resources (healing powers) which will start to heal you.
Chi
The Great Goddess in the Sky has perhaps chosen me as a human conduit for an amazing waterfall of energy, life giving Chi. It flows into me from the outside and then from my Heart Chakra to my hands and then radiating out in abundance. Always outward in my warm hands.
Numerous people whom I work with, and who are able to 'see' auras and pure energies, have independently reported that something extraordinary is going on. As for myself: I have not created my energy field. I have not even asked for it. It is a true gift from above and I have not even been able to figure out what the true source and nature of this energy is, but I know for sure that it is there and that it flows like crazy, in a broad waterfall of Goodness and Life Force.
During the last years I have been blessed in my bodywork to help people in fundamental ways. With my little bit of help, a number of people have turned their own keys around. Afterwards they have stated time and again by email that they have been refashioned in a new identity and power. That is why those people have called me a magician.
Massage
I believe that touch is a great gift between human beings.

Massage works by means of the quiet, healing power of human touch; the most direct contact without words between one person and another. It influences your total well being - not only of the skin itself, but of the entire person. Massage has miraculous therapeutic powers.
Both the people receiving and giving massage are not just concerned with an arm, leg or back, but bring to it their totality as a human being. During the massage, they stand at the outer limit of the skin - the most sensitive and largest human organ - and thus at the outer limit of the physical self. At its very best, the massage session provides bliss in a worldthat can be filled with stress and pressure. Massage provides an experience in quality time - with the release of energies and endorphins.

Quiet and Trusting
Giving and receiving transformational massage takes place in inner calmness and concentration on the basis of serenity and trust.
The type of massage that I give is known as 'holistic' or 'intuitive'. The technnique makes use of two full hands on the client, and is aimed at relaxation. In the best of cases it may trigger - in the one who receives - an inner sensation of flow, peace, serenity and bliss. The body relaxes in enjoyment and the mind may soar as well. I am open minded and welcome all kinds of persons and couples in all kinds of relationship. Among my clients are people from the straight and gay communities. I also work for the international DrDot team which serves the great pop stars.
Structure of a Session
Before starting I appreciate a short conversation as to preferences and problems. Within a long session of one hour and 15 mins, each client chooses which body parts are to be massaged. This selection is geared towards the needs of the person who receives the message.
During a table massage the transformational massage session can deal with the head, neck, shoulders, back, sides, arms and hands; the upper chest (ribs, stomach), buttocks (optional), legs and last but not least, the feet.
Initially the body is fully covered with a cloth made out of the finest French linen. After a a few minutes of pulsing, I uncover one body part at the time.
During pulsing and stretching as a masseur I perform a quiet dance movement, in which the person who receives massage fully accepts the slow movements and relaxation.
At the end of the session various parts of the body have been touched with energy and care. Regaining the sense of unity of the body is reached bymeans of repeated feathery light traces superimposed on the body of 'energizing finishing strokes'
An entire session with introduction about an hour and a quarter. Please note that I do not treat serious medical conditions.
Besides my work giving massage, I also enjoy giving massage to couples, of any colour or sexual leaning, working together in 4 hands massage and exchanging massage with others.

MASSAGE THERAPIY AGAINST DEPRESSION
Psychologists at Illinois University have researched effectiveness of massage therapy. A series of visits to the masseur may reduce depression, anxiety and pain. Even single visits may help alleviating anxiety and pain and may reduce hypertension and a high heart rate.
