Somatics of the Feminine
Fully embodied women
A term coined by Thomas Henna, "somatics" is a field of study aimed at investigating the vibrant consciousness that inhabits the body making it, unlike the Latin corpus and the conception of the body-machine of the Western Enlightenment, a living, intelligent entity, bearer of history, one with everything.
In Somatics of the Feminine we work with the body on a biomechanical, biodynamic level, in relation to thought and speech, applying it to the profound Feminine. To those events and rites of passage that a woman can experience throughout her life. To those problems that inhabit her as a woman, daughter of centuries of history that sees the Feminine denied, distorted and forgotten.
In this path, health at the center, and there is space and enormous attention to every symptom. By allowing the body to be seen and heard in its entirety and by bringing light to every part of it, well-being can be brought to the entire system.
Working with the nervous system, the biomechanics of your body, and the abdominal and pelvic massage, I help you to find balance in order to thrive.
This work can be beneficial for you if: you want to take care of your Self and your body, you want to relax and find nourishment in a personal practice, you suffer from chronic pain, fatigue, insomnia, overall stress, anxiety, digestive or intestinal disorders. Also looking for answers regarding your hormonal imbalance, irregular or no periods, menstrual pain, fertility and conception issues, you have a birth scar, you have low libido and sexual difficulties, you hold back negative emotions related to a difficult or traumatic birth, you have had a miscarriage or an abortion, or if you differ from the woman or mother you would like to be.
The work
My approach
I care about women because I strongly believe that when a woman is in tune with her own body and dedicated to her own well-being, she can thrive. And if she does, her whole family and finally society does.
In a male centered society, females' rhythms are forgotten and unseen bringing great disconnection between women and their bodies, and themselves. This work puts your health at the center. It's in service of the female physiology, maternal health and postpartum rebalancing. It helps women to see that their own needs are important and that their symptoms deserve to be heard, understood and taken care of. When the body receives the listening it needs and is put in a position to return to optimal balance, it is able to regenerate and heal.
This work addresses the whole, does not try to suppress the symptom but to get to the root of the problem, works in harmony with the physiology of the body and through natural techniques, it complements medicine: I do not replace healthcare professionals nor do I make diagnoses.
My work is rooted in Craniosacral Biodynamics, myofascial massage and integrated abdominal and pelvic treatment as taught by Silvia Urbani. Furthermore, in the sessions I also use - based on the specific needs of the woman - a range of natural disciplines and techniques including: traditional medicine practices (INNATE Postpartum Care), body rehabilitation and corrective movement and yogic techniques, natural remedies and nutritional, trauma release guidance, pre- and perinatal education to promote a secure attachment with oneself and one's main relationships.
The benefits
To experience deep relaxation and gently ease stress, anxiety, trauma and physical and emotional tension, chronic pain of various kinds (headache, back pain...).
Well-being of the pelvic area
For pelvic pain, amenorrhea, menstrual pain, problems related to the reproductive and sexual sphere. To get back in touch with the root of the female body.
Abdominal well-being
Your belly is your core, everything branches out from there. For digestive problems, stress and emotional restrictions, post-caesarean section treatment, and general body health.
Rebalancing in the postpartum and after a pregnancy release
Body rebalancing and deep support to help you rebalance and fuel your life force after giving birth, or after the interruption or loss of a pregnancy.
How we can work together
You can book one session with me, or decide to undertake a path together.
After a 15 minutes free phone call consultation, we can decide if I am your best help and the right person to work with you and your needs.
We will meet in my studio (Val Pellice, (TO) Italy) or online. The first session is usually longer because we take the time to get to know each other and find out what you work on with me.
I work in the same exact way, both online and in-person but, of course, online there will not be the possibility to experience the touch work on the table.
