What is Somatic Healing Touch? 

Somatic comes from Greek somatikos, and means “pertaining to the body”.

Somatic Healing Touch is a powerful and transformative method developed by Tia Marcuzzi over 12 years.

The intention of Somatic Healing Touch is to restore physical, emotional and energetic wellbeing through a combination of bodywork and nurturing massage, intuitive touch and energetic healing and activations. It can be performed over clothes or directly on the skin with undergarments on. 

Common issues:

Physical symptoms – body pains (neck, back, headaches), acute or chronic issues and symptoms 
Emotional symptoms – anxiety, general lacklustre, lack of vitality or motivation, overwhelm
Work related issues -  stress, procrastination, creatively blocked, lack of clarity
Intimacy issues -  fear of intimacy,  low libido, numbness, feeling disconnected

Please note: There is no direct genital touch in my sessions - this is not Sexological Bodywork - but a gentle method to activate the body's healing energies and stimulate life-force energy throughout the systems of the body.

What to Expect in a Somatic Healing Session with Tia

Somatic Healing Touch can be done over clothes or directly on the body with undergarments on, depending on the individual need and preference.

The session begins with us identifying where you feel discomfort, stress and what concerns you have. We get clear on your intention as that guides the healing.

My goal is to assist you to tune in to your body, it's messages and it's wisdom. 

In our deep listening, I will be guided to the underlying source of your pain - whether that be emotional, physical or energetic. I may hold parts of the body that need attention or healing, and provide subtle yet powerful energy work to clear blocked energy. 

In this safe, non-rushed space, your body and mind have the time and space to relax and open, to process and integrate emotional experiences and more.

As the session unfolds, you are more than welcome to share what may be arising for you, or you can simply relax and soak up the beautiful healing energy and blissful touch.

Commonly Asked Questions

What modalities is Somatic Healing Touch based on?

Somatic Healing Touch is a combination of energetic and spiritual healing (based on my 2 years of training at the Berkeley Psychic Institute in USA) with Chi Nei Tsang body work techniques (USA) - a branch of chinese medicine working with the fascia and flow of energy in the body systems. I also incorporate a range of other modalities and practices I've trained in and incorporated into my own life, including kinesiology, neuroscience and polyvagal theory, counselling and coaching modalities.  

I'm a trauma informed therapist and apply the understandings and knowledge I've gained through my own healing processes and extensive experiences.

How will I know if Somatic Healing Touch is right for me?

If you have never received any kind of bodywork or energy healing work before, you are welcome to have a phone discussion with me so you can get your questions answered. 

You can get a feel for what I do by chatting with me. I'll also get a sense of what you need and whether that's aligned with what I provide. 

 

Are Somatic Healing Touch sessions of a intimate or sexual nature?

Whilst this work (and any therapy that works on the body in general) can be of a personal and intimate nature, please be aware this work is not of a sexual nature at all, and it does not involve genital touch.

Though my work supports you to transform your life through practices and treatments that re-connect you with your body and help unlock pleasure, healing and intimacy in your life, I work predominately with the energy field and how energy is flowing through your whole body. 

This work involves one way touch from practitioner to client and the degree of intimacy in the bodywork will be geared towards what is comfortable, appropriate for your healing and what unfolds in our work together.

As a Somatic Healer, my boundaries and your boundaries will always be respected.

I bring integrity, humility and emotional maturity to this work. Therefore, a level of vulnerability, emotional maturity and honesty is required if you choose to partake in healing sessions with me.

Please do not contact me if you are looking for sexual services.
