1:1 Body Work &
Somatic Healing Sessions
WITH VANESSA
“People who work with me describe feeling more energised, calmer and more confident, and some have noticed changes in the way they experience their symptoms.”
Reclaim Your Body, Reconnect with Yourself
Is your body speaking to you and you're ready to listen?
A tightness that won’t shift.
A tension that keeps returning.
A sense of being “on” all the time.
A desire to complement what you're already doing
These 1:1 sessions are a gentle, evidence-informed blend of bodywork, psychosomatic therapy, nervous system regulation and intuitive guidance. Designed to help you unwind, reconnect, and soften back into yourself.
A space where you can exhale.
You can tap into your body's natural way of healing.
And where you can rest and return to your whole self.
A BIT MORE ABOUT
Psychosomatic Therapy
The more technical explanation for how body work works.
Psychosomatic Therapy complements a holistic approach to supporting your wellbeing based on the relationship between the mind (psyche) and body (soma). It’s a form of mind, body medicine.
Psychosomatic Therapy draws from a range of philosophies and body-mind traditions, and explores how our emotional life, stress patterns and lived experiences may influence the body.
Its core principles include:
-
Exploring the connection between emotions, stress, nervous system regulation and physical wellbeing
-
Noticing how unresolved stress or emotional patterns may shape the way your body feels, responds or carries tension
-
Recognising that many factors, including biology, lifestyle, environment, medical history and emotional wellbeing influence health
-
Supporting self-awareness, emotional regulation and body connection through gentle reflection and body-based practices

What happens in a session?
WHAT THESE SESSIONS SUPPORT
1. Arrival + Grounding
We begin with breath, gentle check-in, and orienting your body into safety.
2. Consultation + Bodywork + Somatic Release
A full-body experience combining emotional trigger point therapy, somatic release, and integration. Slow, intuitive bodywork to soften the fascia, release emotional tension, balance chakras and support your nervous system to shift into regulation. This session helps you locate and release emotional patterns stored in your body, often creating profound emotional and physical shifts.
3. Integration
Reflections, practical tools, and a small self-softening ritual you can take home.
Investment: $300 (sessions are 2.5hours in-person only)
Important note: Body Work is complementary in nature, offering a gentle body-based space to support self-awareness, nervous system regulation and emotional wellbeing. It is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, and each session is adapted with your needs, comfort and safety in mind. Some deeper bodywork techniques, including Trigger Point Therapy, may not be suitable for everyone.
1:1 Somatic Healing & Nervous System Coaching
Somatic Healing is a gentle, body-based space to feel supported, reconnect with your body and explore deeper healing through somatic practices, nervous system awareness and intuitive guidance.
What happens in a session? Online or in-person
1. Arrive - Grounding
We begin slowly - with a few breaths, a gentle check-in, and a simple settling practice. Your body needs to know it's safe before it can soften.
2. Soften - Build awareness and settle your nervous system
A Somatic Healing session is like a circle for one - a slow, quiet space where you can share what's been moving through you and happening in your life. I guide you through somatic practices that support alignment, embodiment, and nervous system regulation so you can experience noticeable shifts and softening in your body. I also share intuitive guidance to gently explore what stories and emotional patterns you might be holding. Together, we make room for what's ready to release, so you can feel more whole.
3. Return - Integration
We close gently...with a reflection, a practical tool, and a small self-softening ritual you can take home. I'll share a summary of our session afterwards (via email), so you can return to it whenever you need to.
Investment: 1-hour session: $150 (online or in-person)
Investment: 2-hour session: $250 (online or in-person)
Important note: Somatic Healing is a gentle body-based approach to supporting self-awareness, nervous system regulation and emotional wellbeing alongside the healthcare support you may already be receiving. This work is complementary and is not a replacement for medical or mental health care.

Thank you again! Exposing to my conscious brain the stories I've been running about my heart, my age and my family history has had a ripple effect in our house. I'm also noticing a release in the tension in my body. Nick
