Deep Body Work
Intensive Residential Training
We are constantly looking to offer you excellent training. We think about taking your development as a massage therapist to a much higher level. This Deep Body Work training is part of our constant quest to offer information that will change your perspective and sensory development.
Characteristics of the course
Deep Body Work is a technique patented by Perry Holloman and Johanna Holloman. Perry and Johanna are both Esalen massage teachers and their experience dates back to the early eighties. They are both leaders in Esalen massage and are part of the teaching staff of the Esalen massage teacher training.
Deep Body Work, when performed slowly, is similar to Esalen Massage in its ability to catalyse a relaxation process in our clients.
One of the most valuable skills is to create a very precise point of awareness within our client’s body. The creation of this point can catalyse a very deep, presence-based relaxation process.
Another unique property of Deep Body Work is the ability to unravel traumatic injuries located at spatially deep levels of the physical body.
The integration of deep body work and Esalen massage is the essence of this outstanding training.
Requirement for this training: 175 hours of certified training.
