SOMA Healing Art is a unique combination of physical therapy, psychotherapy & eco therapy, using tools such as trance, touch, breath, voice, visualisation, gesture and movement to investigate and heal symptoms of stress and trauma.
The SOMA Healing Art Training (short SOMA "HeArT") conveys the essence of healing during 8 modules. The course covers the 7 medicines that our bodies are blessed with when used consciously and skilfully. The distilled wisdom received from different traditions of massage & bodywork, tantra, breath work, emotional processing & dream work, somatic practices, guided imagery, plant medicine and meditation will be shared and specific skills will be practiced during this 1-yr basic training.
See below for the main methods that can also be the centre of attention during a SOMA Healing session:
Somatic Osteopathy
for adults, children & babies
The more the body has to compensate for physical &/or emotional trauma the more it'll need external help to get back into balance.
Osteopathy is a sophisticated form of Manual Therapy that stimulates the body‘s own healing mechanism by facilitating more freedom of movement, blood flow, lymphatic drainage, myofascial unwinding and balancing of the nervous system.
"Somatic" Osteopathy is how I call my personal approach to this healing art, providing a safe space to express and explore emotions that can be released when working on the body.

"SOMA Tierrapia" - Nature Therapy
for individuals & groups at Amara Eco-Retreat
"Tierrapia" is a a new word creation combining two Spanish terms "tierra" (earth) and "terapia" (therapy).
It is based on a well-researched healing modality from Japan called "Shinrin-Yoku" which translates as 'forest bathing'. Studies demonstrate significant reductions in stress, anxiety, depression and sleeplessness even after short dips into the forest. SOMA Tierrapia sessions are about 1 hour walks into nature where mindfulness exercises facilitate the conscious connection of our soma with the earth.
This offer is currently available only for guests at
SOMA Ceremony
Celebrating Life!
Soma healing rituals date back to more than 4.000 years ago as described in the RigVedas. The Soma Ceremony is probably the oldest healing ritual documented which greatly influenced the mystical traditions of Asia and alchemical concepts of the Western world.
In a SOMA ceremony we recreate the magic of ritual by gathering in a circle, sharing our truths, honouring our ancestors and celebrating life with dance, song, music and medicinal plants, connecting deeply with ourselves, each other, our earth and the cosmos.
Please see EVENTS section for previous and future ceremonies.
