Somatic Bodywork Thornbury with Mike at Onaya. Somatic therapy, breathwork, bodywork and sound for people who want to stop reacting on autopilot and start responding with presence.
Somatic Bodywork Thornbury: working with the body, not just the mind
Somatic bodywork combines hands on work with awareness of what is happening inside the body. It helps release physical tension while also shifting the protective patterns underneath it.
What happens in a somatic bodywork session
Drawing on myofascial energetic release and Somatic Alignment training, Mike works slowly and attentively, checking in with you throughout. Breath and sound are often woven in to help the body feel safe to let go.
You remain aware, in control and supported throughout, and every session is tailored to you. Learn more about our somatic alignment.
Who somatic bodywork is for
Somatic bodywork is for people with long held tension, those who feel disconnected from their body, and anyone wanting trauma informed touch that respects their pace.
- Catching yourself before you shut down or react
- Staying present in conversations that would normally overwhelm you
- Letting your body soften instead of constantly bracing
- More space to choose how you respond in the moment
Somatic Bodywork for Thornbury clients
Onaya started out working with clients in Thornbury and Melbourne’s inner north, and many people from Thornbury, Northcote, Preston, Fairfield and Alphington continue their sessions with Mike at his studio in North Warrandyte. It is an easy drive out to the bush, and many clients find the trip part of the reset.
Getting started
The best first step is a free connection call, so we can talk about what you are looking for and whether this work is right for you. From there, many clients begin with the 3-Session Intro Series ($500), which gives your body and nervous system time to settle into the work and start to shift.
