a 1-year training

An in-depth and extensive
journey of growth

Acquire knowledge, skills, and experience to work as a therapist, supporting with nervous system regulation and trauma tools.

In addition to everything mentioned for the introductory, semi-intensive, and intensive courses, the fact that this training consists of 10 modules allows us to delve deeper into each of the tools introduced in those initial courses and explore the multidimensionality of this bodywork.

We rely on social connection and the support of the group, creating a safe space for a profound journey.

Two parts of the training

1st Part (First 5 Modules):

The foundations of Californian massage with elements of nervous system regulation

What you will take away

PSYCHOSOMATIC APPROACH

  • Resources for self-regulation.
  • Therapeutic setting.

  • Somatic terminology: Neuroception, proprioception, and interoception. Discharge, vortex-counter vortex.
  • What trauma is and how it manifests in the body.
  • Recognizing the physiology of the defense system.
  • How to support emotional processes.
  • Somatic exercises, active meditations based on 5 Rhythms practices, and other previously described dynamics.

2nd Part (Last 5 Modules):

PSYCHOSOMATIC APPROACH

  • Detecting traumatic imprints and reinterpreting trauma.
  • Strengthening what was learned in the first part to ensure a session is fully integrated into therapeutic support.

CALIFORNIAN MASSAGE

The focus of this part will be on attention to detail. We will take the time to study structurally more complex areas such as the hips, forearms, and wrists, as well as deeper layers of neck tension. We will also explore the entire body and additional sequences in the supine position (face up).
