Working with low-energy states in Biodynamic Massage
A short workshop with Kathrin Stauffer for members of ABMT



Based on my 2020 book on psychotherapy with clients who were neglected early in life, I want to present my take on working in biodynamic massage with low-energy states. I will attempt to make a case that work with low-energy states needs to be radically different from work with high-energy states, and want to show both theoretically and practically why I think this and how it looks.


The presentation will include both a more theoretical perspective and practicalities for how the theory can be applied to hands-on work with clients.
