The philosophy
A progressive approach to the body
Serious manual bodywork does not begin with an intense technique. It begins with listening, observation and preparation.
Each session begins by preparing the body as a whole. Pace and intensity are adapted to your sensations, areas of tension and everyday activity.
When more focused techniques are appropriate, they are explained before being proposed. They are never automatic and are only used with your agreement.
Essential principlePrepare before going deeper.
The manual approach
Neither an automatic protocol
nor a display of force.
Pressure, pace and the area being worked are adjusted in the moment. The aim is not a spectacular effect, but bodywork that makes sense for your current condition.
- 01Whole-body preparation
- 02Attentive observation
- 03Focused techniques when appropriate

Before the session
A simple, responsible framework

If you have a fever, infection, unexplained acute pain or recent trauma, the session should be postponed and a healthcare professional consulted when necessary.
