What actually happens in an Omnitherapy session?

The treatment consists of three parts:

Part One

In the first session, we will devote most of the time to getting to know you, clarifying what has brought you to therapy, and defining the purpose of the process.

In the following sessions, this part of the conversation will be dedicated to sharing significant events you have experienced during the week since the previous session, describing what is happening now, and understanding what the current session will focus on.

This part may take 10 minutes or 30 minutes, depending on what is needed.

Part Two

We move from the armchairs to the treatment table.

In this part, the client lies on the treatment table fully clothed, preferably in comfortable clothing. The therapist uses various touch techniques while guiding the client to use breath, movement, voice, and attention. In this way, a kind of conversation is created between therapist and client.

Inner experiences, emotions, and thoughts are given space and expression, and together we explore the conflicted states the client wishes to change.

Part Three

Integration.
We return to sitting and talking.

In the final minutes of the session, we gather everything that has come up during the treatment and connect the bodily experience from the treatment table more fully to the life issue we are working on.

We gather the main conclusions and insights that arose from the body, and choose an “attention task” to practice during the week, until the next session.

What is an “attention task”?

At the end of each session, we focus on the way the person can continue bringing the change into everyday life.

What should they pay attention to? How can they recognize the new choices that become possible following the treatment?

Naturally, the further a person progresses in the process, the more quickly they are able to change and internalize the process. Although faster is not always better or deeper.

Who is this treatment for, and what is it good for?

The treatment is suitable for anyone who wishes to touch the heart of things.

It is for anyone interested in a therapeutic process that touches deeply, in a gentle yet very direct way. The body cannot be lied to.

The treatment offers support for a wide range of emotional states that have fallen out of balance and are eroding a person’s quality of life, as well as for anyone who needs support during a time of crisis.

Emotional states:

• Coping with outbursts of anger
• Coping with depression
• Difficulty setting boundaries
• A sense of being “lost” or confused
• Anxiety
  
  

Crisis situations:

• Separation from a partner
• Loss of a loved one
• Life transitions
• A crisis resulting from illness or an accident
• Growth and personal development:
• Connecting to one’s calling
• Deepening the connection with the body and emotions
• A need for renewal
• Acquiring tools for inner work

How long does the process take?

The length and dynamics of the process naturally vary from person to person and from situation to situation.

It can be said that three months is the minimum amount of time needed for meaningful change to begin to take place. Although we touch on essential issues from the very first session, deep processes of learning and healing take time.

Usually, if a process continues for more than a year, we will initiate a break, by mutual agreement, so that the person can internalize the process and avoid developing dependency on the therapist.

The frequency of sessions can be once a week, at least during the first three months, or once every two weeks. This depends on the person’s condition and needs, as well as on the therapist.

What is the advantage of working through the body, as opposed to verbal therapy alone?

The body holds all of our memories, fears, pains, joys, and successes. It expresses, with great precision, who we are, including our gifts and our patterns of behavior.

The physical body exists on the threshold between our inner world and the external reality of our lives. Because of all this, it becomes a powerful tool in any process of change.

Often, understanding the problem alone is not enough to create change. Bodywork touches the inner experience and makes it possible to change our conditioning from the root.
