True Transformation

Maarch 9 - March 16, 2024

Playa el Coco, Nicaragua

Awake to organic fresh juices and locally sourced coffee then head to the ocean front yoga area for a therapeutic movement experience that combines guided fascial release with an intelligently sequenced yoga flow designed to gently and powerfully realign the body and neurology.

After, enjoy a delicious organic breakfast, then indulge in massages, walk the beach, swim, horseback ride or surf; whatever your heart desires.

In the evenings take part in our transformative bodywork offerings and amazing investigations into self healing, or take time for self care.

As part of this revolutionary week of healing, Daphne and Michelle are offering their transformational bodywork sessions for those that want to work on deeper levels of healing. Whether unwinding patterns of pain and tension, working to unravel long held “mysterious” symptoms, or working to older without growing decrepit, these treatments are designed to bring peace, power, grace and agility to all who are ready to take the plunge into deep healing.

You will come away from this amazing week, feeling renewed, refreshed and empowered with the knowledge to continuing your healing journey!

    Sometimes the issues are not where the pain is felt in the body. Sometimes they are structural and held in the muscles bones and fascia, sometimes they are energetic and held in the nervous system, sometimes they are adhesions or old scar tissue playing out in the organs, sometimes they are in our ancestral lineage, and the body always knows what it wants to heal first.

    This work treats from the micro level of the blood vessel, nerves, organs, cranial systems, bones and connective tissue with a high level of specificity, to the macro level of how the parts of the body are aligned together and how freely they are moving. Daphne and Michelle are trained in the lineages of Structural Integration and Osteopathy and also specialize in working with trauma, both physical and emotional, supporting it to exit the nervous system.

    Our work starts by asking your body questions, and listening deeply to the answers. Then a highly personalized treatment emerges that is unique to every individual.

    This work can be supportive work for injury patterns, disc issues, incontinence, menstrual issues, nerve pain, car accidents, falls, IBS, GURD, scoliosis, concussions, pelvic imbalances, head aches, and chronic injuries to give some examples.

    We are the therapists people go to when they have seen everyone else. We deeply support our clients self discovery though deep yet gentle structural work, movement, spiritual and shamanic work.

    Please be prepared by wearing a swimsuit, or underwear as we will be benefited by seeing how the body is stacked and in relationship to itself. Keep in mind these sessions will be more focused on solutions than a full body treatment. If you are ready to release the old, please get ready for true transformation!
