Somatic Experiencing

Somatic Experiencing is a body-based therapy for the treatment of trauma. Trauma resides in the body as trapped energy, which may have become fixed when the body was over-whelmed. The gentle release of this energy allows the trauma to be released gradually in a controlled manner without the need for the person having to re-experience the original trauma.

This is a scientifically proven technique, which is suitable for helping many types of trauma including those traumas where the person may have no implicit memory of the trauma. Developed by Dr Peter Levine, who discovered that animals in the wild whose lives are routinely threatened by predators are not traumatised compared to humans where the natural release of energy from trauma can be interrupted by social and/or cultural influences although the process is similar. Somatic experiencing allows the person to tune into this natural process.

Geraldine has created a space of wonder and curiosity in her beautiful healing treatment room. I had the pleasure of receiving Lomi Lomi Massage which I hoped would last forever and left me in a space of a starfish goddess. What I loved most was the ease and kindness that Geraldine shared with me, her energy, her passion and her intuitive ability to read my body. Thank you Geraldine. Highly recommend this experience.

-Anna Gale

I can’t recommend Geraldine highly enough as a Reiki teacher – she creates a beautiful, welcoming, warm space and has such a lovely supportive energy about her. I have to date completed level 1 and 2 and hope to complete the master level with her and further training after that. Geraldine is a truly wonderful teacher and I look forward to continuing my learning journey with her over the next few years.

-Orla Roberts

I randomly booked a Reiki session with Geraldine a few months ago during a stressful period and it led to a whole other life changing journey that I could never have anticipated. I went on to do some shamanic sessions with Geraldine. She creates a warm, welcoming safe space and she has such a kind, calming presence about her. That combined with her knowledge, and the passion she has for the work she does, creates something special.

-Paula Keegan

I feel very privileged to have taken my journey toward Reiki practicing with Geraldine. Over the four courses I feel I've gotten an excellent introduction and grounding in Reiki healing and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Geraldine as a Reiki teacher for anyone.

-Seanán Kerr

I love crystals and choose this therapy. It was powerful but felt safe and gentle at the same time. I felt a huge energy shift and situations in my life changed as a result. Thank you!

I loved Geraldine’s gentle touch and powerful results in clearing and grounding. And the way Geraldine calls all the elements with due respect and love. True Shamanism.

Geraldine is a great practitioner and very tuned into her client’s needs. I would highly recommend her.
