What is Body Psychotherapy?
Body psychotherapy integrates body and mind in the therapeutic process. The method is based on the understanding that psychological burdens are stored in the body as tension, pain, and unhelpful movement patterns. Through breathing exercises, body awareness, and movement, you are helped to release stuck emotions and restore the body's natural balance. Used for trauma, stress, anxiety, psychosomatic symptoms, and chronic pain.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål
Does body psychotherapy involve physical touch?
Some body therapists use touch as part of therapy, but this is always agreed upon in advance and only with your consent. Many exercises are based on body awareness, breathing, and movement without direct touch.
Who can benefit from body psychotherapy?
People with trauma, chronic stress, psychosomatic symptoms, chronic pain, anxiety, and dissociation can greatly benefit. It is particularly relevant if you experience the body 'remembering' burdens that words alone cannot reach.
Can body psychotherapy be combined with talk therapy?
Yes, body psychotherapy is often combined with other therapy forms. Many psychologists integrate body-oriented elements into their talk therapy, as body and mind are inseparable in the therapeutic process.
