What is a session like?

Meg Butler is a Rosen Method Bodywork Practitioner in Santa Barbara. In a private Rosen session gentle touch and verbal dialogue follow the breath to invite relaxation and awareness. As this process unfolds, truths held in the body surface and a deeper self emerges. While many come to Rosen for support with physical injury, others are drawn to the work as a tool for healing and personal growth.

I begin sessions with you lying on your belly on a massage table. I get a sense of where you hold your tension and where my curiosity about you begins. I also “listen” with my hands to the subtle changes in your muscular tension and to your breathing. We may talk about how your body is responding under my hands.

This is not something that I do to you. This is a journey that we take together as your truth unfolds. What happens in each session is individual and will change from session to session.

Sessions last an hour. Rosen Method Bodywork is beneficial in single sessions and in a short series of sessions. It is most effective, and goes deepest as an ongoing process.
