Dates: Tuesday, 24th March 2026 (4:00 PM) to Sunday, 29th March 2026 (3:00 PM)

For European Students (non Swiss residents – please inquire about the Euro Course Fee)
Open for all interested, who have finished a 9-day Thaimassage Basic course.

During this course, we will explore the therapeutic application of Thai Massage in alignment with the five elements of Chinese Medicine. Each day, we will focus on one element—Water, Earth, Metal, Fire, or Wood—delving into its corresponding internal organs, meridians, acupoints, and associated practices. Thai Massage sequences will be used to address imbalances within each element.

Our journey will also lead us into the emotional body, pathological conditions, nutritional therapy, and herbal remedies. We will deepen our elemental awareness through ceremony, meditation, movement, touch, Qi Gong, and breathwork. By integrating the wisdom of the Tao with both static and dynamic Thai Massage techniques, we can tonify or disperse energy, correct deficiencies and excesses, and restore harmony to the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies.

We will explore the unique qualities of each element through the way we touch—applying air, water, earth, and fire touch techniques—to help rebalance the body’s natural energies.

Perhaps most importantly, this work nurtures a sense of community. As we learn to give and receive, we connect more deeply with ourselves and one another through the transmission of ancient wisdom and initiation into timeless Buddhist teachings and prayers.

5-Day Retreat in Thai Massage & Psychosomatics
Psychosomatic tools for Thai Massage – Understanding the language of the body.
Touching, sensing, releasing – to initiate healing processes and bring body & soul into harmony.
with Jens Sterz & Annely Steiner

Cost: CHF 975.00 including all course units, course materials, film, accommodation, and vegan meals
This course is open to all interested body therapists (Thai massage, Shiatsu, massage, craniosacral therapy)

In this 5-day workshop, you will be introduced to powerful psychosomatic techniques that can take your Thai massage practice to a deeper and more transformative level.
Together with your clients, you will learn to recognize the emotional and psychosomatic layers that often lie behind physical tensions and energetic blockages.

Through breathwork, conscious touch, and gentle vocal techniques, you will experience how to meet people where they are – and help them release protective patterns and defense mechanisms that hold pain or prevent letting go.
This holistic approach opens spaces for healing on all levels: physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual.

This introductory course is intended for practitioners with basic knowledge in Thai massage, Shiatsu, or comparable bodywork modalities.
You will receive practical tools to integrate verbal and emotional awareness into your treatments – especially with clients who are open to a psychosomatic dimension of healing.
We explore how the breath can serve as a guide to deeper tensions and how presence and empathy can open emotional expression spaces before or during the massage.

Open for all interested, who have finished a 9-day Thaimassage Basic course and is also part of the Thai Massage Vacanza Diploma training – Module 2.

Using the principles of gravity and natural laws, we work with deep, slow pressure that precisely and deeply penetrates various body structures, helping to open energy channels, release blockages, and promote a free energy flow in the Sip Sen. We learn how to correctly use our knees, forearms, and feet to conserve energy and avoid overstraining our wrists, hands, and thumbs. This method of using our bodies is highly effective, grounding, and relaxing for both the giver and the receiver.

To subtly integrate this grounding work into the body, mind, and soul, we will use techniques from craniosacral therapy to create space for the body’s self-healing mechanisms to unfold and establish a connection between heaven and earth through the central channel.

Many of us—and many of our clients—carry physical, metabolic, and emotional trauma. Trauma creates stress and tension in the body, reducing its natural adaptability and capacity for self-healing. Over time, the body’s buffering systems and its ability to adapt and self-regulate in response to internal and external influences can become compromised. This may lead to pain, restricted movement, emotional challenges, reduced vitality, and diminished awareness.

In this course, we learn to sense, feel, listen, and palpate the body’s systems—locally, regionally, and globally. Through mindful Thai massage, integrated with osteopathic and cranial principles, approaches, and techniques, we cultivate a deep understanding of how tissues, fluids, and the whole living system respond to stress and trauma. We also learn how to work skillfully to support release, restore freedom, and encourage balance.

Our intention is to support adaptability and homeostasis within the organism. By reducing stress and restoring balance, we help create the conditions for healing, growth, and a more vital, conscious, and embodied life.
