What is Somatic Bodywork?

Somatic bodywork connects the body and mind through gentle touch, movement, and breath to release stored tension, stress, and past trauma. By tuning into the body's natural rhythms, it promotes emotional healing, including inner child work, and fosters a sense of grounding, connection, and peace.

Yu’s Somatic Bodywork Approach

Yu blends Eastern energetic touch with Western myofascial release to unblock energy channels and harmonize Yin and Yang. By working with the 12 organ meridians, she helps restore balance, release blockages, and promote grounding. This approach supports trauma release, nurtures inner child healing, and enhances vitality, clarity, and emotional well-being.

 

The Five Element Framework

Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the Five Element framework offers a holistic approach to healing by linking emotions, physical health, and mental states. The five elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—govern various aspects of life, including organs, emotions, and sensory experiences.

Each element influences our well-being:

  • Wood – Growth, movement, and anger
  • Fire – Heart, joy, and passion
  • Earth – Stability, nourishment, and worry
  • Metal – Strength, structure, and grief
  • Water – Vitality, fear, and wisdom

In my practice, this framework helps identify and address imbalances, restoring harmony across body, mind, and spirit. By integrating this wisdom, clients experience deeper self-awareness, inner balance, and renewed vitality.

 

Restoring Balance Through Vibration

Everything in existence vibrates at specific frequencies, including our bodies. When these frequencies become imbalanced, discomfort and illness can arise.

Tuning fork therapy uses sound vibrations to harmonize the body's energy. Applied to acupuncture points, tuning forks regulate chi (life energy) within the 12 organ meridians, similar to acupuncture. This method helps clear blockages, restore balance, and promote healing at a deep level.

By integrating the Five Element framework, energetic bodywork, and tuning fork therapy, my practice provides a transformative path to reduced tension, increased vitality, and profound inner harmony.

 

Client Experiences

‘Already in my first session with Yu  I was able to release some very old, deep held grief. The tightness I’ve felt in my chest for as long as I can remember slowly melted away under her hands. I felt so safe and nurtured throughout - and it’s amazing to witness how much deeper I’m able to breathe now. I couldn’t recommend Yu more highly!’

Anna 

'From her first touch, my body began to relax at a deep subconscious level. I could sense her calm presence and compassion holding me throughout our sessions, opening a safe space for my stored tensions and pains to surface and release.

Most incredible was her use of the body’s energy lines and nerve points to elicit a dynamic healing flow that moved effortlessly through me, using her unique and powerful blend of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Myofascial Release Bodywork.

Our sessions have unlocked new levels of power, fluidity and trust in my body and being. I am so grateful to you Yu for sharing your powerful healing touch with me.'
