Body-oriented psychotherapy assumes that psychological troubles always have an physiological, organic aspect, i.e. they are embodied. Stressful events that could not be sufficiently processed at the time of the experience leave traces in the body and thus influence our thinking, acting and feeling. This can lead to chronic tension or other physical and mental symptoms. Biodynamic body psychotherapy works on the basis of depth psychology and uses body perception to uncover unconscious mental processes. So it's not just about talking about psychologically troubling topics, but about experiencing, feeling, expressing and understanding them, starting with the body. The careful balance between the expression of feelings, thoughts and the reflection of one's own experience ensures a gradual processing and gentle resolution of stress, tension and pain. A central feature of biodynamics is working with stress-regulating massages.
