Psycho-organic analysis, a body-mind therapy
Psycho-organic analysis is a form of body-aware talking therapy. It listens to words and bodily sensations together, so that what the body holds can be felt, named and gently reworked. It suits people going through a transition, a loss, anxiety, repeating patterns, or simply a wish to feel more in contact with themselves. It is an accompaniment, not a medical treatment, and it works alongside your existing care, in concert with your doctor or psychiatrist when relevant.
Sessions last fifty minutes and cost €80; a first appointment can be arranged within a few days, in person or by video. Read more, in French, on the analyse psycho-organique page.
Systema deep massage, a Russian art of touch
The Systema deep massage comes from a Russian martial art turned into a practice of well-being. It uses the body weight, slow and precise pressure, breath and movement to ease deep tension and release the held areas, without ever working through pain. Deep does not mean painful: the pressure follows what your body can receive. It is a practice of relaxation, recovery and presence to the body, and does not replace medical, physiotherapy or osteopathy care.
L’Accordage lasts one hour (€80); Le Grand Accordage lasts ninety minutes (€110). Read more, in French, on the massage profond page.
Where the sessions take place
The consulting room, the Cabinet de l’Aurore, is at 26 avenue Saint-Fiacre, 78100 Saint-Germain-en-Laye, about forty minutes from central Paris by the RER A. The deep massage takes place in Mareil-Marly, a few minutes away. Psycho-organic analysis can also be held by video, anywhere in the Paris area.
