Oriental Healing
Oriental Healing Practices, in their ancient form and use, are aimed to foster the Homeostatic Process of the living organism and help the body heal itself. Genuine intentions, combined with conscious touch, listening, and intuition, are powerful tools for therapeutic healing work.
The power of gentle and grounding touch has been scientifically proved to bring positive health benefits; While the Zen Shiatsu approach of 'Being with a Partner' by listening to the breath, and the subtle movements, is a gentle, and effective way of healing. read more
Somatic Bodywork
Somatic Bodywork is based on the knowledge of Oriental and Western healing techniques and on the awareness of the different layers of the self, that is Body, Mind, and Spirit. The Word ‘Soma’ refers to the awareness of the body in its wholeness, and to the idea that emotional blockages can also manifest as body conditions and pain. During the session attention is given to foster awareness of the present situation, and the receiver is invited
to be an active listener and observer of the work that is done. read more

I had couple of sessions with Nirmal in Rishikesh, and I really enjoyed it. Nirmal approach is very mindful, gentle and unique. He is playing with different techniques to guide clients in safe space where they can reach healing through state of both, active and passive relaxation.
I really enjoyed the workshop for couples where we practised balancing Yin and Yang energies through body work on the energetic pathways, through conscious touch, and through hearth connection. Thank you Nirmal
Thank you for sharing your gentle, peaceful love of human beings through your "Mindfull and Heart Connection Massage Exchange".

I took part on the "Mindful and Heart Connection Massage Exchange" on the 12th of October. I thought this workshop is a good introduction on how intuitively give and receive a massage establishing a warm connection with the other person using body contact. It is definitely a good skill set to use with friends, family, partners, etc. I went there on my own and I practice with a person I met for first time, still the human connection was good and the workshop went well.

Last month (October 2019), I had the good fortune to experience Nirmal’s skilful touch on two different occasions. First, I took part in a workshop that he delivered to a small group in Dublin. The hands-on massage-exchange workshop (couldn’t resist the pun…) had us practicing Tantsu Yoga in pairs. Nirmal taught us a set of basic and simple to practice techniques that integrated principles from Thai massage and Shiatsu. The workshop was a wonderful and useful way to learn how to give and…receive conscious touch. Nirmal lead the workshop with high levels of skill and attention. As a professional teacher myself (I have been teaching and lecturing for over 25 years) I enjoyed not only the massage exchange itself but also the way that Nirmal has delivered this workshop. He gave the necessary basic structure, paying attention to details and, at the same time, encouraged those who were comfortable to improvise and go with their intuition. My partner enjoyed it so much that she went back to take part in another workshop with him.
