I came across SHEN® Therapy when I was a student of Psychotherapy and needed assistance with emotional pain and triggers from the past, which could not be resolved with talking therapy alone.

Over the past 12 years SHEN® has assisted in healing childhood trauma and inter-generational trauma, as well as past injuries which I was not aware had effected me deeply and lead to repetitive injuries. I have come to understand the recovery/healing process as an ongoing deepening of a sense of Self and enjoyment in life and a growing experience of Wholeness, rather than something in me that needs to be changed or cured.

After attending some SHEN® workshops, I decided to train to become a certified SHEN therapist, and I am now able to offer SHEN® as an alternative treatment to talking therapy.

SHEN® adopts a scientifically researched concept of how emotion actually works and merges it with the physics of the biofield (where emotions reside in the body). This allows a powerful process of emotional healing from the inside out, that works with the body’s natural processes rather than a mental/verbal approach.

SHEN® can enhance emotional well-being and balance by resolving anxiety, sleeping problems, stress, panic attacks, migraines, unresolved grief, IBS, eating disorders, reactive depression, sexual and physical abuse, burn-out, phobias,  Post Traumatic Stress and more. SHEN® is also helpful in accelerating physical healing from injuries and operations.

What are SHEN® sessions like?   

We start with a brief check-in, where you share how you feel, any significant dreams and what you like to get out of the session. This will help me determine where in your body to focus my work. Then you lie fully clothed on a special SHEN® “cradle”, close your eyes and relax. There’s no need to move or interact during the therapy session. My hands are gently placed on or around your body in a specific set of “unlocking” sequences that are carefully tailored to your individual needs.

During a session you may feel deeply relaxed or even fall asleep. People sometimes experience mild tingles and/or other physical sensations. Emotion and memories associated with past events may come up. These can range in intensity and I carefully support you through the experience. Whatever healing you and your body is ready for will be facilitated. We finish with a brief check-in before you leave. Generally a series of SHEN sessions is recommended, depending on severity and intensity of symptoms.

Who can benefit from SHEN® ? 

People of any age (including babies and the elderly) can benefit from SHEN®.

What are origins of SHEN® ?

SHEN® is the acronym for Specific Human Emotional Nexus. Richard Pavek, an American  researcher, ascertained and established the physics of the biofield in 1977 and 1978. SHEN® was born, and over the next 12 years he worked out, researched and documented the unique principles of emotional dynamics that guide SHEN® practitioners. Thirty years on, Richard is still actively dedicated to fine-tuning current SHEN® practice.

Testimonials

I am so grateful for the SHEN® sessions we have had, and feel complete with what we have done. It’s felt like a subtle but powerful step forward and I am excited about the future, feeling generally more content, positive and at peace.

As someone with a lifelong tendency to dwell in the thinking mind, I struggled to access emotions in talking therapy. My therapist recommended SHEN and I have had several sessions with Ingrid over the past few years. SHEN with Ingrid has gently helped me to be more present in the body and to feel emotions in the body.
