Birth, body, and death — held through attentive bodywork and grounded presence.
Sessions are unhurried and shaped in response to what is present.
Soma Temple
Soma Temple is a quiet practice space for those moving through beginnings, transitions, and endings.
The work offered here is grounded in traditional bodywork lineages, with Thai Yoga Massage as a foundational influence, alongside somatic listening and respect for the body’s own intelligence.
Sessions are not aimed at fixing or directing, but at meeting the body where it is and allowing change to arise through time and presence.

About Yoga Massage
Based on the northern style of traditional Thai Yoga Massage (Nuad Boran), Thai Yoga Bodywork is a sacred healing treatment that integrates traditional Thai medicine, elemental theory, and Buddhist spiritual practices. The first spiritual roots of this ancient system date connect to over 2,500 years ago at the time of Buddha in India, and were carried through the Buddhist teachings into SE Asia. These teachings merged with traditional therapies of the region at that time and because what we now call today “Traditional Thai Medicine.”
Unique from other types of bodywork and massage, Thai Yoga Bodywork also combines rhythmic massage, assisted Yoga poses, acupressure along pathways of movement in the body known as the “Sen,” healing energy work, and meditation.
