The video above is taken from my course Stress Reset and is presented from the perspective of intentional touch (the guided practice rather than direct hands-on work). That said, both ways of receiving Transforming Touch focus on the same points of contact.
Transforming Touch is a treatment modality that follows a specific protocol that creates a milieu of safety where you can begin to feel a difference in your life through subtle, yet profound changes. It is an effective way of facilitating regulation within your nervous system.
Transforming Touch has been profoundly affirming for myself and my clients. It provides a structure that supports body awareness that doesn’t require having words for the experience. It builds capacity for change and self-awareness. It is where I begin with almost all my clients because it is so effective at getting them to their goals.

From Nurturing Resilience…
“Touch, when applied appropriately, safely, and ethically, can be useful to repair attachment ruptures, promoting healthier and more accurate interoception, creating a sense of safety and connectedness, supporting better access to co-regulation and self-regulation, and repairing chronic somatic shame. Touch can help clients to identify and more fully develop appropriate boundaries and to experience a sense of agency when determining how, when, and what type of touch occurs. Touch can, in part, provide what was not received during the early developmental phases, and provide a helpful option for those clients who are open to the use of touch and somatic forms of therapy.” Nurturing Resilience by Kathy L. Kain and Stephen J. Terrell
