Watsu®: Aquatic Bodywork and Therapy with Hilary Marshall | Ep. 39

On The Blue Couch Podcast

“Imagine feeling weightless, flexible, supported and comfortable, completely relaxed and your body is exactly where it wants to be. Your mind is quiet and calm. ”

— Hilary Marshall

Hilary Marshal, LMT and Watsu and WaterDance practitioner shares her experience of providing this “water and shiatsu,” aquatic and body-work therapy. I was fortunate enough to have met Hilary over a year ago when I had my first Watsu session with her. Having had a positive and nervous system calming experience, I wanted to share this therapy with others. Hilary goes into depth about everything from what clients may experience during a session to the healing benefits of this therapy.

Watsu can calm the nervous system, bringing about a sense of well being and help with general anxiety, traumatic stress and PTSD. Watsu is sometimes recommended as an adjunct therapy to help process trauma, in conjunction and collaboration with a psychotherapist.
