MANUAL THERAPY – Louise Chardon
« I propose through touch, body awareness, somatic movement and dialogue, an accompaniment to body-mind integration, with the intention to generate a feeling of communion with our incarnated life. A way to gently ground back into the self, to re-experience the integration of sensations, feelings, mind, spirit and soul, which are ours by nature. During our encounter, I will accompany you in awaking awareness in yourself through focused touch, conscious breathing, guided imaginary and sentient movement, allowing the innate cellular intelligence to manifest itself… a pathway towards trust, wisdom and fulfilled incarnation. » Louise Chardon
After a long and intense professional career as a dancer and performer, Louise Chardon develops further her life path through somatic practices enhancing spiritual growth and self-inquiry. For more than 30 years, she dedicates herself to the study of being (in) motion. She specialized in listening to the profound sensitivity of the self and how our subconscious manifests into our embodied nature. She mainly applies her researches to her visual and performative art and shares it through her pedagogic and therapeutic approaches which she defines as Embodied Philosophy & Energetic Physiology.
Louise is a certified Body-Mind Centering® Practitioner. She embodies Qi Gong, Tuina, Biodynamic Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Feldenkrais, Alexander Technique, Fascia Therapy, Authentic Movement and Yoga for more than 20 years.

Testimonies:
” There´s a way of moving that reminds one of the curves in trees, animals. Of the ocean, fire and patterns in stones. Louise´s teachings, art, hands on work, communicates about those sequences and I experience them as intelligence operaring. They are reliable, trustworthy and thus welcomed with joy and care. From that established loving relation, deeply inspiring contents arise, they are to be followed, and when I do, life becomes meaningful to me.” Christine R.
“Symbolically comparing the body to the river of life, Louise listens at the source, explores the deepest inner lakes and navigates the great rivers along their many beds, currents and branches. In essence, she frees connections, opens forgotten channels and creates new landscapes in existing space, through which the river can flow, purify and revitalise itself. Each time, the intelligence of her work has a powerful, renewing impact, both physically and visually.” Peter
“A hands-on session with Lou feels like being touched by a river of colours. Beams of light enter your crescent currents and curvatures, gently guiding you into a harmonising universe – one that is no greater than your own inner peaceful self. Lou brings deep knowledge and sensitivity to the body and self, intertwined with the tides of the earth. I highly recommend this experience to any curious soul or searching body(parts) ready to sense, release, and realign.” Christine S.
“After a manual therapy session with Lou I feel like I am reborn. With her intuitive touch and deep knowledge of all the bones, organs, hormone glands and tissue of the human body, she manages to re-balance my body, to dissolve energy blockages and let the energy flow, to calm the nervous system and relax the veins. It is absolutely bliss to be under her hands for a treatment.” Vera
“Louise’s hands on treatments are magic. She makes me discover muscles and movements that I have never felt before. It has changed my posture and life! I love it!” Helena
“What Louise does , I don’t know how she does it , she draws my whole being into a space of silence and listening , by her own listening , not only through her gracious hands, for these hands extend into her own body as well as mine, as if they enter into my nerve endings, like peacemakers.” Wilhelm
