Ketu Bø Bodywork Therapy for Healing, Personal Development and Creating Meaning and Purpose Door diepe sensitieve aanraking werken we aan de oorzaak van de pijn.

Lichaamsgeoriënteerde therapie is een proces dat de intieme relatie tussen het menselijk lichaam en het psychisch welbevinden erkent. In het proces van de therapie wordt de cliënt uitgenodigd, om oude overtuigingen en conclusies los te laten en steeds meer te worden, wie hij/zij in wezen is. Waar negatieve patronen, blokkades of andere gebeurtenissen (zoals trauma, relatiecrisis, ziekte en/of verlieservaring) in de weg staan en het gezonde emotionele evenwicht stoort, helpt de therapie om (weer) vertrouwen in eigen kwaliteiten, ervaringen en gevoelens te hebben. Dit creëert ruimte om nieuwe vaardigheden te leren en betere denkwijzen aan te nemen. Hierdoor ben je meer in staat keuzes te maken en acties te ondernemen die jouw doelen verwezenlijken. MER (Myofascial Energetic Release) is een vorm van diepe weefselmassage die werkt met de myo- (spieren) en fascia (bindweefsel). Een deel van de behandeling kan ook adem-werk, joint release, geassisteerde stretches en emotioneel werk omvatten. Als de verkrampte spieren en het bindweefsel ontspant, kijken wij ook naar de verschillende factoren die de spasmes veroorzaken, zoals emotionele repressie, negatieve overtuigingen en disfunctionele gewoontes en gedrag. Meer kennis opdoen is een belangrijk onderdeel van het genezen van chronische pijn. De effecten zijn divers. Spanning in lichaam en geest wordt losgelaten. Je zult minder last hebben van lichaamspijn veroorzaakt door verkramping en een verkeerde houding. Door meer in contact te komen met je lichaam ontstaat een groter lichaamsbewustzijn. Daardoor kan je beter je eigen emoties waarnemen en je eigen energie beheren. Hedendaagse wetenschappelijke inzichten rondom hersenontwikkeling en ontwikkelingspsychologie bevestigen het verband tussen lichaamsbewustzijn en emotionele welzijn.

What if that tightness in your chest isn’t physical at all, but a story your body never got to finish?

When children grow up in stress or unsafe environments, their bodies adapt by creating protective tension, known as bracing patterns. Fascia tightens, shortens, and thickens to shield them from overwhelming feelings.

The thing is… these patterns don’t just disappear. They can follow us into adulthood, showing up as chronic tightness, restricted movement, or postural habits that silently echo our past.

The good news? With awareness - through breathwork, bodywork and mindful movement - fascia can finally let go. You can release long-held protections and open space for new ways of living and feeling free.

👉 Have you noticed patterns in your body that feel “stuck”?

✨ Ever noticed how sometimes after deep bodywork you feel more alive?
That’s the moment when the tension you’ve been holding quietly in the background starts to melt away. Energy that was once tied up in effort is suddenly free - for movement, creativity, and presence.

💡 It’s about feeling deeply relaxed and tapping into vitality that has always been within you.

👉 Have you ever walked out of a session feeling more awake to life?

The psoas is one of the deepest muscles in your body - and one of the most fascinating.

👉 It connects your spine, pelvis, hips, diaphragm, and legs, making it essential for posture and movement.
👉 It also plays a central role in breathing, since it links directly to the diaphragm.
👉 On an emotional level, the psoas responds to stress and fear - it’s often activated in the body’s “fight, flight, or freeze” response.

✨ When the psoas is tight, we may experience:
• Lower back or hip pain
• Shallow breathing
• Feeling restless or anxious

✨ When the psoas is released and balanced, we can feel:
• Grounded and stable
• Open, full breathing
• A sense of calm and ease in the whole body

This is why it’s often called the “muscle of the soul.” It connects body, breath, and emotion in a way no other muscle does.

🌿 We’ll be exploring the psoas in depth during our MER Centering training in Belgium, Nov 3–8, 2025 - learning hands-on ways to release and restore balance in this powerful area.

Why does lower back pain keep coming back? 🤔
Sometimes the real culprits aren’t where you expect them.

✅ Imbalances in the pelvis can change how your spine carries weight.
✅ A shortened psoas can quietly pull you into discomfort.
✅ And fascia restrictions may limit movement and create hidden tension.

When we look beyond the surface, we begin to understand the deeper patterns behind back pain.

Curious to uncover what’s really behind back pain? 🔍

Join us this 3 – 8 November 2025 at Voel van Binnenuit, Belgium and let’s explore, release, and recharge - body, mind, and soul!

It’s not unusual to feel a wave of tiredness after Myofascial Energetic Release.
That’s not a bad sign - it’s actually your system shifting gears:

🌿 From fight-or-flight into rest-and-digest
🌀 Stress hormones like cortisol drop
💫 Feel-good chemistry like oxytocin & endorphins rise
💭 Emotions and unconscious layers may surface, asking for space to integrate

Your body knows what it needs. Often, that’s simply… rest.

Are you slouching, tilting to one side, or sitting tall and balanced?
Your pelvis sets the tone for all of it.

✨ When your pelvis is aligned → your spine stacks naturally, your breath flows with ease, and movement feels lighter.

✨ When it’s off → the whole body compensates, often leading to stiffness or pain.

🌿 Try this simple check-in:
Gently adjust your pelvis into a neutral position… notice how your back, shoulders, and even your breath shift.

💬 What shifted for you when you adjusted your posture?

💧 We’re made of water and when we remember that, everything changes.

In December’s Fluid Body module of Myofascial Energetic Release, we’ll explore how simple rocking and wave-like movements can ease the grip of stress, soften the joints, and bring us back to a calmer, more natural rhythm.

For practitioners, it’s a beautiful way to support your clients between deeper techniques, giving the body time to settle and integrate. And the best part? It feels nourishing both to receive and to share.

Here’s something amazing: fascia isn’t just wrapping around your muscles. It’s alive. It actually helps move water and nutrients between your cells.

Think of it as your body’s inner river system - keeping everything connected and nourished.

When fascia is free and hydrated, you feel light, open, and energized. When it gets tight or dry, life feels a little heavier - stiff shoulders, aching hips, shallow breath.

That’s why stretching, bodywork, or even a good shake can feel so refreshing: you’re giving your fascia the chance to flow again.

💬 Did you ever feel that “ahhh” moment when your whole body suddenly feels lighter? That’s your fascia smiling.

So many of us carry hidden tension in the pelvis. It’s where our instincts, fears, and desires live - and often, it’s where we’ve learned to hold back. Over time, this holding shapes the way we stand, walk, even feel.

In November, we’ll work with the pelvis in a safe and supportive way, giving it space to breathe again. When this area softens, the whole body feels lighter, freer, more alive. ✨

The pelvis is often a “touchy” place - not just physically, but emotionally too. It’s where many of us carry 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 that quietly shape how we breathe and move.

When this area is met with 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥, 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧, something shifts. By tuning into your 𝑓𝑒𝑙𝑡 𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑠𝑒 - that gentle inner awareness of what’s happening in your body - you can begin to notice the subtle restrictions, soften the holding, and let your breath flow more freely.

This isn’t about forcing change. It’s about listening, feeling, and allowing space for release. The pelvis becomes more than structure - it becomes a gateway to 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟.

💭 What do you sense when you bring gentle awareness to your pelvis right now?

Have you ever noticed how everything in your body feels connected? When the pelvis tilts or tightens, suddenly your back, hips, even your breath can feel different. It really is the quiet architect that holds us together.

In my own work, I’ve seen how much tension and unspoken emotion can hide here. Releasing it often brings not just freedom of movement, but a deep sigh of relief - like finally letting go of something heavy.

This is exactly what we’ll explore in the upcoming MER Training in Belgium (Nov 3–8, 2025) - learning how to bring balance and release to this sensitive, powerful part of the body.
Join us: https://bodyworkscandinavia.com/mer-modules/centering/

But for now, I’m curious:
💬 When was the last time you noticed tension in your hips or lower back?
