FASCIA THERAPIST . LIFESTYLE COACH

Ellen Rabaey

Fascia
therapy

Listen to your body. Feel who lives there.

As a fascia therapist, I work with people who are stuck in stress, overstimulation, physical complaints or inner turmoil.
Not just through talking, but through the body as an entrance.
Fascia — the connective tissue that connects everything in your body — reacts sensitively to stress and emotional distress.

It tenses, hardens, and loses its mobility. Often faster than your mind realizes. In my work, I listen to these layers in words. To what the body has been telling you for a long time. Fascia therapy is therefore not about "doing" the body, but about working with it. Gentle, precise, and present.

Meer dan een techniek

Ik ben naast fasciatherapeut ook levensstijlcoach. Ik kijk niet alleen naar wat er in je lichaam gebeurt, maar ook naar hoe je context: je ritme, je omgeving, je adem, je slaap, je voeding, je draaglast, je ruimte.

Levensstijl is vaak de bodem waarop herstel mogelijk wordt. Daarom wordt dit ook meegenomen in de persoonlijk afgestemde sessies.

Ik heb me daarnaast verdiept in Internal Family Systems (IFS), een model dat helpt begrijpen hoe innerlijke delen ontstaan wanneer we lange tijd hebben moeten overleven. Het helpt om zachter te kijken naar jezelf en meer ruimte te maken voor wat vastzit.

Deze combinatie maakt mijn werk lichaamsgericht, innerlijk verdiepend en wetenschappelijk onderbouwd.

In de mindful yogalessen die ik geeft deel ik deze inzichten en zet ze om in beweging. Hetzelfde gebeurt tijdens de workshops, waar ik de theorie omzet in de praktijk. Want daar gebeurt de verandering.

You can experience it like this:

I work gently, body-focused, and attuned. I place my hands gently on your body and listen. Non-invasive, non-forceful, listening and inviting.

The power lies in gentleness. Slowing down as therapy. Often, recovery doesn't begin with doing, but with sinking. And sinking is already quite a challenge! I especially want to support your own self-healing, because your body often already knows what it needs. My role is to reconnect you with your own intelligence and help remove the barriers that stand in your way.

Because I believe that therapy isn't about the method...but about the person carrying it. What's central to me is listening—not just to what you're saying, but to who you are behind the story. People often have a lot of explanations, analyses, and worries...but they've forgotten how to feel. I want to sit beside you in what's difficult. You don't have to do it alone. You don't have to explain, prove, or "be better" first. You can simply be human here—with everything that still feels uncertain, vulnerable, or tired. I'll walk with you, at your own pace. Not to rescue, but to carry where things get tough. Not to lead, but to be by your side as long as you need me.
