Meet  Sylviane

"The woman who can take the thorn out of the Lion's paw" 

​

Sylviane’s journey to becoming the expert in healing chronic pain that she is today began when she suffered severe spinal injuries. The diagnosis is bleak: The lumbar spine is fractured with severe nerve compression,  total sensation loss from the waist down to the pelvic floor, loss of bowel and bladder control, and numbness of the left leg and right foot.

Doctors who had missed the injury in the first place! Call for emergency surgery! After much debating and a disapproving medical team, she refuses to go under the knife.

Her decision might have far-reaching implications, she can stay paralysed. She knows it, and her decision is not easy; she weighs her options carefully. But deep down, there is no doubt she trusts in the intimate and uncommon connection she has with her body.

A life dedicated to the practice and teaching of the very demanding and rigorous Iyengar Yoga means that she has developed years of uncommon sensory-motor awareness and intimate knowledge of the body and the Mind. She knows the transformative power of intelligent and conscious presence, which is at the core of her practice. 

​

 It is the lack of cohesive treatment from the prevailing health system that will lead to her most profound transformation. Healing will be a marathon of the mind and body, and massive action will be undertaken. 

​

She decides to look into the psychology behind chronic pain. 

Her research turned to psychosomatics, sensory-motor psychotherapy and hypnotherapy. RTT is the ultimate healing tool that will transform her life. She also looks at pain through the lens of Life evolution, the inevitable universal laws of being in the human form and asks herself “what does Life wants?”. This new approach revolutionises her practice. She  not only heals chronic pain, but she also transforms lives
