After having worked as a human resource manager in aviation for years Tom de Winter studied Authentic Haptonomy and Cranio-Sacral therapy. He uses these approaches in his sessions and workshops to dissolve physical emotions and develop intuition. Tom has a full practice in Amsterdam and Oosterbeek (The Netherlands). His guiding principle is that 'the human body is a fountain of wisdom,' and that 'the freeing of human body senses are essential to healing'.
Tom was officially trained by Drunvalo Melchizedek as a trainer-practitioner in Drunvalo's Sacred Geometry. As a development out of the Flower of Life workshops Tom has designed further workshops of interest to all.
As a body consciousness therapist Tom de Winter also hosts private and group sessions on request. The experience is based on listening to your body through a direct-contact process.
