Grounding Psoas Bodywork

Megan Grandinetti learned Ayurvedic massage in India, and has been a practitioner of bodywork since 2017, alongside her yoga teaching practice. Megan has also been studying the psoas for many years in her own body, in her students' bodies, and with her mentor, Liz Koch. Megan completed a course with Liz in 2024 that was a deep dive into the psoas, a part of our body that some deem to be the "messenger of the soul." It is the connector of our heart to our feet, our place of knowing to our place of moving forward in life. Megan offers what she calls "Grounding Psoas Bodywork" sessions that combine her keen eye for movement, her psoas-savvy awareness, and her healing touch.

What to expect: You will come to Sattva fully clothed, and you will work largely on a yoga mat on the ground. Megan will guide you in a few relaxing poses on your mat, and may ask you to do some simple movement exercises, with a strong focus on breath and micro-movements that can bring both awareness and relief to your body. Megan will also use her hands and feet to help guide and release the body's tension, from the head all the way to the feet. Megan will not manually release the psoas--this can be traumatizing for the psoas and the nervous system--but she will release the rest of the body to allow the psoas to rest and to allow the feet to touch the ground more fully.
