Work with Aurore Fayolle – Somato-emotional Manual Therapy

In October 2025, I had the pleasure of visually capturing Aurore’s work in her office in Lisle-sur-Tarn.

Somato-emotional Manual Therapy (or Demelt Method) is a gentle, holistic manual treatment method developed by Jean-Michel DEMELT, a physiotherapist in Alsace for 50 years. It is based on the principle that every living being is animated by an energy flow that sustains life and health. Already 5,000 years ago, Chinese medicine had made this discovery and developed acupuncture.

This energy can be blocked by shocks:

Physical: accidents, injuries, overuse, harmful radiation, malnutrition.

Psychological: stress, emotional shocks, personal or professional concerns, current or past emotional wounds.

In both cases, manual palpation through the Demelt Method allows blocked areas to be identified, their origin understood, and, most importantly, released, enabling the person to function with a new positive pattern for their health and well-being.
