The difference between sobadoras and massage therapists:

Sobada, a traditional bodywork practice, gently guides the receiver into a parasympathetic state, fostering space for soul-level healing. Often intertwined with Platicas—vulnerable heart-to-heart conversations—Sobador techniques are passed down ancestrally through families or arise from innate intuition granted by God, safeguarding the practice's sacred nature.

Massage therapy, a modern practice, focuses on relaxation and physical relief. Sessions often involve discussions of health history and symptoms, with techniques learned through formal training and governed by licensing boards. Both paths offer profound avenues for well-being.

To honor consistency across my birth support and bodywork offerings, I've chosen to embrace the teachings of Sobadoras. This path allows me to cultivate spaces for profound spiritual experiences, rather than solely focusing on clinical outcomes. I've always felt a deep resonance with weaving traditional practices into our contemporary lives.
