Re~Membering is an invitation to the fragmented and scattered parts of who we are, that sever themselves from the "whole" during a traumatic experience, to return and be re~membered to the home of our body.

We are born feeling creatures. When we experience a traumatic event it impacts our body as an overwhelming feeling, that if we do not have the tools to release is absorbed into the tissues, nervous system and cellular memory of our body.

So often in our lives, we can find ourselves repeating patterns. They may be patterns of relationships, patterns of self-destruction and lack of self-worth, they may be patterns of depression and anxiety.

And no matter how much counselling we have and put the past and traumatic events into perspective from a place of intellect, we cannot seem to be able to shift a repetitive loop in our life experience.

This is simply because our body is still in the FELT space of experiencing the trauma as present rather than past. Our dominant feeling reaches out into the external world for experiences and situations that will match, feed the feeling and keep our body and ourselves wrapped up in the emotions and stories of the past.

Re ~ Membering

Re ~ Membering is a deep listening of the body that offers our body a voice to express all that felt too much, too fast, too painful at the time of the traumatic event. In the felt sensation of being met by another’s presence, the body releases with the aid of touch that which keeps it suspended in time. The breath that could not be accessed is given space to re-attune to it’s natural rhythm. Tension in the tissues and muscles begins to soften. The stored energy of suppressed emotions held in cellular memory are gently released.

Internal space is accessed and felt. Scattered parts of self re~member themselves as part of a whole entity.

Trauma bodywork is an essential part of bringing ourselves back into the present.

Without attending to our body, it continues to feel the past as “happening” rather than “happened” and will seek to source people and events that affirm it’s traumatised perspective of life, relationships and self.

This work is a trauma-informed somatic approach that supports nervous system regulation, emotional integration, and reconnection to the body.

Sessions are grounded in presence, attunement, and somatic awareness, supporting the gradual unwinding of held patterns in a safe and contained way.

The focus is not on re-living experience, but on supporting the body’s capacity to process, regulate, and integrate at a pace that feels safe and sustainable.

Re~Membering creates space for:

Trauma bodywork creates a nourishing held container with the respect for the body’s pace rather than from an urgency “to fix” or push for emotional release.
 
It supports the healing of the nervous system through safe, compassionate touch, enabling each individual to reconnect to their bodies, restore a sense of safety, process effects of trauma, reduce chronic stress and anxiety, rebuild healthy boundaries and develop greater self trust, resilience and capacity for connection. 
 
It offers the the opportunity to be met emotionally, physically and spiritually in a way that was not available on the impact of the traumatic events.
 
The “wounded self” that disassociated or created “guards”  begins to feel at ease within skin and soften down and into the body,  quietening obsessive thoughts of the mind.
 
The inner landscape as a centered resource begins to feel more accessible as a space of agency and inner calm where present clear choices can be formed and acted upon.
 
Self assurance develops to safely and joyfully explore in the world, re-connecting firstly to self and then to others.
 
It is essential that everything shared between us is a felt body experience and integrated, to ground the realignment into your life as a new reality.   
 
This is ensured by offering new suggestions and simple methods to play with in between your time with me.
 
The teachings and sessions are individualised to you, so you feel empowered to take our work together into your life and relationships.
 
Every session is guided by consent, choice and the unique pace of each individual.

As a unique body trauma medicine the following symptoms have been supported :

How the sessions are held:

The sessions are co-created to meet each individual within the discomfort and limitations currently suppressing well being and invite space for you to come home to the physical sense and sensual aliveness of your body.

Each session is guided by the body’s pace and capacity in the moment.

The work is relational, grounded, and trauma-informed, with attention to safety, consent, and integration throughout.

There is no expectation to go beyond what feels appropriate or resourced. The emphasis is always on working with the nervous system rather than against it.

Testimonials & Praise

"I started my journey into Tantra earlier this year with Michelle and I can confidently say it's been one of the best things I've ever done for my body, soul and mind. Meeting Michelle for the first time was wonderful because she instantly made me feel at ease with her calm, caring and loving personality, allowing me to trust her wholeheartedly right away, despite any of my own anticipations. Michelle has a true passion for tantric teachings as it's the way she lives her own life, she lives and breathes it, so all the work that you do with her is coming from the most genuine place. I don't think I've met a purer, kinder and more honest soul than Michelle's, and I would like to thank her sincerely for assisting me in finding my own balance again, it has really changed my life."
Conor - Brighton
he journey with Michelle was a true liberation of my soul. With each session, my heart and womb felt safer and finally truly at home in my body. The soles of my feet could really feel the sensation of earth for the first time in my life. This journey has freed me from the shame of my own existence and now I can enjoy being a sensual, sexual being, allowing myself abundance & happiness and my creativity to be lived. I don´t feel that words could describe the beauty of this healing journey in all its depth, though, with all my heart I am grateful that I have met Michelle. She is an amazing artist of this practice, a strong guide and deeply connected to the spiritual world. A beaming heart.
Sylvia - Brighton
“Following the end of a relationship, the commencement of the menopause and then the loss of my darling mum all within one year, I was feeling physically and emotionally starved and lifeless. I felt as though I wasn’t really living, just existing and whilst I knew this was no way to go on, I also knew that I needed some support to help me to reconnect with my sense of self. For this reason I contacted Michelle with whom I have now experienced 3 tantra massages, 2 body bliss workshops and I also participated in the truly delicious, yoni egg course.

Well what can I say? In unique and different ways these experiences have been deeply healing, transformative, freeing and nurturing. In just a few months I feel as though I have gone from being like a shell, a shadow, to becoming much more a fully sensual, sexual and vibrant woman. I have so much gratitude to Michelle for helping me on this journey and I feel that I once more step out with confidence, a smile on my face and a sparkle in my eyes.

Before I met Michelle I really had no idea what to expect, just a sense that this was the right path for me to be taking at this stage in my life and I would urge anyone with even the vaguest interest in tantra healing, to follow your heart and step in. With Michelle you will be in very safe and skilled hands. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Michelle 🙏”
Jenny - Brighton
I first began looking into tantric/yoni massage as a way of healing sexual trauma about a year ago. I had experienced sexual trauma as a child and then throughout my teen years fell into self destructive behaviour when it came to men. I entered emotionally abusive relationships and completely disconnected with my body.
Sex was painful, not pleasurable, and I was often triggered by touch. Sex was a chore for me that I felt I had to do.
I was naturally anxious and afraid to contact and reach out to Michelle but from the very beginning she understood that fear. She spoke to me on the phone and gave me all the power to decide if I trusted her. My fears were reassured and as soon as I met Michelle I felt at ease. To experience entire touch of the body without it being sexual and to have it only be about me, me coming home to my body, and me reconnecting to my body in a way that was completely on my own terms. Even after the very first session I felt more confident and more relaxed. When I got home I sat with my body and actually felt some flicker of connection to my yoni. I could hear her, for the first time ever. I felt her pain and was finally able to begin to release it. I had been focusing so much on therapy of the mind that I had neglected to remember the therapy that my body needed.

Michelle supported me and gave me advice, any question I had I knew it would be met without judgement and with answers full of wisdom. I have a long way to go until I am completely healed but meeting with Michelle and having my healing sessions with her have been the first real steps towards a place where I finally feel completely safe and connected.

I cannot thank Michelle enough for her support, she is not only a healer but a safe guide that is always there to hear your pain/success/happiness, whatever you want to share. It has been life changing!’
Greta - Wiltshire
“At the start of the year I was completely heart broken. I felt like I couldn’t tell anyone how distraught I really felt but I remembered Michelle, the kind lady who I had met at a yoga class and I got in touch. Thus began my healing tantric journey with her for six months. Michelle gave me a safe space where I could express exactly how I felt, which was such a relief. If I needed to cry I cried. If I needed to say nothing and just be massaged it was like she instinctively new and I felt no pressure to do otherwise. Michelle’s support truly was healing for me and it helped me navigate a very painful period of my life.”
Jane - London
“Hi Michelle, I’ve been meaning to contact you for a while to share my good news. I have a lover, and we’ve been making wonderful, natural, pleasurable love and intimacy together for the past few months. I never considered that this wondrous joy was possible for me. I really want to thank you for the help that you’ve given me to open myself up to an awareness of sensual pleasure much less shackled by conventional learning.

I give you my heartfelt thanks. You’re a wonderful person.”
Gavin - East Sussex
“I was very nervous before my first session & not sure how safe I’d be but that all evaporated as soon as I met Michelle. Having survived sexual abuse in childhood & young adulthood, I’d always felt a sense of shame about my body & was unable to feel safe within it.

Michelle’s loving & accepting manner helped me to start to leave the past behind. During my yoni massage, she enabled me to feel safe, protected & accepted & I was able to allow painful emotions to be expressed & allow the shame that I’d held around sexuality & pleasure to drop away. I am now left with more of a sense of ownership around my own body, I feel safer within it & overall I feel lighter, more grounded & with a newly found sensitivity & sense of aliveness that I can’t remember ever feeling before. Thank you so much Michelle.”
Jules - Sussex
“Why did I book a session? Well, to be blunt, I have in the past felt like a slave to my libido. And hearing about the healing power of tantra, I investigated Michelle’s website. When I met Michelle, I was immediately impressed by her positive reassuring manner. The massage was at first very relaxing, with the sensation of hot oils on the skin being a very pleasant one. By the end of the massage I had melted and lost myself in Michelle’s touch. Since the massage, I have found a renewed energy and a calmness that was previously elusive. I have already booked another session, and would urge anyone who is considering tantra to not hesitate, as the experience will be one that will stay with you.”
Steve - London
“That moment you realise that someone’s work needs to be experienced because you are struggling to put into words just how grateful you are for having had the chance to work with them…. This week I worked with the profoundly gentle and yet incredibly boundaried Michelle Roberton in the form of a sacred tantric massage. When I say boundaried, I simply see a reflection of someone in Michelle who works only from the deepest purity and heart of the calling of her work.
My journey to full embodiment has been a long one and with the loving and expert guidance of Michelle – this week I felt myself viscerally and literally land back into my body. I had the sensation of giving birth to myself – my soul finally feeling safe to come into my womb centre.
I am sharing for two reasons…. firstly, because I believe this work to be beautiful, sacred and so utterly necessary for anyone who has ever felt any shame or disconnection from their body. It is time that every young girl, teen and woman knew that her body was a sacred and divine vessel. When you feel this and you know it, you understand that you cannot possibly treat it any other way. I am not excluding men, simply sharing from the experience of being a woman. Secondly, I am sharing because I didn’t undertake this work with Michelle lightly. I tend to carve out my own road for healing and empowerment. Yet I knew I wanted help and I knew that I would be held in an extraordinarily safe way. Coming into my body has been fraught with fear and trepidation for most of my life and so feeling safe and held was paramount. Thank you Michelle Roberton for the gift that you are, and the heart, purity and integrity that you hold with your work”
Nikki - Brighton
“I’ve had problems for a very long time, my body had completely shutdown. I had developed vaginasium following a very unhappy incident in my past at the hands of my first partner. I felt completely disconnected from my body, I felt great shame and incomplete as a woman. These feelings have heightened my anxiety and depression.
I have a great counsellor (who I have been seeing since 2014) who is helping me process my past. I needed help to reconnect to my body. To find and embrace the sexual being I could be, who I have never even contemplated I could be.
I feel that with my counsellor I am doing amazing healing of my mind and Michelle is doing amazing healing of my body and bringing my mind and body together again, as well as opening the door in my emotions that I had kept locked away – which I could then discuss with my counsellor. It’s working out incredibly well.
Michelle through her amazing skills and endless understanding has helped me begin my journey to reconnect with my body, femininity and power. I never expected to make such amazing progress in such a short while (a mere six Weeks). The appointments with Michelle are so relaxing. She is fantastic to talk to and is always ready with advice to help.
I always feel very relaxed and positive after my appointments which helps my mental health, You also have home studies which help continue your healing process in the comfort of your own home.
I would absolutely recommend Michelle to anyone who has issues with intimacy. I feel that with the continued support of Michelle and my counsellor I have fully rounded support. I do feel strongly that both girls and boys as part of their sex education should be taught about the pleasures of sex and relationships as well as the pure mechanics. I wish I had know then what I am beginning to know now.”
Heather - East Sussex
“Thank you so much for the beautiful treatment yesterday. I must admit that I was nervous walking into my first Tantric Massage experience however your professionalism and tenderness put me at complete ease. Everything you did was not only wonderfully sensual and relaxing but also made me aware of parts of my body that I had never considered before. After several attempts at a multitude of different therapies I can honestly say that Tantric and the way you have introduced it to me has by far had the most profound effect. I am so looking forward to continuing on this journey with you. Thank you again for introducing me to Tantric Massage and for re-introducing me to my body.”
Kayleigh - Brighton
“Early this year, I was experiencing relationship issues. For some reason I was drawn to Michelle’s website and with no real understanding of what Tantra was or could do for me, I arranged an appointment. Arriving for my first appointment I felt nervous, apprehensive and curious of what I was doing and what difference Michelle and her Tantric teaching’s could make? (wow they have, but more of that later.) The first thing which struck me, was Michelle’s ability to put me at ease and her focus on listening to understand, to understand you as an individual and to understand how she can help you to help yourself, address and over come your individual challenges through Tantric touch and teachings. Michelle’s touch and massage is one of beauty and warmth which released sensations and feelings within me, the like of which I have never experienced before. Quite simply I felt at peace within myself. Michelle’s philosophy is to share Tantra and for you to experience its beauty and learn how to maintain that for yourself.

My first teaching’s have focused on how to breathe differently whilst focusing on key areas of my body, and for me, I have already experienced repeatedly the mind calming and body sensations which Michelle initially opened with her touch and understanding. I am still going through a time of great personal change. However through beginning to understand how Tantra can help and calm me, week by week, I am improving my being and understanding of myself.”
