Hey Bodyworkers - Eddie Ulm here.
It’s been a tough year...a difficult one for us as practitioners.
We’ve had to persevere in a touch-deprived setting with stringent limitations on our work, with some therapists even being deemed non-essential - while at the same time, engaging in the process of life-saving public health initiatives.
A lot of bodyworkers have invested in themselves & their education & are faced with uncertainty as to what the definition of their field even is.
Let it be known - We are medical professionals.
We have a unique position of mediators of the mind-body experience.
As therapists, we need the ability to specialize in our field, speak to the work we do & be able to understand trauma in the realm of neurobiology so we can rise to the increasing levels of touch deprivation that our society will face this year.
With this in mind, I would like to proudly introduce:
The "Science of Touch Membership"
My learning platform & community for massage therapists & bodyworkers.
The SOT membership is a resource that will give you the tools as a bodyworker to meet the challenges ahead with grace & ease, and to serve your clients on a far deeper level than any massage school will teach you.
"Because of Covid, I was unable to attend a Hands-On trauma touch therapy course in Colorado. I was disappointed, but by happenstance I came across Edward's course that I could do remotely. It was a blessing to be able to still fulfil my yearning for knowledge related to trauma, the nervous system, and touch therapy."
---------------------
“One of the best investments I made during the last year. This is a deep dive for bodyworkers: what thoughtful practitioners wish they had learned in school.”
"Ed has a vast amount of knowledge and the language needed to explain it, supported by the skill to show it. A great facilitator who goes the extra mile for his participants."
-------------------------------------------
“I signed up for this membership on a whim last year and I'm so glad I did! Within Edward’s course I’ve found tangible applications for abstract concepts in my university Psych courses, as well as practices that have directly benefited my clients. He’s bridged a major gap in the world of touch therapy with his trauma-informed approach. 10/10”
What's Inside:
Already inside the platform, we've developed a strong Level 1 Foundational Course on the psychological & scientific basis for touch in trauma treatment, with topics including:
- How Touch Develops Us
- Somatic Approaches to Working with Trauma

- Power Differential & Conscious/Unconscious Touch Communication

and many more...
We took things up a notch in the Level 2 "Trauma Informed Bodyworker" training, as we dive deep into the behaviour of the nervous system and working with various theory
& praxis to engage your client’s recovery in an educated way.
In Level 2, you will learn about:
- Neuroception
- The Vagus Nerve & Emotion
- The Triune Brain: Fact & Fiction
- Motor Control

& many more!
In Level 3 we expanded into further psychophysiological concepts aimed to help you
maximize your functional working knowledge of the nervous system.
This material will give you autonomy in your practice & be able to shape it in the way you want.
Level 3 includes topics like:
- Polyvagal Theory

if you are one of the following:
- A Therapist currently completing their touch education
- A Bodyworker with 1 to 4 years experience in the field
- A Practitioner who wishes to incorporate the science of touch in a trauma-informed way
No matter your educational background, these teachings will be the thing that ties your learnings together & transforms your practice, allowing you to double the value you offer clients, while working with and speaking confidently to trauma.
Community & Guest Experts
Because trauma is ubiquitous, it’s already present in the treatment room & we need to have a common ground in understanding how to work. For this reason, we need a strong, united community - and this membership is THAT international bodyworker community.
With the built-in community area inside & live group Q&A’s, together we learn, grow and
co-elevate each other as a single movement.
Every month, we have member-exclusive interviews with industry leaders & professionals that are making this field meaningful, so you can learn first-hand from them & ask questions.
Industry guests in our first term included:
- Tiffany Field
Touch Research expert and professor
- Jill Miller
Founder of Tune Up Fitness and published fascia author
- Philip Shepherd
Embodiment expert and bestselling author
- Dr. David Berceli
Therapist and Creator of Trauma & Tension Release Exercise (TRE)
These interviews are available for you to watch inside the membership right away, and we have more amazing live guest experts lined up for 2022!
Live Bodywork Demos
In 2021, for the first time ever I began including a monthly LIVE bodywork demo, where I
showcase the trauma-informed techniques taught in the membership.
These interactive live demos will give you the opportunity to learn hands-on techniques that you can implement on the treatment table with your clients immediately.
These past demos are available to watch right away inside the membership
