The body holds what we have lived —
physically and emotionally —
often longer than we think.
You can be mentally strong
and still your body holds tension.
Body and mind are not separate.
Real change happens
when both work together.
This is where I work.
My work is based on osteopathy,
and extends beyond the physical.
I work with the body, mind and
subconscious patterns stored within.
When everything works together,
the body can reorganise,
the system becomes calmer,
and the mind becomes clearer.
This is the Butterfly Method.
I work one-to-one
when clarity in body and mind matters.
Some come because of a specific concern.
Others come to maintain a high level of function over time.
They are not looking for quick fixes.
They want a body they can rely on
and a mind that stays clear.
1:1 with a small number of clients.
The work is precise, calm and continuous.
In person or online
depending on location and schedule.
English and German.
All work is private and confidential.
Trust and continuity is the foundation.

“Even across continents, something in my brother’s system responded.
It was subtle, but deeply felt.
We both sensed a shift — without needing to explain it.”

“I came into the sessions feeling ungrounded — and left with a deep sense of being rooted again.
Old memories surfaced without needing words.
It felt like something was clearing on a deeper level.
I’m truly grateful.”

“I feel whole again — light, grounded, at ease in my body.
Even my posture shifted.
Something in me reorganised, quietly but profoundly.”

"I have known Barbara both as a student during my days of teaching undergraduates and during the last 20 years when she has been on my courses and in practice with me from time to time.
I have seen Barbara grow in her understanding of the deeper relationship of Osteopathic technique to the inner person at all levels of function and expression.
The 'Butterfly' method is her unique synthesis of all she has learned combined with something that comes from her inner being. I am honoured to be counted as a teacher that has inspired her to look deeper, but in her work now I can safely say that the 'student' has outgrown the 'master'.
The sessions she has given me remotely are as nothing I have ever experienced before in an osteopath's hands. She has an intuitive ability not only to see the focal points needing release but to divine the inner causes that have produced the patterns and at what level they need releasing.
Her work is profound and what she has to offer is safe, very special and life changing.
A truly unique healing experience."
