ENERGETIC BELLY MASSAGE TO SOOTHE EMOTIONS AND SUPPORT DIGESTION.
What is Chi Nei Tsang?
Chi Nei Tsang is a therapeutic belly massage rooted in the Chinese Taoist tradition. Its name means "working the internal energy of the organs". It's a gentle, yet deep approach that helps release both physical and emotional tensions stored in the abdominal area, the true center of our emotions, often referred to as our "second brain".
In my practice, I use Chi Nei Tsang to help soften emotional knots and ease what may manifest as stress, anxiety, digestive discomfort, or persistent fatigue. This relaxing treatment supports a smoother flow of vital energy and helps restore inner balance.
The benefits of chi nei tsang
This massage works gently and deeply on the internal organs, as well as the digestive, lymphatic and nervous systems.
On a physical level, it can help to :
Activate the lymphatic system and support the natural detoxification processes of the body
Improve digestion and ease abdominal discomfort
Soothe women's health concerns (cramps, painful periods, premenstrual syndrome)
Support the immune system
On an emotional level, Chi Nei Tsang helps to :
Release emotions stored in the belly, often linked to stress, anxiety or past experiences
Improve sleep, reduce fatigue and support overall vitality
Soothe the mind and encourage an inner state of calm and clarity
Deeply relax both body and mind
This very gentle treatment is also suitable for children, especially to help them manage their emotions and body tensions, and it works very well with hypnosis sessions.
What a CHI NEI TSANG belly MASSAGE looks like
A therapeutic massage treatment lasts about 1h
(1h15 minutes for the first session)
The initial conversation
≈ 10 to 15 minutes
We discuss the reason for your visit and your current needs.
This space for discussion helps me to better understand your physical and emotional state, so that I can tailor the treatment to what your body really needs.
I also explain how the session will work and answer any questions you may have.
The massage phase
≈ 45 minutes
You lie down comfortably on the table, fully dressed, with only your belly uncovered.
Using gentle, precise and deep movements, I massage your abdominal area. Depending on your needs, I may also work on your back or chest area.
Throughout the massage, your breathing sets the rhythm, encouraging a deep release of both body and mind.
The integration phase
≈ 5 to 10 minutes
At the end of the treatment, I leave you a few quiet moment so your body can fully integrate the effects of the massage.
This moment of silence helps you to assimilate gently, in calm and presence.
I then return for a short exchange about how you feel and answer any questions before closing the session.
Chi Nei Tsang and hypnosis: a mind-body synergy
Chi Nei Tsang and hypnotherapy naturally complement each other. Hypnosis works on the mind and emotional mechanisms, while belly massage acts directly on the body and cellular memory.
By combining these two approaches, it is possible to relieve stress on multiple levels: mental, emotional and physical. It allows a holistic process that encourages deep release and supports a renewed connection to oneself.
If you'd like to learn more about how I use hypnosis to help with stress or anxiety, you can visit my pages on hypnosis and stress or hypnosis and anxiety.
Hypnosis opens the doors to the unconscious mind. Chi Nei Tsang releases what the body has been holding. Together they lead to a deep transformation.
My background and training in Chi Nei Tsang
I trained at the Vibrens training institute in Geneva, where I learned the foundations of Chi Nei Tsang based on Mantak Chia’s teachings. This practice naturally aligns with my approach to care: connecting body, mind and emotions while respecting each person’s unique rhythm.
I continue to train regularly to deepen my understanding of the body and emotional processes, and to offer ever more comprehensive support.

Frequently asked questions about therapeutic massage
-
Chi Nei Tsang is suitable for anyone wishing to release tension in the belly, relieve stress or restore emotional balance. It is appropriate for both adults and children. For younger clients, I adapt the session to their age and sensitivity, sometimes in combination with a session of hypnosis for children.
-
Unlike a traditional relaxation massage, Chi Nei Tsang works deeply on the internal organs and vital energy (Chi). It is a physical, emotional and energetic approach. The aim is not only to relax, but to release blockages that prevent the body from regaining its natural harmony.
-
Chi Nei Tsang should never be painful. The massage is performed with careful attention and respect for the body. Some areas may feel more sensitive, particularly if they hold long-lasting tension, but the touch always remains gentle and kind. We proceed together, at your own pace, in a safe and nurturing environment.
-
Everyone is different. A single session can already bring significant relief, but for more in-depth work, especially on stress or digestion, several sessions spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart are often beneficial. I always discuss this with you at our first appointment, based on your needs and experience. More practical details are available on the sessions and fees page .
-
Yes, and this is an approach I particularly enjoy offering. Therapeutic hypnosis works on thoughts and emotions, while Chi Nei Tsang helps the body release what it holds in memory. Together, the work becomes holistic: mind, body and emotions are rebalanced.
-
Chi Nei Tsang is a gentle practice suitable for most people. However, caution is needed in some cases:
- Acute digestive disorders or abdominal infections
- Severe or unstabilized inflammatory diseases (cancer, active autoimmune disease...)
- Skin infections, open wounds or melanomas in the area to be massaged
- Pregnancy
- Pacemaker or history of cardiac surgery
- History of bypass or recent abdominal surgery (less than 6 months).
- Presence of painful gallstones or kidney stones.
- Fever or extreme fatigue
Before each session, we discuss your state of health to ensure the massage is completely safe and appropriate.
-
Chi Nei Tsang works deeply, both physically and emotionally. It is therefore possible to experience slight fatigue, emotions resurfacing, or new physical sensations (warmth, internal movement, need for rest) in the hours or days following a session. Sometimes, as the digestive system gets back into motion, some persons experience faster transit or more frequent bowel movements.
These reactions are normal and indicate a process of release and harmonization. I usually recommend drinking plenty of water, taking a quiet moment after the session and welcoming these sensations with kindness. They quickly disappear, leaving a sense of lightness and balance.
