Further below in this post, you’ll find a listing of Tantra-informed therapists and practitioners who offer massage, bodywork, training and/or coaching services in the St. Louis metropolitan area, Missouri.

In past years, the difference between Tantric bodywork, coaching, and/or training has become somewhat blurred, meaning that Tantric practices tend to use a somatic approach in which education, training, coaching and hands-on bodywork go hand in hand. One could say that Tantric healing has strongly developed as a form of Somatic Sex Coaching and Somatic Sex Education, although sex and sexuality is often only a means to reach Tantric objectives.

Tantra-informed practitioners may use a variety of methods and techniques to support their clients, which may include Tantric Breathwork, Tantra Massage (Yoni Massage or Lingam Massage), elements of Tantric Sex, Tantra Yoga postures and techniques, Tantric Meditation, conscious awareness exercises, Tantric De-Armoring, Tantric rituals and ceremonies, Tantric concepts and theory, and so on.

The work offered commonly uses a trauma-informed and holistic approach, simultaneously addressing the client’s mind, body, energy, spirit and sexuality, with an aim of going beyond the traditional categories of good and bad or wanted and unwanted. Tantra offers a non-dual path to personal growth, which can enable people to embrace their whole being as loveable, worthwhile, sacred, and full of potential to happiness.

Nonetheless, it’s true that an important objective is to clear possible sexual inhibitions and traumas, but not so much as a goal in itself, but rather as a means to support people to completely accept their selves and self-expression in order to having a more authentic and loving way of experiencing themselves and their daily life.

Hence, it’s common that Tantric healing involves a combination of both treatments and training, for instance, Tantric bodywork is used as an opportunity of education, coaching and counseling, supporting receivers in enhancing their lives by not only receiving Tantric treatments but also by supporting them to use Tantric tools, exercises, and techniques in their daily lives.

However, the type or form of Tantric coaching, training, and/or bodywork one receives depends on the individual practitioner, that is, on their lineage, background, training, and on the goal of a session or sequence of sessions.

Some Tantra practitioners initiate sessions that are entirely spiritually and energetically focused, others may be aimed at embracing (sexual) pleasure or increasing body awareness, or perhaps explicitly aimed at emotional and sexual trauma release, or at healing sexual disorders and dysfunctions, just to give some examples.

Tantric coaching, training, or hands-on massage, bodywork, and yogic sessions may be offered to individuals, couples or groups in the form of workshops, classes, courses, or treatments, and depending on the work that needs to be done offerings may be online or live in-person, or a combination thereof.
