SENSORY HOLISTIC TREATMENT
INTENSIVE MASSAGE TRAINING

Vivi l’arte del massaggio SHT.
Per chi desidera vivere il tocco in modo consapevole e approfondirlo – indipendentemente dal fatto che lavori in ambito terapeutico o meno.

Per chi è questo retreat?

Con il metodo Sensory Holistic Treatment (SHT) porti le tue capacità nel lavoro corporeo a un livello più profondo.

Questo training intensivo con il metodo SHT è pensato per chi non vive il tocco solo come tecnica, ma come esperienza consapevole, da sentire, esplorare e approfondire.

È rivolto a:

Terapeuti e operatori del corpo che desiderano ampliare le proprie competenze e integrare nella loro pratica un tocco più presente, percettivo e di qualità.

Persone senza una formazione professionale specifica, ma curiose di riscoprire il sentire, di dare e ricevere un tocco consapevole – indipendentemente dal fatto che massaggino per lavoro o meno.

Esperienze precedenti nel massaggio o nel lavoro corporeo sono utili, ma non indispensabili. Ciò che conta davvero è l’interesse per il sentire, l’ascolto e il dare in modo presente.

Con questo training sviluppi una comprensione profonda di come il tocco agisce tra le persone: in modo chiaro, attento e intuitivo.

IMPARA IL TOCCO

With Stefano Bambagioni, founder of the SHT method

Deeply rooted in the Tuscan Maremma, Stefano’s curiosity led him from the land to the art of touch. With his unique method, “Sensory Holistic Treatment”, he offers people space – space within themselves. So they can rediscover their bodies and find the room for inner transformation. His work is characterized by love, absolutely respectful touch, and a deep calm that creates trust and enables true change. Be inspired by Stefano’s dedication and values – book your spot, discover, and learn the art of deep touch.

This authentic connection will elevate your massage to a level far beyond technique – bringing lasting change to your clients.

WE CONNECT TOUCH WITH DEPTH

In this course, I will share with you a holistic methodology rather than just a simple technique. You will learn to understand the person in their entirety – physical, emotional, and energetic.

In the enchanting setting of the Tuscan Maremma, you will find a place of tranquility and inspiration.

Words from participants

Intensive Massage Training, May 24–31, 2025

Karin Eva Brandt,

Holderbank (CH)

Learning. Laughing. Letting go. Lightness.

I signed up on a whim – and from the very first email contact, I felt welcomed, like being among friends.

The enthusiasm and deep knowledge of Stefano and Silke touched me profoundly. The course gave me precious impulses.

This intense, transformative technique allowed me to experience my space and inner alignment in a completely new way.

During practice and repetition with my colleague, we were guided with so much care and gentleness by Stefano.

The Human Design reading with Silke gave me new and touching insights into myself – a tool I look forward to exploring further with joy.

The atmosphere on site was equally nourishing: cooking together, laughing, eating, spending time on the terrace, or jumping into the cool water – everything felt simply genuine and light. Stefano and Silke run an agriturismo (with wine and olive oil production) far away from the noise of everyday life, in the beautiful Maremma.

Thank you for this special encounter, for the touches that spoke on so many levels – and for your friendship.

Yvonne Wiche Levinsen, Fredrikstad (NOR)

What a deep and touching experience!

The Sensory Holistic Treatment didn’t just move my body – it straightened something within me, released, reminded. This special kind of touch works on a level that words can hardly capture.

I was allowed to lose myself in the method and at the same time arrive fully within myself. The combination of intuition and subtle structure, of mindful presence and embodied knowledge, was truly transformative for me.

In the aftermath – during my ten-day Vipassana meditation, a silent journey inward – it became even clearer to me how deeply SHT works.

I was able to carry so much of it with me. My experience is this: both methods work through the fascia – and it’s precisely this that makes them so deeply emotional. It’s as if they use the body as a key to lovingly release stored experiences, tensions, and stories.

I am so grateful for this experience, for the delicate, trusting space you created – and for the fact that we three are the first SHT students. A beginning full of depth, connection, and joyful anticipation.

Nadine Simon,

Sutz (CH)

A massage course that resonated deeply with me.

Two pages of theory and a few notes were enough – what mattered far more was that we could truly sense and feel the sequences. It was an immersion into a wonderfully sensitive massage method. I am thrilled!

The receiver can simply let go and fully surrender to the touch. Stefano guided us with heart, dedication, and so much patience.

The connection to the person who entrusts themselves to us is the most beautiful thing – and when that connection is there, something magical happens.

What I especially loved:
The combination of the massage course with the personal experience of this unique massage. The spiritual Human Design aspect was the perfect complement to this week and made it truly one of a kind.

What I enjoyed and will miss:
Being together with all of you. The laughter, the delicious meals, the liberating dancing, the joyful singing.

These special highlights are waiting for you

HUMAN DESIGN
READING

Human Design is a unique system that combines astrology, the Chinese I Ching, the Kabbalah, and the Buddhist chakra doctrine. It is your energetic map, giving you a deep understanding of your true self. A Human Design consultation offers you personalized insights into your strengths, potential, and how to make decisions in the way that suits you best. It helps you live authentically, in harmony with what is right for you and your energy.

AUTHENTIC FLAVORS OF THE MAREMMA

We will enjoy a wine tasting at a nearby winery, letting ourselves be enchanted by the unique flavors of Maremma wines. You’ll experience the true taste of organic olive oil produced directly by Stefano and an evening of Tuscan cooking with a traditional dish. These culinary experiences are the perfect complement to the course, offering you an unforgettable, pleasure-filled break.

TIME FOR CONNECTIONS AND EXPLORATIONS

Take the opportunity to find deep inner peace in the heart of the beautiful Maremma. Guided meditations in an inspiring setting will help you feel and strengthen your energy. Explore the picturesque Castiglione della Pescaia with its stunning sea views, or enjoy a walk along the unspoiled beach of Marina di Alberese, where the waves will calm your thoughts and nature will embrace you with its tranquility.

What clients experience

A deep experience on the physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual levels. A journey toward yourself – toward greater self-acceptance and inner freedom. So they can rediscover themselves, accept themselves, and feel loved.

Federica Golino, IT

Dear Stefano, four years ago I had my first treatment with you… It was a unique and special experience. I carried your words with me, and they have resonated over the years, until I returned a few weeks ago. It’s not just a massage, but an experience that helps you reconnect with your body! See you soon.

Chiara Begamo, IT

Hi Stefano, it’s Chiara. Yesterday I had a massage with you… I wanted to tell you that I’ve just come out of the sea, I lay down on the warm sand, and I was overwhelmed by a multitude of sensations that brought me back to what I felt yesterday during the massage: warmth, well-being, being held. It was incredibly beautiful – it felt like dancing with my soul for a while. Thank you.

Caterina Giraldi, IT

Hi Stefano, I had the pleasure of experiencing your hands and your kindness – it was an unexpected journey… I felt as if my chest had opened and I was freed from a cage. Perhaps a sweet melancholy has lingered in me. I hope to return and repeat this beautiful experience. Thank you, Caterina.

Food during the course

Breakfast is included and more than just a meal. It is our conscious beginning to the day. We start without rush. First a coffee or tea in the morning sun, outside in the garden. Then we sit together at the large table.
Lunch and dinner are generally organized by you. How we shape the week, we decide together as a group. We can cook and eat together – everyone brings something, and we share what is there. Everything is possible, nothing is required. If you prefer to eat on your own, that is perfectly fine as well.
The apartments are equipped with a small, simple kitchen – typically Tuscan, authentic, and with everything you need: a stove, a small oven, a fridge… no luxury, but perfectly sufficient to prepare something good for yourself.
During the course, tea, hot water, lemon water, or even a coffee will be available – as well as small snacks: fresh fruit, dried fruit, nuts, and whatever feels good. A simple, nourishing companion for your day.
For a small additional fee, we’ll be happy to stock your fridge before your arrival with some basics for the first day: fresh bread, butter, cheese, coffee, (plant-based) milk, some fruit, some vegetables.
Water, coffee, a few spices, salt, sugar, vinegar, and Stefano’s own organic olive oil are already provided.
