About Muriel Rochat
Muriel Rochat graduated from the International School of Shiatsu in Carouge in 2001. Alongside her own practice she has followed the teaching of Jörg Schürpf since 2000, first as a student, then as an assistant and, from 2005, as a course organiser. In 2011 she began teaching the foundations of Shen touch in French-speaking Switzerland. She qualified as a Somatic Experiencing practitioner in 2012 and continued her training in embodiment therapies with Raja Selvam (Integral Somatic Psychology) and Sonia Gomes (Soma Embodiment). In 2024 she graduated in yoga therapy from the Shûnyatâ yoga school. At the Shen Touch Academy she combines multidimensional Shen touch with a somatic, psycho-emotional approach to the nervous system and trauma. She co-leads the Shen Master Training, the trauma training and practitioner supervisions with Jörg Schürpf, and teaches the adaptation and therapeutic applications course of the academy's 200-hour Thai Yoga Massage training at the Swiss Dojo in Saillon.
