More Than A Massage: How Touch Can Heal Sexual Trauma with Dr Dominique Carson LMP

In this episode, I sit down with licensed massage therapist and journalist Dr. Dominique Carson to explore how intentional touch can become a powerful tool in healing sexual trauma.We go beyond the table by diving into the emotional, psychological, and somatic layers of massage therapy. Dr. Carson shares how trauma can live in the body long after words run out, and how a safe, informed practitioner can help clients reconnect with their bodies, reclaim pleasure, and begin to truly heal.This is a conversation about consent, nervous system regulation, and what it really means to feel safe in your skin again.Whether you’re healing, holding space for others, or simply curious — this episode might change how you think about touch forever.Dominique's Linktree: TBBI Links/Enquiries:Facebook: The Blue Butterfly InstituteEmail: [email protected]: thebluebutterflyinstitute.org.auIntro/Outro Theme: Breaking The Silence by Marya StarkIf in need of help during an immediate crisis:100RESPECT: 1800 737 732Interested in being a guest speaker on the podcast?
