Here are Reviews for Harmonic Resonance Work:

Frances Litman of Victoria

“Thank you Ian for introducing me to your Harmonic Resonance Bodywork. It really helped lessen the tension I had in my back and neck. Your suggestions for optimum health were very helpful too. I feel you are someone who has a lot of first-hand experience and knowledge to share, plus you are a gifted healer and Trager practitioner.”

26 year old Victoria woman dance instructor S.W.

“I have had a lot of injuries over the years because of my job as a professional dancer. As I have gotten slightly older I found that what once were little aches turned into constant pain. I didn’t think much about this body work and frankly thought it wouldn’t have any effect on me. After my first session though I felt different. More balanced and would be how I would describe it. The amount of pain was noticeably reduced and I continued to feel much better for a while after. When the pain resurfaced I went back to Ian for another session and after this one again I felt much better and this time the pain stayed away. Ian is great at giving tricks and exercises to do that are very effective at keeping the pain away. It works. There’s really no other way to say it. During the session I felt very calm and respected.

I appreciated how Ian talked through everything and was constantly checking in to see how I was feeling and if I wanted anything differently or felt uncomfortable. Very professional, very spiritual, very effective.” S.W. (Dance Instructor)

Laurie Penelope Hagan

"I see Ian regularly for Harmonic Resonance Bodywork sessions. They are soothing, relaxing, aligning & Rejuvenating. I like being fully clothed while receiving the treatment & the heated table is nice!

Ian’s work is always respectful, gentle and satisfying. I will always go back!"

***** ***** *****

Victoria Chiropractor:

“After your first Harmonic Resonance session, I experienced some very unexpected and welcome improvements. Your protocol zeroed in on some old injury sites in a hip, lower back and ankle areas. The main thing was a completely balanced sensation with my gait. For example the left hip (hurt in a snowmobiling accident) now had the same freedom as the right. The left foot felt like it was planting normally, meaning that the arch felt ‘relaxed’. There were sensations over a three day post session period that make me think you are affecting something neurological. I also look forward to employing the exercises you showed me. As you know, I have already recommended your gifted care to some friends and neighbours. Thank you Ian.”

Sarah Norrad of Victoria

"At first I did not know what to expect from this blend of (Trager and Sufi) bodywork, but quickly felt at ease with Ian and his therapy. The music that he allowed me to choose from to start our session was beautiful and the prayer he began our work with moved me. I felt nurtured and respected thoroughout. Harmonic Resonance Bodywork felt like a gentle therapy and Ian an intuitiive and receptive healer."

David Sweet of Utah says:

For a long time I have dealt with problems centered on specific ligaments and tendons that connect my right hip. I move heavy underwater mining components which resulted in a previous injury. Recently, I felt as though I had a pinched nerve there.
First of all, Ian shared a thorough explanation of the process of Harmonic Resonance Body Work. He then explained how his Harmonic Body Work session may help my condition. The session went along very comfortable and relaxing. Not once did I feel any discomfort to my hip.
After the session I felt an absence of tightness or pinching at the injury site.
Later that day I hiked on uneven terrain along the coast for over 4.5 hours. Bending,squatting, and sitting gave no signs of pain. As an unexpected benefit, I had a continuing abundance of physical and mental energies.
For the last several days I haven’t noticed any pain in my hip.
Guaranteed I will return to Ian’s Business if the need arises. He has certainly developed some very detailed skills and accomplishments in this field. Additionally, his personality pairs nicely with the profession.
I am totally convinced that Harmonic Resonance Bodywork is effective,quick acting and legitimate.
Many thanks Ian!

I noticed that i felt energetically and physically aligned between treatments. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking to feel completely at ease and free from pain."

“A special heart centering Intimacy Education Bodywork was devised to slow down my over active mind. I also suffer from Bipolar Syndrome and this work, along with the homework Ian assigns me helps to stabilise my moods. This new work feels like it has released trauma from the cellular level. I feel such a connection with my body and spirit. I now have peace of mind, higher self-esteem and love for myself. I strongly recommend Ian’s services, especially for women.

Feeling good!

If anyone needs to add a little spring to their step (and life!), I hope they take the time to get a session with Ian - he's thoughtful, engaged, and in touch with the idea of sorting out what you need. He's a great one!

RESET and REJUVENATED!

What a gift this last session was with Ian of Harmonic Bodyworks. I came to the session feeling stressed and lacking power and vitality and by the end of the session I felt alive again. I left empowered and knowing that I could handle the challenges I was facing in life. Ian has such a gentle presence that my body calms when I am near him. The movement of his bodywork, enabled my body to reset itself with ease. With Ian’s help, I was able to release energy that I was in my heart field and unplug my sacral chakra. This session was the reset that I needed for my mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well being. Thank you Ian!

Harmonic Resonance Review

This is a public note of thanks to Ian and a recommendation for everyone to read. I have had a swollen, inflamed & arthritic knee which has been acting up for over a year now. It doesn't like to be straightened, nor pressure on it, nor being stressed or bent in any way. The daily pain makes me tired & tense. So I went to Ian for his special kind of massage with mudpack and electronic healing tools. Ian spent quite a bit of time with me. I could finally relax and let Ian "do his thing". And I love the spiritual consciousness and prayers that he brings to his practice. My knee was so much better afterwards, I was really happy I had gone to him. This kind man just wants to help & heal people! What a concept! lol... Thank you Ian for offering to help, for your kind heart, your skillset developed over many years and for all your special additional treatments which are unique to you. I am very grateful for your commitment to the common good and to me as a small piece of that. Namaste

Laura Kaye Moore, my review of Harmonic Resonance

Ian’s technique of combining Trager work ‘rocking’ with massage has been deeply relaxing, and induces a rejuvenating euphoria that leaves me feeling centered and in touch with my authentic self. Thanks Ian, for your loving care and respectful attention!

Felt thoroughly uplifted

I recently had a Therapeutic Harmonic Resonance Bodywork session with Ian Soutar. Ian has combined some very powerful healing modalities to match his own gifts and the result is a very powerful yet gentle experience. Ian immediately put me at ease and I was quickly able to let go and allow him to do the necessary body work. Ian solicited feedback every so often to ensure I was comfortable with the process which involves some hands on rocking as well as gentle touch. I was totally relaxed throughout and felt thoroughly uplifted at the end. I have waited a few weeks to see how well the affects have lasted and I can happily say I remain in a vibrant, revitalized state, feeling more flexible and relaxed. I highly recommend a session with Ian.” Peter Tongue, Science and Spirituality Educator

Harmonic Resonance

I found Ian’s work to be both relaxing and balancing. I could feel pockets of tension release from old injuries and energy begin to move. His work is gentle, focused, and intuitive. He assisted my body to realign to its natural state.

Effective Blend of Gentle Trager & Sufi healing

“From knowing Ian and his wife, Barbara, as neighbours, for almost a year — I can attest to the fact that Ian’s ethics are in the right place." Ian works out of an Artist Warehouse-type of building. His “spiritual” private massage-table office area is at the back of the warehouse space (and a larger electronic office) via a nice waiting area … complete with a cosy Scandanavian Design lamp. I looked up at his father’s United Church Minister’s portrait above the table … Then, I relaxed and “tuned in” to the changing New Age or World Music. Ian is a talented healer whose brand of bodywork is helpful. He is a generous soul and I can recommend him for his training and energy work. I understand that he writes for certain e-publications about his process. He seeks out new paths for this new era where people like me, in the Expressive Arts, are searching for alternatives to match other modalities and Western Med. -Dr. Lycia Trouton of Victoria
