Details of this retreat

Experience the Art of Sensory Holistic Treatment Massage
For people who want to consciously experience and deepen touch — whether or not they work therapeutically

» Who is this retreat for?
With the Sensory Holistic Treatment (SHT) method, you elevate your bodywork skills to a new level.

» This intensive training in the Sensory Holistic Treatment (SHT) method is designed for people who do not want to apply touch merely as a technique, but wish to experience and deepen it consciously. It is for:

» Therapists and bodyworkers who want to expand their skills and bring more presence, awareness, and quality into the way they touch and work with others.

» People without a professional background who feel curious about sensing more deeply again, giving and receiving conscious touch — regardless of whether they massage professionally or not.

» Previous experience in massage or bodywork is helpful but not required. What matters is your interest in feeling, perceiving, and giving touch with awareness.

» Through this training, you develop an understanding of how touch works between people: clear, attentive, and intuitive.

Getting Here

Location icon Stefano Bambagioni, Località Granaione, 90, Granaione, Grosseto, Italien

Directions

✈️ Arrival by plane: The easiest airports to reach us are Rome, Pisa, or Florence. From there, the journey takes approximately 1.5 to 3 hours.

🚆 Arrival by train: Travel by train to Grosseto station, where we are happy to pick you up.

🚗 Arrival by car: Your destination is Granaione, Località 90, Campagnatico (GR) — right in the heart of the beautiful Maremma.

Accommodation

🏡 Your accommodation is Agriturismo Podere San Agostino — nothing here was created for tourists. You are in the middle of real life in the Maremma: between olive groves and vineyards, between wild Tuscan landscapes and the tractors that work the land. This is not a staged holiday idyll. It is a living place that welcomes you exactly as it is. And if you wish, you may become part of it for a while. 🌿 There are places here that offer space to arrive and breathe: the wide terrace, the large garden, the pool — and your apartment in an old podere that does not hide its history. Many details tell stories of how life was lived here and still is: the wooden table from Stefano’s childhood, where his mother once rolled out pasta dough, or the stone sink where dishes were washed by hand — then and now. 🚜 And there are places dedicated to work: where machines, tractors, and tools stand; where it is dusty, raw, and sometimes beautifully chaotic — a reminder that this land is alive and worked every day.

🌿 Our spaces are intentionally simple, authentic, and close to nature — not a retreat center in the classical sense, but a place where real encounters can unfold.

🏡 Agriturismo Podere San Agostino — depending on group size and weather, we use the spacious terrace or the rooms of our country house.

☀️ Time outdoors in nature — whenever the sun invites us to move, breathe, and practice under the open sky.
