Training and professional development in the practice of the Esoteric Breast Massage remains focused on the quality of relationship with which the trained EBM practitioner approaches every woman. The essential foundation for this is the relationship each practitioner has with herself and her own breasts, with the necessity to continue deepening the quality of this in order to offer this same depth to other women.
This brings to the fore and demonstrates an understanding of what it can mean to ‘walk one’s talk’ as a fundamental and pivotal aspect of training, and underpins the integrity with which the modality is maintained and practiced. A woman who has refined what it means to honour herself to this degree, cannot but offer the same to another.

Trainee experiences

Here, some trainees and accredited EBM practitioners share their experience of the EBM training and continuing development program, accounts that reflect this inextricable link between their responsibility for the quality of their own evolutionary development and healing, and the quality of support they can offer and inspire that in another woman.
Beverley - United Kingdom
"My experience of the EBM training is that it carries a depth of true integrity and is presented with deeply loving care and support, to a standard of the highest level. During the training I have been presented with the opportunity to deepen the relationship with myself and further explore all that it means for me to live and express as a woman in a woman's body.  This is a very welcome part of the training and at times has been challenging, as deep patterns of disregard have been exposed in readiness to be healed.
Jessica - Australia
"Although I am still in the early stages of my EBM training like all things I tend to be dropped into the deep end (although I suspect there is no shallow end when it comes to the EBM modality). I have felt supported and held throughout the training by the global group of woman that are inspired and committed to revolutionising women’s health and breast care.  I remember being amazed at how easy and natural the modality felt and how unfortunate it is that society has diminished the importance of breasts in woman’s health.
Josephine - Australia
"The EBM training is one of the most, if not the most, challenging, inspirational, expanding and fulfilling things I have done in my life. To train as an EBM practitioner is not something you can just learn and do, you have to live to the best of your ability (and without perfectionism) the unfolding of what it is to be a delicate, tender, loving, powerful and a true woman yourself and everywhere you are not living this starts to show up big time in your life, on many levels.
Jenny - Australia
"For me, EBM training has marked a significant personal milestone, managing to bridge the usual line between personal and professional development with outstanding grace. Over the past 9 years attending training and updates, I’ve learnt that when it comes to the quality of service and integrity required to practice this modality, the marriage between personal and professional development is key.
Mariette - The Netherlands
"For me the EBM training is the most profound training I have ever embarked on. It is more than a training, as the training does not stop once I leave the training room. It has no beginning, nor an end. The EBM training is about life, and how I live that life. It is in my every day, with every choice that I make.
Maryline - France
"I started training in the EBM last year (2015) thinking that it would be a profound massage to offer women in my practice in France. In fact, what I realised I was getting into was a training in a technique that has the power to help women to return to the beautiful, caring, loving, tender and delicate beings that they/we naturally are.
Simone - The Netherlands
"This training has the highest standard of integrity I have come across in my life.
It is a truly fulfilling and challenging way of deepening my connection with myself as a woman and to feel how delicate, powerful and gentle I innately am.
Sara - Australia
"Esoteric Breast Massage training is unlike training I have experienced in any other modality, course or even a bachelors degree. There is a very firm and solid foundation for this modality that is held in an enormous amount of love and the truest form of integrity, so that when we come together as a group of women, both accredited practitioners and trainees, there is a very clear purpose to support each other and evolve together.
