Hi I'm Roni
Based in La Cerdanya, Spain
My path into healing began long before I had a name for it. It started with two years studying homeopathy, followed by a journey to India that opened everything. A year later, I met a shaman, and for the next ten years I followed his teachings, travelling through India, Costa Rica, the United States and Israel. Living a nomadic life close to nature, learning to eat in ways that truly nourish the body, and immersing myself in the ancient Taoist arts of self-healing and sexual energy work. It was a complete way of living, not a course or a curriculum, but a decade of embodied practice rooted in the wisdom of the natural world.
That journey of self-healing became the foundation of everything I do. Those years didn't just shape my technique. They shaped my presence, the quality of attention I bring to every person who comes to me.
The Training Behind the Touch
Over two decades, I have immersed myself in some of the most profound traditions of bodywork and integrative medicine available.
I trained in Tui Na, classical Chinese therapeutic massage, at the Broshim School of Integrative Medicine at Tel Aviv University. I hold a diploma in Integrative Acupuncture and Dry Needling, and completed advanced studies in psychosomatics and mind-body medicine through the Nader Butto Method, a system working at the precise intersection of neuroscience, emotion and the physical body.
A defining chapter of my training took place in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where I studied directly under Master Mantak Chia in the Universal Healing Tao system, one of the most ancient frameworks for working with the body's energy, organs and vital force.
My training encompassed six core practices:
- Tui Na: classical Chinese therapeutic massage working along the meridians to open blocked energy, restore flow and address both physical and emotional holding in the body.
- Chi Nei Tsang: abdominal organ massage working directly with the internal organs, fascia and the emotional body stored in the belly. This is the foundation of one of my signature treatments.
- Deep Tissue Massage: focused work on the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, releasing chronic tension and restoring ease of movement.
- Cupping: an ancient therapeutic technique using suction to lift the tissue, stimulate circulation, release fascial restrictions and draw out stagnation from the body.
- Taoist Meditation Practices: a complete system of inner cultivation including the Inner Smile Meditation, the Six Healing Sounds, the Microcosmic Orbit and Ovarian Breathing, practices that awaken and circulate Qi, restore emotional balance, and support hormonal health and deep feminine reconnection.
Together, these practices form a complete living system, not for treating symptoms alone, but for cultivating a body that is truly alive: warm, circulating, self-regulating and connected to its own inner intelligence.
Seven Years, A Clinic, A Community
From 2015 to 2022, I founded and ran a private holistic clinic in Tel Aviv, working with hundreds of clients navigating chronic pain, burnout, digestive disorders, emotional tension and the deep exhaustion that comes from carrying too much for too long.
I also worked within a professional wellness and sports centre in Ramat Aviv, bringing Tui Na, Chi Nei Tsang and integrative bodywork to athletes seeking something beyond a standard massage.
Between 2017 and 2019, I created and led a healing course for women, a space for embodiment, self-knowledge and real transformation.
How I Work
Every session begins with listening. Not just to what you tell me, but to what your body is already saying.
I work intuitively, drawing from whichever modalities best serve what is present on the day: Tui Na to open the meridians and release blocked energy, deep tissue work to free layers of physical holding, Chi Nei Tsang to address what lives in the belly, the second brain, the storehouse of the unprocessed.
I believe the body is not a problem to be fixed. It is an intelligent system doing its best with what it has been given. My role is simply to create the conditions in which it can return to itself.
Sessions are deeply personalised, no two are the same. And the effects often last long after you leave the table.
Now, in the Pyrenees
I am now based in La Cerdanya, a landscape that itself feels like medicine. I offer individual sessions, wellness retreats and group events in this extraordinary mountain setting.
Whether you are living with physical pain, chronic tension, digestive difficulty, emotional exhaustion, or simply the accumulated weight of a full life, I am here.

I work with the body the way a good listener works with words. With patience, with presence, and without rushing to conclusions.
