Tyrone Williams, owner of HST / bodymobilization and developer of the bodymobilization ™ system has close to thirty years of experience which include years of extensive research, teaching, & volunteer service.

He is a graduate of National Holistic Institute, & has had additional training with internationally recognized instructors. He teaches workshops & was a primary instructor at the National Holistic Institute for many years. He was the director of the Bay Area Sports Massage Team from 1990-1993, & has many years of study & practice in Yoga, Meditative Breathing, ZEN, & Aikido.

Over time, and with hard work he has developed unique insight into the ways the body responds to knowledgeable and compassionate touch with a single-minded focus.

The development of BODYMOBILIZATION grew out of the desire to blend the knowledge gained from many years of studying the martial art of Aikido, the study and practice of massage, and observing the life process of kinetic energy. The culmination became a way to enhance the body's ability to right itself through the natural order of nature as it relates to the body.

Energy Work

Jyoti SaeUn
For an appointment with Jyoti, please call her at (510) 421-5785 or email her at: clearingclouds@gmail.com.

Jyoti SaeUn has recently moved from Montana to return to the Bay Area where she began her healing practice fifteen years ago. She is the creator of the SaeUn Method (clearing clouds), an intuitive process that traces the body’s language of imbalance back to its origins. Her background includes certification in Bioenergy Balancing, counseling psychology, studies in nutrition, and extensive travel in Asia and Europe to explore complementary healing methods. In addition to private sessions, Jyoti has been training others in this technique in weekend intensives throughout the U.S. and Canada.
In your 1 hour session,  as Jyoti aligns intuitively with your body’s wisdom, the density of unresolved feelings, beliefs, or intrusions from the past shows up in various subtle sensations.  Your inner healer is engaged as Jyoti facilitates a clearing of these clouds and assists you in restoring the flow of positive energy through the chakras and meridians. Healing is on a deep and lasting level. You will become aware of more clarity and presence with yourself and others.
