Peter Stalder

Peter, born in January 1966, embarked on a journey of self-discovery early in his adolescence, he began exploring profound questions such as: Who am I? What is my purpose? What do I truly want to achieve? What does freedom mean?What does it take to make the world a better place? This explorations sparked a lifelong curiosity that took him in many directions. However, certain fields of interest and passion have remained constant and central throughout his life: personal growth and self-awareness, perception and communication. Music, writing and fine arts. Body movement and healing, practical philosophy and spirituality - and the joy of cooking.

In his work as a body therapist he wants to support human beings through touch to release physical but also emotional tensions. His goal is to create safety and space where healing can happen. Through touch and movement he wants to open pathways to expand boundaries, allowing the human he works with to connect deeply with their innate body wisdom and find a way to welcome and embrace themselves. Over time his approach evolved into the method of STAMBHA Holistic Massage in which he integrates his extensive knowledge and experience from various disciplines, including manual therapy, energetic work, yoga, martial arts and spiral dynamics. With years of teaching massage, applied anatomy, and yoga, Peter feels immense gratitude for the opportunity to share his insights and expertise with others.

Music has always been an important part, a cornerstone of Peter's life. He began playing instruments in his youth and spend several years singing and playing in bands, weaving music seamlessly into his everyday existence. Today, music continues to be an integral part of his life. Exploring the world of mantras has opened a vast new universe for Peter, bringing a subtle yet profound dimension to his spiritual practice. This connection deepens his understanding of sound as a transformative and healing force.
