ORAYA HEALTH PRACTICES

HEALING IN RYTHM AND NATURE

At Oraya, healing is not an afterthought, it’s the heart of everything. Rooted in ancient wisdom and modern movement science, our Health program invites you to return to your body in the most nourishing ways. Our practices offer a sanctuary to soften, move, and awaken your vitality - at your own pace.

A SANCTUARY FOR STILLNESS AND CHANGE

Come to soften. To breathe. To realign. Oraya invites you to slow down, feel deeply, and reconnect with the wisdom of your body.

ROOTED IN PLACE

Tuscany isn’t just a backdrop, it’s part of the healing. From sun-drenched walks through olive groves and long-table dinners under the stars, to bathing in the region’s ancient thermal waters, every moment at Oraya is shaped by the land.

RESTORATIVE RYTHMS

A nourishing flow of movement, ritual, and rest. Our daily schedule is gently paced, offering structure without rigidity. Feel held, free, and fully yourself.

SCIENCE MEETS SPIRIT

Ancient healing meets modern somatics. Each session blends clinical expertise with soulful intention. The result? Transformation that touches every layer of you.

Gyrotonic® Expansion System & Gyrokinesis

Our one-to-one Gyrotonic® and Gyrokinesis sessions are tailored to meet you exactly where you are, whether you're an experienced mover or completely new to the method. Designed to expand, spiral, and articulate the body, this system works through breath, resistance, and rhythm to strengthen your spine and open new pathways of mobility and ease.

Led by our experienced trainers Nicki and Monica, these sessions are deeply supportive, playful, and adaptive for all bodies and all abilities. With breath as the anchor, you'll explore new possibilities of movement while grounding into yourself aligned, open, and strong.

BIOENERGETIC MINDFULNESS

Our bioenergetic mindfulness practice combines meditative awareness with the principles of body-based psychotherapy. In this guided experience, you’ll be invited to observe, express and gently release emotional or physical tension through presence, posture and subtle movement.

Led by Monica, our on-site psychotherapist, the sessions are held in a supportive and grounded space where you are encouraged to work with the body as both a guide and a source of healing. Expect shifts in posture, mood and energy, a renewed sense of clarity and a soft return to your instinctive self.

KUNDALINI ACTIVATION & MASSAGE

Kundalini at Oraya is a dynamic blend of guided movement, touch, breath, and energetic release. Designed to awaken and regulate the nervous system, these sessions activate the body’s dormant energy centres and bring balance where there has been tension or fatigue.

Kundalini massage is a powerful way to rewire old patterns stored in the body and bring spaciousness where things have felt tight or stuck. These sessions are subtle yet deeply effective — you’ll leave feeling expansive, centred, and clear.

LYMPHATIC SELF MASSAGE: A FULL BODY DETOX

This immersive, educational workshop led by our lymphatic expert Carli - guides you into one of your body’s most overlooked yet powerful systems of healing: the lymph. This two-part experience is hands-on, potent, and deeply replenishing, no experience needed, just presence and a willingness to release. Expect to leave lighter, clearer, and reconnected.

You'll begin with The OG Full-Body Flow, learning to open key lymphatic gateways and stimulate detoxification through self-massage, breath, and gentle movement. From there, we move into Leaner, Lighter Legs, targeting the thighs, groin, calves, and feet to support drainage and bring clarity from the ground up.

TUNE IN, LET GO. FEEL THE SHIFT.

At Oraya, sound is more than vibration. It is a form of medicine that speaks directly to the nervous system and the soul. Through healing harmonies and resonant frequencies, sound has the power to release tension, clear emotional blockages and bring the body into balance.

Our sessions are led by renowned sister singers Dee and Shirly Lewis, whose intuitive voices create a sonic field of calm and transformation.

YOGA : A DAILY ANCHOR TO COME HOME TO YOURSELF

Yoga at Oraya offers space to arrive — not to perform, but to feel. Our daily sessions weave together movement, mindfulness, and breath to support you in connecting to your body and the present moment.

Classes are adapted to the energy of the group and the rhythm of the day — energising in the morning, restorative in the twilight hours. Whether you’re a regular practitioner or brand new to the mat, these sessions offer a space to open, ground, and soften into your retreat experience.

BREATHWORK SESSIONS: UNLOCK STILLNESS, MOVE ENERGY

These guided group sessions invite you to explore the transformative power of conscious breath. Through a blend of gentle techniques and deeper breath cycles, you’ll access spaciousness in both body and mind, clearing emotional buildup, soothing the nervous system, and gently moving stuck energy.

Breath becomes the bridge between tension and release, resistance and ease. With music, light movement, and intentional facilitation, each session is an invitation to come home to yourself softer, clearer, and more open. Whether you're new to breathwork or returning to your practice, you'll be held in a space that welcomes whatever arises.

  • SHIFT WHAT FEELS STUCK

    Move through layers of emotional tension or stagnation with guided techniques that support safe release and emotional flow.

  • CONECT TO THE PRESENT

    Use the breath as an anchor to quiet the mind, deepen awareness, and cultivate presence in a fast-moving world.

  • RESTORE BALANCE

    Emerge grounded, clear, and gently energised with tools to support ongoing regulation and resilience beyond the session.

YOUR PATH TO
WHOLENESS

Whether you join us for deep physical release, emotional recalibration, or simply to rest and be held by nature, this space is designed to meet you exactly where you are. We invite you to step into a journey and feel what unfolds.
