Benj Spound

Founder of VHB, NCBTMB Approved Provider

​

I have been doing massage since I was a kid and found that I had intuitive skill working with bodies. Fast forward many years and I was traveling in Asia, studying Buddhist psychology, philosophy, and meditation. I was very interested in helping people with their inner work and personal healing and decided to find a style of bodywork that would help me work with people in this way. 

 

In 2016, in a moment of synchronicity, I discovered Lomilomi, the ancient bodywork modality of Hawai'i. I was drawn to it because of its heart-centered approach to healing and its capacity to go beyond standard massage, accessing the psychological and spiritual realms as well as the physical. Since then, I have devoted myself to studying and practicing several lineages of Lomi with several wonderful teachers.

​​​

After my initial training, I founded VHB and have had the honor of sharing bodywork ever since. I also began hosting and teaching Lomilomi trainings to share this work with as many people as possible. Whether you come to receive a personal session, participate in a community event, or train in Lomilomi and become carriers of this sacred work, I am here to support you on your path.

Benj creates a safe space and provides great support. My first exposure to breathwork was profound and the guidance, energy and body work helped me move inwards while also releasing physical tension in a safe space.

 

This experience led me to a healing session with Benj. It's difficult to describe with words, but it was a session that fully encompassed the physical with emotional and spiritual connection.

 

I was able to physically release, with greater realization, of what I needed to release mentally/emotionally. I feel lighter than I have in years and have noticed the benefits on my mental health and thinking patterns. The spiritual connection is beautiful and I feel so fortunate to have found this practice in VT. I highly recommend working with VT Holistic Bodywork!
