About Kůra Růka

His practice and exploration during the past decade with meditation, yoga, non-duality in the Advaita Vedanta, Chán Buddhist and Daoist traditions, as well as non-violent communication slowly influenced the shaping of his interest in traditional healing arts. His travels in Asia between 2018 and 2020 were the most pivotal catalyst, as his interest in bodywork took indeed a more practical dimension during his time as a volunteer at Buddhist center ThaBarWa in Myanmar. Helping in massaging disabled patients and assisting Vietnamese physiotherapist Tran Trung Kien based there was a transformative experience which left him filled with eternal gratitude and a passion for healing arts which continued to grow ever since.

Today – fuelled by the dedication of his teachers, the inspiration stemming from other therapists and holistic practitioners, as well as the precious and positive feedback shared by his clients – Raphaël strives to further explore the field of holistic healing through a multidisciplinary lens drawing on Traditional Chinese and Tibetan Medicines, Ayurveda, new anatomy, natural movement and biomotion, bush medicine, as well as eco-spirituality. He currently humbly offers an eclectic range of therapies, massage services, workshops, and plant-based preparations, aiming to – through the presence of Heart – accompany and guide individuals holistically with their healing journey within a safe, respectful, and harmonious environment conducive to rejuvenation, solace, and gratitude.
