I’m a certified BodyTalk practitioner with both the South African and the International Body Talk Association owner of a successful recruitment company, and a life & career coach.
I discovered BodyTalk by chance in 2019, and was captivated by how this holistic healing system works on all levels—physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual—bringing clarity, balance, and transformation. I love its non-invasive, deeply relaxing, yet incredibly powerful impact, and have witnessed extraordinary healing, growth, and relief in my clients. With a deep passion for holistic healing, I specialize in addressing the root causes of physical, emotional, and energetic imbalances through the BodyTalk System, helping to relieve stress, improve overall well-being and bring harmony to both mind & body.
Each session is uniquely tailored to your needs, is safe and non invasive, and works with all ages. Whether you're struggling with chronic pain, emotional trauma, or simply seeking greater self-awareness, I’m here to support your healing journey. I look forward to working with you and helping you unlock your body's innate wisdom for optimal health and vitality.

My journey into Body Talk. I qualified as a teacher from the Cape College of Education in 1988 with an HDE in Art Education. Immediately I saw the benefits of expressing oneself creatively and set off on a quest to study Art Therapy which was not offered and still is not offered in South Africa. On the road to getting my Art therapy qualification I studied Counselling Psychology as well as Psychotherapy. In 2007 I was introduced to BodyTalk, and it was a welcome addition to these studies and modalities.

My own introduction to Body Talk happened per chance. I had been experiencing increasingly debilitating hip pain and had been for scans, sonar’s and x-rays, and I had started doing specific exercises to strengthen my back to compensate for the pain in my hip, but nothing seemed to work. Then at an Art Exhibition I ran into a Body Talk practitioner, I found what she said fascinating and asked her if she thought she may be able to help me with my hip. Off I went full of trepidation and disbelief that lying on a table fully clothed and only with someone’s hand on my pulse she and I together would effect a cure. Well we did, I got up off that table and have not experienced hip pain since. She had addressed both the physical and emotional cause of the pain and it was gone!

I immediately thought, what a gift to be able to find the very cause, the very core of a problem and how much quicker therapy would be if instead of probing gently over a long period of time, the body could take me to the very heart of the situation and its cause. Allowing us to work from the ground up to effect a cure.

I am a certified Body Talk practitioner in practice for 12 + years. I have completed all of the advanced modules including Parama, I have also qualified as a Reiki master, Life Print Analyst and Cranio Sacral Therapist. Each individual needs and deserves an individual approach to bring healing and balance to the Body, Mind and Spirit. Every day I feel privileged to be part of others healing journey.
I opened a clinic in Gardens in Cape Town in January 2022 offering not only Body Talk, but a host of other natural healing modalities. Our tenants included a Bio-kinetisist and a Psychologist. We offer a Quantum Scanner Analysis so that you can track your healing in real time.
Our reach is world wide with clients not only in Africa but also in Austria, Spain, America, UK and New Zealand.

The changes I have seen in people I have treated can only be described as miraculous and I am in awe of the body’s ability to heal itself on all levels… physical, spiritual and emotional.

As a certified practitioner of the BodyTalk System, I am committed to ongoing professional development. I rigorously maintain and update my skills through continuous training, ensuring that I provide my clients with the most current and effective care possible.

I’m Siemon Scharnik, a dedicated holistic practitioner committed to guiding others on transformative journeys of healing and
self-discovery. My path to this work has been shaped by my own experiences, trials, and the profound healing I found through alternative and holistic practices.

From an early age, I was drawn to understanding the human mind and spirit. This passion led me to study many modalities, aspiring to help others navigate the complexities of life. Yet, my own life’s challenges soon revealed the limitations of traditional methods. As I sought healing for myself, I realized that talk therapy and conventional remedies often fell short of addressing the deep, intrinsic needs of the soul.

It was in this search for something more meaningful and effective that I discovered the power of somatic healing, energy work, and
plant medicines. These experiences were nothing short of life-changing. They unlocked a new understanding of myself and how we, as humans, are designed to heal when we connect deeply with our bodies, our energy, and the natural world.

This pivotal realization inspired me to embrace a path of holistic healing—not just for myself but for others. It became clear that my
purpose was to guide others through similar journeys, offering modalities that honor the wisdom of the body, the power of the mind, and the transformative potential of the spirit.

Today, as a BodyTalk Practitioner, Reiki Master, Somatic Trauma-Informed Facilitator, and more, I bring a unique blend of ancient
practices and modern insights to my work. Whether through somatic embodiment, energy alignment, or plant medicine integration, I hold space for those seeking a deeper connection to themselves and their lives.

I understand the courage it takes to embark on this path because I’ve walked it myself. I work with individuals who have tried
everything and are now ready to explore holistic, integrative solutions. Together, we create a safe, nurturing space for growth, healing, and transformation—one step at a time.
