What is Somatics
Somatics is a therapeutic approach that views the body as central to healing from trauma, stress, and chronic pain. Unlike conventional methods that rely primarily on talking or mental processing, somatics focuses on reconnecting individuals with their body’s natural cues and responses. Through gentle, mindful techniques like Somatic Experiencing, which eases tension by guiding the nervous system back to a state of calm, and movement education, which retrains the brain-muscle connection to relieve chronic pain, clients can rediscover the body as a resource for healing. By becoming attuned to physical sensations and shifts, individuals can release stored stress, build resilience, and achieve deeper self-awareness. Somatics empowers clients to access both emotional insight and physical relief, creating a holistic approach to healing that bridges the mind and body.
