“[Somatics] heals pain in a non-intrusive and gentle way. Truly a holistic mode of treatment, Somatics also has offered me the opportunity to develop a more compassionate relationship with my body.

“I couldnít believe that in a few hours [my Clinical Somatic Educationô practitioner] showed me how to relieve the pain that I had spent hundreds of hours with physical therapists trying to exercise away! My posture and sense of well-being improved so much that people told me how great I looked and even asked me if I had lost weight! I recommend [Clinical Somatic Education] to everyone I meet who has chronic pain from an injury or an illness.”

“[Somatics] opened up a new world for me; one that was inside me the whole time. [Somatics] taught me that stretching and strengthening is not always the right approach to treating chronically sore muscles. Now, I routinely calm painful muscle spasms with meditation and slow, thoughtful Somatic movements.”

“Within a few sessions I noticed incredible improvements. My muscles were not contracting continuously. Stiffness disappeared, and I began to straighten up. After 4 sessions I am walking straight. I do my exercises once or twice a day. The amount of medication I now take has decreased dramatically. After each session I have been making miraculous improvements. I still have a little ways to go, but am so happy to walk straight and have my mobility back”

“Being educated as a Physical Therapist I anticipated acquiring the knowledge and skills to treat people with physical disabilities and symptoms. I realized prior to my graduation that was not even close to being the case. I spent the next eight years attending courses. I did a tremendous amount of self-guided study at home. I also organized seven courses at the hospital I was employed at, and brought in experts to teach. My skills did grow and my success with patients increased.
