Frequently asked questions and their answers about Clinical Somatic Education and Somatics.

What kind of conditions does CSE resolve or relieve?

Mon, 9/17/2007, 3:51pm -- fredadmin

CSE does not diagnose “disease” conditions. Instead, practitioners are trained to identify patterns of muscular tension that correspond to patterns of pain and/or movement dysfunctions. That being said, many of our clients come to us with some type of diagnosis from a physical therapist, chiropractor, or physician, so we've provided a list of the most common ailments we've worked with in the past. If you don't see your diagnosis on the list, please feel free to contact us and ask one of our staff members to see if Clinical Somatic Education can help you!

Does insurance cover Clinical Somatic Education sessions?

Mon, 9/17/2007, 2:31pm -- fredadmin

We have found that insurance companies will cover CSE sessions on a case by case basis. Our current policy is therefore to collect payment at the time of your session, and provide any paperwork or other information that will allow you to file for a reimbursement. You can also ask your doctor for a referral, which can often help in attaining reimbursement or even full coverage.

If you'd like more information, please call your insurance and inquire about whether they cover neuromuscular or movement therapy as a part of your policy. Read more about Does insurance cover Clinical Somatic Education sessions?
