Somatic Movement Education

 
 

“Engage in gentle, mindful movements to re-educate your nervous system and unlock your body's potential. Alleviate chronic tension and pain, improve posture, and enhance your overall well-being.”

Jamie Stuckel

Somatic Movement Therapy is a gentle yet powerful approach to healing that focuses on deepening your awareness of your body’s sensations, movements, and alignment. This practice is designed to help you release tension, enhance mobility, and create a sense of calm, clarity, and connection within.

What is Somatic Movement Therapy?
Somatic Movement Therapy is a therapeutic practice that engages the body through slow, mindful movements. Unlike traditional exercise, which often focuses on repetition and exertion, somatic therapy invites you to listen to your body’s cues. This practice helps to re-educate the nervous system, releasing chronic muscle tension and promoting ease of movement. It’s particularly effective for those recovering from injury, dealing with chronic pain, or seeking a deeper connection to their physical and emotional wellbeing.

Who Can Benefit from Somatic Movement Therapy?
This therapy is beneficial for people of all ages and backgrounds. Whether you’re dealing with stress, trauma, pain, or simply want to improve your body awareness, somatic movement therapy offers a holistic and non-invasive approach to support your healing journey. It can help with:

  • Chronic pain relief

  • Trauma recovery

  • Stress reduction

  • Enhanced flexibility and mobility

  • Improved posture and alignment

  • Emotional balance and wellbeing

How Does it Work?
During your session, our certified somatic movement therapist will guide you through gentle exercises that emphasize awareness and sensation. The movements are slow and deliberate, allowing you to focus on areas of tension or discomfort, and gradually release them. Over time, you’ll build new movement patterns that are more aligned and efficient, helping to alleviate pain and discomfort.
