Somatic Movement & Yoga Therapy

IMG_8181 BW.jpg

What is somatic movement therapy?

Somatic movement therapy is a customized application of somatics and yoga teachings and practices to provide an integrative approach toward wellness. Using techniques such as meditation, breath-work, postural analysis, muscle testing, myofascial release, and somatic movement, I will develop and implement a plan of care based on your individual goals and needs. Somatic movement therapy can be its own practice or be used as a complementary treatment alongside psychotherapy, physical therapy, and other medical modalities.

What to expect at your first session.

For your first session, we will discuss your past medical history, current concerns and conditions, and your intention for seeking out yoga therapy. In this session I will conduct breath and postural assessments, provide muscle testing, and follow up with a therapeutic session of somatic movements, breath-work, and meditation. I will provide you with a home plan of care to allow you to continue your therapy at home. Confidentiality is maintained, and I will collaborate with other providers to support any ongoing treatments.

Follow-up sessions build on this work and adapt according to your response to the initial plan of care.
