SOMATIC
PRACTICE
PHILOSOPHY
Training makes us experts in systems of the body, but it doesn’t give us all the answers about how they function for you. And when we marry that general expertise with a strong desire to be of service, we can easily miss our client’s innate intelligence and very real experience by only seeing what we expect to see. This is how symptoms get treated instead of souls.
In this practice, we strive to stay curious. To remain open to partnering with you in your session by listening to where you are, what you think is going on, and how you want to feel. In this way, the sessions are directed by you. No adult that has come into our office hasn’t spent their lifetime figuring out how to care for themselves. Pretending you don’t have that power by treating you as broken, feels incredibly unfair, and I believe, insulting. We are trained and dedicated facilitators. We love this work. And we’re so ready to see where you and your body want to go.
Combining techniques and philosophies from myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, structural integration (Anatomy Trains), Swedish massage, functional movement, with somatic dialogue and polyvagal theory - these sessions are focused on gaining clarity and relieving chronic patterns in the body that inhibit breath, movement, and ease across limbic, nervous, fascial, and musculoskeletal systems. We are looking at it all.
These sessions can be held fully-clothed.
Session time includes dialogue and bodywork.
75 and 90 - minute sessions available starting at $150
120 - minute sessions available upon request
Thai Massage is an ancient practice that combines acupressure, compressions, yoga and passive stretching. Also called the "lazy man's yoga," it is unique because it is practiced on a massage mat on the floor. The client stays fully dressed in comfortable clothing and there is no lotion involved.
Thai massage can be meditative and relaxing as it works with the sen energy lines. With stretching and assisted movements, this practice is more dynamic and invigorating than a traditional massage but it may create more feelings of freedom in the body and the mind!
Session time includes dialogue and bodywork.
