SOMATIC HEALING

BODY-BASED HEALING MODALITIES FOR DEEPER HEALING PROCESS

Deep healing, especially from trauma, can be an intricate journey, often requiring more than “talking” to achieve lasting change. Traditional therapy, while incredibly valuable, sometimes falls short in addressing the deeply ingrained, physical manifestations of trauma. Traumatic experiences can become stored in the body, leading to symptoms such as chronic tension, dissociation, and emotional numbness. This is why many individuals find themselves feeling stuck, despite their best efforts in traditional therapeutic settings. It's important to recognize that this struggle is not a personal failing but a natural response to deeply rooted trauma.
