What is Somatic Therapy?

Somatic therapy uses the body as the guide for healing.

“Soma” means “living body.” Your body is a vast source of wisdom, as it has lived all your life experiences with you. Your body holds onto those experiences. Your body is your brilliant ally. Throughout your life, your body has done what it needs to do for you to survive. It knew how to do these things and did them without you having to ask.

Somatic therapy helps you understand what your body has been through. It guides you to learn your body’s language. Once you understand what your body is asking for, you can meet its needs with compassion.

During your customized somatic therapy sessions, you will learn how to strengthen your awareness and develop healthier ways of being in mind, body and spirit. A session may include body-mind movement, Transformative Touch and other healing modalities.

“Rachel is someone who gives you the security and comfort to be able to open yourself and truly connect your mind and body. She truly cares about the people she is working with. Her ability to motivate with words, but more importantly with her actions drives me to keep coming back. Working with Rachel has been one of the best things I have ever done for my body, mind, and spirit.”
