  • Summary

  • Somatic therapy, rooted in the belief that the body holds onto emotional trauma and stress, offers a holistic approach to healing by focusing on bodily sensations and movement. This approach, which originated with the work of Wilhelm Reich and Peter Levine, utilizes techniques like breathing exercises, mindful movement, touch therapy, and grounding techniques to help individuals release stored emotions and promote both physical and mental well-being. It benefits those seeking trauma recovery, anxiety and depression management, chronic pain relief, and stress reduction. Somatic therapy emphasizes the mind-body connection and offers a unique alternative to traditional talk therapy, providing a path toward deeper emotional release and lasting change.
