Somatic Education Essentials
Deep Relaxation and Activation – Comfort and participation are central to Somatic Education, so treatments are relaxing, enjoyable, and enlivening.
Neuromuscular Repatterning – Using movement and awareness, we work with the dialogue between the brain and muscles to update movement patterns.
Great Communication – The client is the most important member of the health care team. We establish treatment goals and plans with 100% client involvement. We find what works through experimentation. If something we are doing doesn’t feel right, we won’t do that any more, and when something does feel right, we will expand there.
Clinical Assessment – Includes health history, analysis of past and present signs and symptoms, interface with current care providers, clear explanations of what is happening in your body now, and a treatment plan moving forward.
I will provide:
Skilled Somatic Education services in a safe, comfortable and private environment. Somatic Education is performed with the client fully clothed and includes dialogue, active movement, passive movement, and gentle proprioceptive activation through touch.
Excellent communication with your other care providers.
Sound and knowledgeable advice and education about your condition.
A comprehensive assessment and individualized treatment program.
Policies
Somatic Education is fee-for-service. I do not accept or process payments through insurance. I accept credit cards, checks, or cash. Payment is due at time of session, or before the session when using online booking.
I am not a Medicare or MediCal provider.
Appointments may be cancelled without penalty up to 2 business days prior to the scheduled session. Late cancellations are subject to full fee unless a true emergency, such as contagious illness, birth of your baby, etc. I ask that you schedule your appointments being mindful of this policy and with an understanding that an unfilled appointment due to a "no-show" means someone else missed the opportunity to receive care.
