This unique bodywork therapy safely and effectively releases trauma, shock and stress disorders, calming and regulating the nervous system by tailoring talking and practical methods. This aids you in becoming more body aware, so you can identify and calm early signs of stress activation rather than become overwhelmed which can cause traumatic shock to stay frozen in the body.

In our somatic therapy Edinburgh sessions, we build a safe container within you by identifying resources – internally in the body and externally in your life – that help grow your ability to cope with reactions and emotions as they happen. We then gently look into the stressful situation or trauma to see how it feels and how the body reacts to it. Pendulation between a state of calm and activation leads to a discharge of the stress cycle. You will start to feel more content and at ease, with a greater sense of empowerment and confidence. Reducing the frequency and intensity of symptoms creates the ability to manage them better and recover quicker if they do occur.
