  • SOMATIC BENEFITS

    How Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork can change your life

    Somatic stems from the Greek word soma, meaning body in its wholeness. My approach to Bodywork and massage integrates the interconnection of the body and mind. How the physical and emotional stress stored in the central nervous system and tissues.

    PHYSIOLOGICAL BENEFITS:

    • Reduce Chronic Pain, Improves Movement and Posture through the release of the fascia (connective tissue, surrounding the organs, muscles and bones), and muscular tension.
    • Nervous system regulation: Activate the parasymphatetic system that induces relaxation by lowering heart rate, blood pressure and decreasing stress-hormones (cortisol) while increasing feel-good neurotransmitters like serotonin or dopamine.
    • Support for Immune Function: Increase blood and immune cells (white blood cells, lymphocytes) circulation, stimulate lymph flow for the removal of toxins, and promote better sleep. All of which are benefical to promote overall well-being.

    PSYCHOLOGICAL BENEFITS

    • Hormonal Balance: Reduce levels of cortisol (stress hormone) and promote mood, sleep and cognitive-regulating neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin).
    • Cerebral Activity: Changes brainwave patterns, influences part of the limbic system (amygdala) involved in stress management.

    Myofascial release is a manual therapy that applies sustained pressure to the fascia (connective tissue providing structure and support to the body) to relieve pain and stiffness stored in the muscles and joints by improving range of motion, and restoring function.
