Unlike conventional massage, which focuses solely on the physical manipulation of muscles and tissues, somatic massage emphasizes the integration of body and mind, helping individuals reconnect with their bodily sensations and release patterns of tension tied to stress. This approach works through the whole body systems of the nervous system and the fascial systems rather than addressing a single area in isolation. By helping to restore the natural balance in the body this can improve movement and ease pain caused by holding and bracing habits.

What to expect :

A blend of gentle sustained pressure holds with other traditional oil based massage techniques. Sustained pressure holds may stay working with the supeficial tissue layers, or can sometimes sink deeper into the body of the muscle or fascial spaces between muscles.
