Somatic therapies are a group of therapeutic approaches that focus on the connection between the mind and body. These therapies aim to help individuals release physical tension and emotional stress stored in the body, promoting overall well-being. Techniques may include movement, breathwork, and touch, allowing clients to become more aware of their bodily sensations and emotions. Common forms of somatic therapy include Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, and Feldenkrais Method. Practitioners believe that addressing physical sensations can lead to emotional healing and personal growth. By integrating body awareness into therapy, clients can gain insights into their experiences and improve their mental health.
