Clinical Somatic movement for physical pain and mobility issues

Clinical Somatic Movement Sessions

 

As a trained Clinical Somatic Practitioner, I offer one-to-one sessions that begin with a full assessment of your current issue and an exploration of your unique movement patterns. Using a hands-on approach with table-based work, I guide you in sensing and engaging muscles that you can already feel, as well as identifying areas affected by Sensory Motor Amnesia (SMA) — where muscles have become harder to sense or control.

 

Recognising these areas is a key step in understanding where you’re holding chronic tension. From there, I help you re-educate your nervous system using gentle techniques to lengthen these muscles back to their natural, relaxed state — reducing tension and often dissolving chronic muscular pain.

 

Sessions are typically 70–90 minutes, depending on whether it’s your first appointment or a follow-up. This dedicated time is focused on helping you regain voluntary control of your muscular system and reverse patterns of SMA through a series of techniques known as pandiculations.

 

After each session, you’ll receive custom video resources to support a home practice, allowing you to integrate somatic movement into your daily life and maintain the progress we’ve made.

 

While you’re welcome to book a single session, I recommend a minimum of 3-5 sessions to address the full body — including the front, back, and sides and diagonal patterns — for best results.

Somatic experiencing for stress, trauma and PTSD

Somatic Experiencing

Somatic Experiencing is a body-based therapeutic approach that gently supports the healing of trauma by focusing on sensation rather than story. In SE, the nervous system is given space to “tell the story” through bodily cues and felt experiences, rather than requiring you to verbally relive past events.

 

Research shows that repeatedly recounting a traumatic or even stressful experience can cause the nervous system to respond as if the event is happening in real time. This is why traditional talk therapy, while valuable — especially for those who have never spoken about their trauma — may not be the best fit for everyone.

 

SE recognises that trauma is often stored in the body. Using gentle techniques, we work together to track sensations, movements, and patterns that arise. This helps you process and integrate unresolved experiences without retraumatisation. Over time, SE can support you to build greater regulation, resilience, and a deeper connection to your body’s innate capacity to heal.

Somatic Movement classes

Somatic movement classes are a great way to experience the gentle power of this work and how it can help dissolve tension, reduce pain, and support freer, more easeful movement. Classes are general in focus, exploring a variety of movements designed to release holding patterns across the whole body and support new, more functional ways of moving.

 

These sessions are suitable for all ages and abilities. You’ll always be encouraged to move within your own comfort level and range — there’s no need to push or force anything.

 

Classes are available both in person and online, so you can choose the format that works best for you.

£34 per month (includes access to all weekly classes)

 

Please bring your own mat for in-person sessions.

Private Somatic Classes
Private classes for movement - In person and online

These personalised sessions are a great way to deepen your somatic practice and build a consistent movement routine that supports long-term comfort, mobility, and ease.

 

You can book a private class as a one-off experience or as a regular appointment to help integrate somatic movement into your lifestyle. Sessions are tailored to your individual needs and goals — whether you want a focused, structured approach or something more fluid and explorative.

 

As Thomas Hanna, the founder of Clinical Somatics, said:

“Ageing is a myth.”

With regular movement and nervous system regulation, we can maintain a higher level of health and vitality as we move through life.
