Somatic therapy is an approach to treatment that focuses on the mind-body relationship in order to improve mental health and wellness.
Somatic therapy may include grounding, boundary work, movement, titration and self-regulation. In addition to talk-type therapy, somatic therapy may include suggestions for yoga, meditation, dietary adjustments, exercise, Reiki, cranio sacral therapy and others.
Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach that helps people to be better attuned to the interplay between mental health struggles and physical experience. Mindful awareness of physical sensations along with how the nervous system engages to create either an alarmed fight-flight-freeze or a calm rest-digest response is a key component in somatic therapy.
