Somatics describes any practice that uses the mind-body connection to help you survey your internal self and listen to signals your body sends about areas of pain, discomfort, or imbalance. These practices allow you to access more information about the ways you hold on to your experiences in your body. Somatic Therapists believe this knowledge, combined with natural movement and touch, can help you work toward healing and wellness.

Somatics is a field within bodywork and movement studies which emphasizes internal physical perception and experience. The term is used in movement therapy to signify approaches based on the soma, or “the body as perceived from within.” Somatic techniques are typically used in bodywork, psychotherapy, dance, or spiritual practices. 

Suspension (with the AYRx Yoga Swing) is added to a massage table or soft surface to assist and support the ease of mobility through Spiral Energetix & Fluid Dynamic Movement. This swing/table combination that we call Suspended Somatics Therapy allows for a truly unique and profound experience of deepening into the non-linear edges of exploration within the “Interweb” Body Matrix and coming into full free flow expression of the Mind/Body/Emotional complex.

Instead of focusing on poses, in this practice we work with various supported and suspended movements that can stimulate fluid and spiral dynamics that will mobilize and hydrate the tissue/cells/fascia that connects all the joints, bones, muscles, and skin. 

We concentrate on the two main hubs of the body where the lymph system intersects:

Neck/Shoulders & Lower Back/Hips

Specifically, it is the groin and under arms where congestion often occurs in the energy lines and lymph nodes creating a stagnation in the circulation, detoxification, and oxygenation of the surrounding areas.
