Somatic education is for people ready to participate actively in their own healing, ready to learn -- who have lost faith in, or patience with, the medical system and are taking matters into their own hands -- and for health care practitioners looking for something more than the standard modalities, to help their patients.
There exists a specific process in which you actively participate, with obvious (i.e., blatant), lasting improvements accumulating at each step -- well-defined, very effective and very affordable steps backed by a no-time-limit money-back satisfaction guarantee that has rarely been invoked. If you've been getting treatment for pain for a long time and aren't getting better, aren't getting better fast enough, or if different doctors have given different diagnoses and you've "tried everything" without satisfactory improvement; if you have despaired that you may have to live that way for the rest of your life, this site is for you. If you've been slowed down by pain and stiffness, if you have forgotten what it feels like to feel good and move well and now you hope only to reduce or manage your pain, this site offers an option better than that. It offers something new: results.Here, you'll find more than emotional support or explanations of the causes of pain and movement disorders and how difficult they are to treat; you'll find a way to end your own pain definitively (and help if you need it), to recover your capacity for healthy activity in a reasonably short period of time, at your preferred standard of movement health (or better). Injuries and Pain Reflexes | to articlesInjuries, shocks, and pain trigger postural reflexes that rob us of control of our own muscles and cause pain and stiffness to linger long after tissue has healed; we tighten up, and tight muscles hurt; we lose the ability to relax tight muscles and to move freely in certain ways. Without retraining, people often stay that way indefinitely. You know: "He was never the same, after that." Many people have had that experience; just watch how people move in public places and notice how many people stand and move in ungainly ways. What's been lacking in most therapeutic approaches (<== click for comparisons) is the ability to deal effectively with these shock-and-injury reflexes and the muscle tension and pain they cause, and a way people
can keep themselves well
without professional help.
Many people who have unsuccessfully undergone physical therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, massage therapy and various forms of bodywork, osteopathy, neurosurgery, et al., have found clinical somatic education to be a successful last resort with success rates in excess of 93% for relief of pain and recovery of freedom of movement.
Even if you've had a problem for a long time, time is not a factor. You can have your life back -- in recreation and athletics, at work, at home and in the bedroom -- in short, in any situation where you need free and easy movement to exercise, lift and carry a heavy box, get into a car, sleep comfortably, or move comfortably from position to position.
The key to recovery is your recapturing control of muscles tightened by reflexes triggered by injury or nervous tension; the tension eases and you can move comfortably, again. Pain fades out, starting immmediately. You come back to the way you were -- or (more often) finish better than you were, before -- and you can keep yourself well without outside help.

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it,
nor in traditions because they are old and have been handed down from generation to generation and in many locations, nor in rumor because it has been spoken by many, nor in writings by sages because sages wrote them, nor in ones own fancies, thinking that it is such an extraordinary thought, it must have been inspired by God or a higher power, nor in inferences drawn from some haphazard assumption made by us, nor in what seems to be of necessity by analogy, nor in anything merely because it is based on the authority of our teachers, masters, and elders. However, after thorough investigation, observation, analysis and reflection, when you find that anything agrees with reason and your experience, and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, and of the world at large; accept only that as true, and shape your life in accordance with it; and live up to it. ~~ Gautama Siddhartha Shakyamuni |

The proof of the pudding is in . . . . .
"Somatic" (from the ancient Greek word, "soma": "the whole living, aware, bodily person") means, "pertaining to the body experienced and controlled from within." "Education" means "the developing of your natural faculties."
