somatic wellness center

The Somatic Wellness Center is where I do Somatic Experiencing touch work with some clients. I offer gentle, attuned touch to support a client’s nervous system. Somatic touch work helps individuals process and integrate traumatic experiences and begin to work in a bottom-up way to complete trauma responses that may have been thwarted. We slowly begin to unwind the physiological bracing patterns that are no longer necessary. This touch work can help the body release tension and stress and promotes emotional and physical healing.

The Somatic Wellness Center is also where Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) dosing work is done. The KAP setting is a sacred healing space that we smudge with sage for clearing negative energy and palo santo for inviting positive energy prior to each session. Art supplies, oracle cards, stones, musical instruments, essential oils, eye masks/pillows, headphones and all items necessary for the Ketamine dosing session are available for use in this space.

Clients may also reserve time in the Somatic Wellness Center on their own to utilize the equipment available. All devices in the Somatic Wellness Center are designed to help clients master and regulate their nervous systems through direct and indirect stimulation of the Vagus Nerve. Equipment available in the Somatic Wellness Center includes:

The BioAcoustic Mat® employs a powerful low frequency sound generator that delivers a deep acoustic massage and cellular stimulation to the skin, muscles and joints. BioAcoustic Mat’s® music is embedded with specific frequencies that coax our mind into different therapeutic states by stimulating neural activity in the brain by controlling the number of sounds the ear hears per second and by playing a slightly different pitch in each ear. This results in our mind syncing with the rhythm of the body for relaxed or energized coherence.

BIoMat ®  - is a US FDA 510k registered medical device providing far-infrared rays (FIR), negative ion therapy, and superconducting natural tourmaline and amethyst crystals to allow radiant heat and negative ions to penetrate deep into the body. The BIoMat ® tones the nervous system for optimum performance to improve sleep and alleviate chronic pain, stress, anxiety, and depression.

VeRelief - Vagus Nerve Stimulation device with 5 modes and positions for general anxiety, sleep quality, stress recovery, optimize for performance, and panic attacks.

Safe and Sound Protocol™  is sound therapy that utilizes algorithmically altered music that filters out frequencies that do not fall within the frequency range of the natural prosody of the human voice. This specially filtered music moves the nervous system out of a defense (fight, flight, freeze) state and activates the socially engaged (ventral vagal) state of safety and relaxation.

Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulator is an FDA registered class II medical device that sends electrical impulses to the brain that stimulate the production of alpha waves, associated with resilience and calm focus, and balance the neurochemicals regulating moods, emotions, sleep, and cognition.

Chi Machine – The Chi machine is a passive method of relaxing movement in a reclined position. The Chi machine creates a figure 8 motion in the body while relaxing in a reclined position. Chi Machine Therapy creates passive lateral flexion in the spine and hips reducing back and hip pain and creating spinal flexibility, and helps balance the autonomic nervous system.
