Explore Movement SOMATICS TAUNTON

When I first went to see Sarah I had been suffering from chronic pain for a number of years. When we went into lockdown ways of working were changed for many people. Working from home became normal. Sarah set up her zoom classes up which was good for me as I could do the somatics on my bed. She is an amazing teacher,kind, compassionate, is always available. She goes above and beyond. I have been attending for over 2 years now. I would highly recommend it for anyone suffering with pain and or stress. It really calms the nervous system down and reduces my pain. With access to the library I can do additional classes whenever I need to. Sarah works so hard planning the classes, with different themes and titles.When I first started I did a lot of visualisation because I was scared to move due to my pain, but as time has gone on I am begining to move a lot more, but as Sarah says in all her classes I never move into pain. Sarah has taught me that as life goes on we can get into habitual movement patterns. Somatic movements help to release these patterns even something simple as cleaning your teeth with your toothbrush in the opposite hand. The live classes are amazing. I can always feel muscles releasing when participating. Even muscles that I wasn't aware that were tight. Sometimes I can be doing leg movements and my shoulder releases. I feel really grounded and positive at the end of a class.I am so please I found Sarah and her excellent classes.

Sarah has helped me with back pain. All the movements make absolute sense to me. Sarah is interested in many things including mindfulness. If you have a problem then speak to her as she is so willing to help. She knows how pain feels & has been able to conquer it through somatics

Somatics has given me my life back. I first met Sarah quite by accident when I saw her car in the Tesco car park advertising Somatics. I rang her and immediately I felt connected. I was impressed with her warmth, knowledge and passion for what she truly believes in. For years I had suffered with severe arthritic pain combined with fibromyalgia. It was getting increasingly difficult to do my job as a medical secretary sitting for hours at a PC with chronic neck pain and I seriously considered retiring. Somatics has changed my life. I can now move pain free and can enjoy doing my job and gardening again. I very rarely take analgesics anymore. Over the years I have tried everything from osteopathy, chiropractic treatments, massage, acupuncture and a cocktail of pills and potions. Some worked for a while, but nothing lasted until I started Somatics. I enjoy the freedom of the Zoom classes and a very extensive Library is available if you cannot make a class. Everyone is very friendly and each person will have their own reasons for doing Somatics. I have been doing the classes for about 2 years and it has and will continue to be a part of my life. I cannot thank Sarah enough as without Somatics I would be struggling. Nothing is too much trouble for her and she will always give help and advice if needed. I urge anyone in pain to give it a go. Chronic pain is debilitating and ruins your quality of life. Somatics has enhanced mine. Sue Wills
