"AWARENESS HAS THE CAPACITY TO HEAL." ~ DEEPAK CHOPRA

---

• Do you deal with pain in your back, neck, shoulders, hips, hands or wrists? 

• Have you noticed a steady decline in your quality of movement; progressively tighter muscles and more weakness?

• Have you lost trust in your body and therefore avoid certain movements or activities?

All of these physical issues seem like an inevitable plight of the aging process. This is, in fact, a MYTH! What has actually happened is that over the years you have accumulated habitual tension in your muscles that has worsened with time and life experiences. Now you are stuck inside a stiff body who's bone structure is being pulled on constantly by tighter and tighter muscles. This not only leads to painful movement, but it leads to weak muscles as well. 

If you are ready to explore a new way to improve your movement and reduce pain, I am ready to help you! 

Erin is an Essential Somatics®  Movement Teacher. Founded by Martha Peterson, the philosophy and approach of Essential Somatics® is rooted in the work of Thomas Hanna, Ph.D., who firmly believed that we, as individuals, can improve how we move through self-awareness in order to alleviate pain, improve mobility and even more so, to improve the our quality of life.  

There are many conditions and symptoms that we suffer with that are a result of habitual muscle tension in the body including sciatica, frozen shoulder, hip pain, SI joint pain, neck/shoulder pain, TMJ, herniated discs, and chronic back pain to name a few. 

Erin guides clients through movement patterns that are based on necessary movements for daily life - walking, running, reaching up, bending down, twisting. These patterns, done in a conscious way, help restore proper function of the muscles of the center of the body, which directly affect the periphery of the body (head, arms, legs). 

This approach is so effective because it involves sensory-motor retraining. In other words, the nervous system is reeducated on how to control muscle function. When chronic tension is released, proper coordination of the muscles is restored and therefore ease of movement as well. Most importantly, when we reset our nervous system in this way, we will find more ease and joy in all aspects of our lives. 

The gentle and subtle movements of Essential Somatics® can be explored laying down, seated in a chair and/or standing making them accessible to anyone.
