Somatic Experiencing in Asheville, NC or Online
Somatic Experiencing:
At our integrative wellness practice in Asheville, we combine Ayurvedic Medicine, Medical Massage, Yoga Therapy, and Somatic Experiencing® (SE™) to help you restore balance in body, mind, and spirit.
Somatic Experiencing is a body-based approach to healing trauma, chronic stress, and nervous system dysregulation. Developed by Dr. Peter Levine, SE™ helps release stored tension and supports your body’s natural ability to heal.
What is Somatic Experiencing?
Somatic Experiencing® is a gentle, body-centered trauma therapy that focuses on:
-
Releasing patterns of stress, anxiety, and trauma stored in the nervous system
-
Restoring a sense of safety, calm, and resilience
-
Helping the body resolve symptoms such as muscle tension, sleep difficulties, digestive issues, and chronic pain
Unlike traditional talk therapy, SE™ works directly with physical sensations, breath, and movement to support deep healing and integration.
Benefits of Somatic Experiencing:
Many clients find SE™ helpful for:
-
Healing trauma and PTSD
-
Managing chronic stress, anxiety, and depression
-
Easing symptoms of chronic pain and tension
-
Improving sleep and relaxation
-
Enhancing connection between body, mind, and emotions
-
Supporting recovery from injury, surgery, or illness
What to Expect in a Somatic Experiencing Session:
During a Somatic Experiencing session, you will be guided to gently notice body sensations, emotions, and movements in a safe, supportive environment. Sessions are client-led and paced according to your comfort level.
Each session may last 55–85 minutes, and may be combined with Ayurvedic recommendations, massage therapy, or yoga therapy for a truly integrative healing experience.
