What is somatics? We often blame all our aches & pains on aging, but much of it is instead the result of this chronic muscle contraction of which we’ve lost conscious awareness & control as the result of habitual movement patterns. A fully (level III) certified somatic movement instructor through the Somatic Movement Center, I have trained in the methods of Thomas Hanna, direct student of the famous somatic pioneer Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais. I have blended these principles and movements with those of other somatic approaches, developing my own unique & effective blend that I call Resilience Embodied™ Somatic Education & Therapy, RESET™. These therapeutic movements are gentle enough to be performed by anyone but accomplish powerful neuromuscular re-education that moves lost muscular awareness & control from the sub-cortex to the cortex and thus back to conscious control so it can be released - relieving the chronic pain! You do NOT have to simply accept that all the chronic aches & pains are inevitable as we get older. Schedule a private virtual session with me to learn these transformational somatic movements & take back control of how you feel! And, best of all, this is EDUCATION that will teach you movements to help you keep yourself moving with ease - rather than a never-ending dependency & never-ending costs. An investment of 5 or 10 sessions (face-to-face or virtual) will equip you with the skills and confidence to continue on your own, with single follow-up sessions available at a discount as needed. |
Testimonials
"I have had fibromyalgia my entire adult life. Two years ago, I was also diagnosed with stenosis in my neck. Over the years, I’ve tried multiple stretches, exercise, and even physical therapy to help ease the pain. When Sharon gave me the opportunity to try somatics, I was skeptical. How could small, slow movements make a difference? However, after the first session, I could already tell a difference! Provided I do my homework and complete the recommended movements a few times per week, the constant ache I carry in my shoulders has become more manageable. I can also once again ride my bike for long periods of time without extensive neck issues and numbness in my fingers. Pain has been a part of my life for so long, my muscles had adjusted to it through a constant level of contraction. Somatics has enabled me to retrain my muscles to relax. Plus, somatics doesn’t require equipment, or large amounts of room. Anyone can do it, and Sharon is an excellent teacher! I would highly recommend Sharon Kanfoush Wellness for anyone looking for long-term pain relief. I’ve taken one or two of these classes, and I was truly amazed at how great I felt! I have begun to do the movements not only most mornings but also some of them whenever I sense tension creeping in... and I feel like it is really helping!"
