Disorders Helped by Somatic Education Procedures
A partial list of disorders that respond well to Clinical Somatic Education appears below. The descriptions indicate the rationale and approach used in addressing a disorder. You can expect these disorders to improve or resolve completely within a few sessions.
Clinical Somatic Educators do not diagnose "disease" conditions, but only identify muscular tension patterns that correspond to patterns of pain and/or to movement dysfunctions.
A Clinical Somatic Educator can usually predict, with a high degree of accuracy, the number of sessions needed to resolve a particular malady. If he or she feels you are not improving as expected, he or she may advise you to return to your physician for further diagnostic procedures.
