Clinical Somatic Educators do not diagnose "disease" conditions, but only identify muscular tension patterns that correspond to patterns of pain and/or to somatic disorders, as below.
A Clinical Somatic Educator can usually predict, with a high degree of accuracy, the number of sessions needed to resolve a particular malady. If your practitioner feels you are not improving as expected, he or she may advise you to return to your physician for further diagnostic procedures.
