Cajun Somatics

Our trained somatic educator, Terri Tauzin, HSE, will conduct your sessions. At Cajun Somatics, we will work with you to help you develop a more accurate sense of your body, and recondition your muscle control. For most people, this mind-body experience relieves pain and improves freedom of movement. All of the Somatic Movements are within normal limits of your body’s range of motion, and under your control. You are never asked to complete any uncomfortable movement.

At Cajun Somatics, our somatic sessions are filled with gentle, comfortable, specific and naturally occurring movement sequences. We recommend you commit to four or five sessions, and reevaluate as your program progresses. Through a series of one hour individual private sessions, you will be guided through slow motion movements that relax tight muscles, strengthen weak ones and improve coordination. We suggest you wear loose, comfortable, nonrestrictive clothing for ease of movement during your sessions.

You’ll be given specific movement exercises to do at home. They are designed to continue your improvement and help prevent the recurrence of problems. This self-care program takes about 15 minutes a day in the privacy of your own home and requires no special equipment. But it is an integral part of your improvement and is the key to long-term results. Cajun Somatics’ ultimate goal is to move you toward your own self-care program.
