Hi there! My name is Kristin Jackson and I invite you to reconnect with all the wonderful, natural movement patterns from years past but you may have lost due to stress, injury or poor somatic awareness. My approach blends over 20 years of study in holistic movement, behavioral modification, and somatic education.
As children our brains grew and learned by moving! But as we "grew up" we were told to sit still, face forward, stop squirming around. It's no wonder we think aging equals pain and loss of function. But that's a complete myth. More likely your brain and nervous system have lost the natural ability to release your chronically tight muscles.
With Essential Somatics (also called Hanna Somatics or Clinical Somatics) I teach people how to regain flexibility, get rid of pain, reach new levels of fitness by going to the root of all movement: our brains!

About an hour after I got home, my shoulders opened up even more. Kristin made me feel so respected and I know that sense of safety helped me let go of the old defense patterning and expand. ~ SP, Alberta, Canada

Uneven Posture, Scoliosis and Chronic Pain
with Laura Gates, CHSE, in Portland Oregon

Before and After.
Examples of results from hands-on Clinical Somatics sessions.
This client had dystonia, a syndrome resulted in a constant contraction in her torso up into shoulder, neck and around her skull. Her face and head were constantly rotated to the left. The medical field believes it is irreversible. She had suffered from the inability to face forward for 17 years. She had tried "everything" and nothing helped long term. She was amazed at how somatic movements were so simple, enjoyable and provided results nothing else could.
Quite often people don't feel what they are actually doing with their bodies. This client felt "something" was off, but couldn't really sense where his body was in space. This is before and after one Clinical Somatics session. With simple somatics home practice he can easily learn to stand more vertically.
This client presented with scoliosis. The first photo was at her consultation and how she appeared at her first hands-on session. The right was after her first hands-on Clinical Somatics session. Her scoliosis is idiopathic, meaning no known condition. To the somatic approach her brain is contracting her muscles to create this S-curve to her spine. Again, with a home practice of simple somatic movements, her brain can relearn to stand more vertically.
Essential Somatics has changed my life. To not be in constant pain is such a relief. When I first started I felt instant changes and almost couldn't believe how simple it is. I do my Somatics movements everyday with the knowledge that it is so beneficial to and for me. Many thanks, Kristin! ~ SM, 67, Portland, Oregon
