<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Clinical Somatics Chair Exercises: Course Curriculum<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Clinical Somatics exercises retrain the nervous system to release chronic muscle tension, relieve pain, and improve muscular control, range of motion, posture, and mobility. The exercises are slow, gentle, and therapeutic. They are appropriate for all ages and fitness levels.<\/p>\n
In the Clinical Somatics Chair Exercises<\/strong> course, you’ll learn Thomas Hanna’s Clinical Somatics exercises that have been adapted to be practiced sitting upright in a chair. The Chair Exercises course is intended for people who:<\/p>\n\n- Cannot get down to the floor or back up comfortably<\/li>\n
- Cannot lie on the floor comfortably<\/li>\n
- Practice Clinical Somatics floor exercises regularly, but still struggle with their sitting and standing posture<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The exercises in this course are taught in ten Lessons, each of which is 18-30 minutes in length. There is a video demonstration of each Lesson, and an audio track of each Lesson that you can download and save. Clinical Somatics exercises are most effective when practiced with your eyes closed, so that you can focus completely on your internal sensations and muscular control. The video demonstrations are provided simply for reference in case you need clarification of the movements.<\/p>\n
When you begin the course, I recommend that you practice one Lesson per day, in order, for your first ten days. Then, practice any and all of the Lessons in the order that you find most beneficial. You have lifetime access to the course, and you can learn the exercises as slowly as you need to. There is no rush, and you should always do what feels best for your body.<\/p>\n
By practicing these exercises on a regular basis, you will discover many things about your body, and ultimately become the expert in your own body. You will release patterns of muscle tension that you’ve been developing and holding onto for years. You will discover which exercises you need to do on a regular basis to address your unique patterns of muscle tension. You will learn how to prevent tension and pain and improve your mobility and posture for the rest of your life.<\/p>\n

In 5 minutes I had enrolled and was doing the first day\u2019s practice. That night I noticed I could reach things on the tables on both sides of my bed.

After about two to three weeks into the program, I started noticing a reduction in pain, and it just continued to decrease from there. I\u2019ve spent thousands of dollars seeing chiropractors and multiple physical therapists, none of which were able to figure out my problem, let alone help me recover.<\/strong> Your program is truly remarkable and the results I got from such simple movements still astonishes me.\u201d<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/blockquote>Brian Beaumont<\/strong><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\u201cSomatics has brought back my quality of life.<\/strong> I have a spinal condition called spondylolisthesis with pars fracture (Grade II). What it entails for me: back pain, sciatica, protrusion of vertebrae, etc. I have been using the daily Somatics exercises consistently for the past two months. I can say without hesitation these exercises work. All the benefits as described here online and in my readings have been enlightening. Moreover, living without the pain and discomfort is life altering.<\/strong>“<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/blockquote>Bill McKinney<\/strong><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\u201cI have been practicing the Level One Course since August.

After a few days the pain began to subside, my posture was better, and I could walk for longer distances.
