Somatic Therapy Melbourne with Mike at Onaya. Somatic therapy, breathwork, bodywork and sound for people who want to stop reacting on autopilot and start responding with presence.
Somatic Therapy Melbourne: working with the body, not just the mind
Somatic therapy works with the body, not just the mind. Many of our reactions are learned patterns stored in the nervous system, the breath and the way the body protects itself. Somatic work helps shift those patterns where they actually happen.
What happens in a somatic therapy session
Sessions combine body based awareness, breath, movement and, when appropriate, hands on bodywork. You learn to notice reactions earlier, stay present with what you are feeling, and give your body the chance to soften instead of constantly bracing.
You remain aware, in control and supported throughout, and every session is tailored to you. Learn more about our somatic alignment.
Who somatic therapy is for
Somatic therapy is for people who react in ways they regret when triggered, shut down in hard conversations, or understand their patterns but still find them taking over in real life.
- Catching yourself before you shut down or react
- Staying present in conversations that would normally overwhelm you
- Letting your body soften instead of constantly bracing
- More space to choose how you respond in the moment
Somatic Therapy for Melbourne clients
Sessions are held at Mike’s private studio in North Warrandyte, in Melbourne’s leafy north east. Clients come from across Melbourne, including Warrandyte, Eltham, Research, Diamond Creek, Donvale and Templestowe, and group workshops and corporate sessions run at venues across Melbourne.
Getting started
The best first step is a free connection call, so we can talk about what you are looking for and whether this work is right for you. From there, many clients begin with the 3-Session Intro Series ($500), which gives your body and nervous system time to settle into the work and start to shift.
