So glad to see you posting again! The concepts I picked up from the very first few exercises sre concepts I still apply today, but don't have totally ingrained. It would behoove me to return to the program. Thanks! I think what you do is important!
I’m subscribing because you are absolutely gorgeous and sound soothing. Thank you for the explanation as well. In my corrective exercise course and it’s driving me crazy with the terminology
Hi, I've been to the website but couldn't find anything there... Do you have any articles covering the link between pandiculation and reset of the γ-loop ? Thanks
Hi Sarah, I have a question regarding post program. Im currently doing level 1 and having good progress so far. The one thing im curious about is after I have recovered and im back doing serious exercise, should I still stretch before/after running or playing sport if it doesnt help from a long term pov? Thanks
I do not recommend static stretching. Research shows that static stretching before a workout worsens performance. It's also dangerous to stretch muscles that haven't been warmed up. Static stretching after a workout just doesn't accomplish anything long-term, because it doesn't retrain the nervous system. I strongly recommend using Clinical Somatics as your cool-down after your workout. The exercises release the muscle tension you built up during your workout and facilitate recovery. As a warm-up, I recommend doing a slow, gentle version of the movements you'll be doing in your workout. somaticmovementcenter.com/how-to-approach-exercise-when-youre-in-pain/
I’m in my sixties with neck arthritis and bad muscle pain on neck and upper back , from years of computer work, my question is , are my muscles. Tight because they are weak from holding bad joints or will pandiculation make them weaker? Thanks
Tension has built up in your muscles over the years (as happens to everyone), and this has likely caused or contributed to your joint pain. Pandiculation does not make muscles weaker; it reduces their baseline level of muscle tension, and allows you to use them through their full range of motion. In this way, pandiculation can make you feel stronger because you have better control of your muscles.
I have Neck trigger point on the left side behind sternocleidomastoid ,i have a muscle behind my ear who is tigh ,out of balance. Do you know how to disactivate this knot tigh muscle please because i have tackicardia... I send you an email.Thank you very much
Hi Rachid, Trigger points are very tight, sensitive areas in muscles. We don't use the term trigger point in Clinical Somatics, but CSE exercises release chronic muscle tension and should eliminate your trigger points over time, with regular practice. If you want to learn more about how Clinical Somatics works, I recommend reading my book The Pain Relief Secret. If you're ready to jump into learning the exercises, I recommend the Level One & Two Courses. I hope that helps to get you started!
@@somaticmovementcenter Hi Sarah, Thank you for your quick response but is there one that you could recommend to me for this on your site, this morning I got up with the muscle behind the ear and which descends towards the cervical,if there is exercices on the level 1 and 2 to try to release this area perhaps i will try Thank you for what you do.

@@rachidhaddad4051 Hi Rachid, I teach the exercises only through my online courses, Levels One & Two. I don't teach individual exercises because it's important to address full-body patterns of muscle tension. "Spot work" doesn't work in the long run. So, I recommend that you enroll in the Level One & Two Courses, if you're interested in relieving tension throughout your body. I hope that helps!
