Disclaimer: This practice page offers a taster but it is not a comprehensive study of somatic practices for chronic pain. Most somatic practices need to be adapted to the individual case(s) in group or one to one sessions. You could listen/watch first to see if the practices are suitable for you, and/or consult with healthcare professionals before trying them out. Further guidelines are available with each practice.
