Sōma

Soma has several definitions but in this context the reference is to the greek sōma, the Body. 'Somatic' therapy refers to body-centered approaches to mind-body healthcare.


Biodynamic Craniosacral

A light-touch relational therapy which emphasizes an inside-out therapeutic process. Biodynamic refers to the 'alive', fluidic, and intelligent behavior within the human organism.


The animation below is related from the book "Sensitive Chaos" by Theodor Schwenk in which an experiment is undertaken to understand fluid dynamics. Fluid has been dyed and injected in to stationary fluid that is clear. The gesture and shapes formed from the experiment show an interesting correlation with the form and shape of a newly developed embryo specifically, the embryonic phase of the developing nervous system.
