SomatoEmotional Release (SER) is a therapeutic process that helps rid the body of physical and emotional trauma.
Dr. Upledger and biophysicist Zvi Karni, Ph.D. discovered that the body sometimes retains traumas by isolating them in the body. These areas of accumulated trauma, called “energy cysts,” inhibit normal energy flow.
The body has to work harder around these areas and over time symptoms may develop. SER works to locate and free the body of energy cysts. For example: the body may need to move into the same position it was in when the trauma was first induced in order to release the energy cyst and restore tissue mobility and function.
Dr. John Upledger's Discussion on Energy Cysts:
"Energy cysts are essentially regions of foreign energy that are disorganized, obstructing the normal conduction of microelectric currents through these regions. These disorganized energies may be thought of as entropic. They are usually from nonphysiological sources such as external trauma, pathogenic organisms or severe emotional shock. The body, unable to discharge these foreign energies, alternatively minimizes their effects by compressing them into the smallest possible volume. The CranioSacral Therapist's goal is to discharge all discovered energy cysts."

It is a unique blend of massage therapies and healing concepts created to support all individuals, including those living with cancer, critical illness, pain, or extreme stress.
