If there’s nothing obvious causing your pain, you should expect to get better…

If you’ve been suffering for chronic pain it may feel like you are going to keep suffering forever. Old injuries and chronic stress create discomfort, a cycle of pain, and dysfunction. You’ve probably knocked on a bunch of doors and seen a variety of practitioners before coming to my site and got minor to moderate results that didn’t last. Or maybe you heard what can often be the most frustrating assessment of all, that "there’s nothing wrong, you’re just experiencing the normal results of aging.”
Well, if there’s truly nothing wrong, then there’s probably nothing that is keeping you from getting better while resolving your pain. So then why are you still in pain?
The reality is that for more than 90% of people with low back pain, no specific structural cause can be found. Scans show "wear and tear" in plenty of people who feel completely fine. It's a pattern of tension and pain being maintained by your nervous system through your myofascia. We get so good at being stiff and bracing that we stop noticing we're even doing it. You're feeling the pain, but you're not feeling the bracing, so you can't stop doing the very thing that keeps the pain going.
Which means that for most people in pain, everything is working as it should be. It's just not comfortable, and you can't stretch or force your way out of it. But there is absolutely an answer to this, and that's what I'm here for.
Elevated Somatics is the only practice in the Denver Metro offering Hanna (clinical) Somatic Education which is the most advanced physiological method for helping people unwind and reverse their chronic pain. Not through force, not through medication and with no extra devices. We achieve consistent, reliable, and predictable results through functional movements and hands-on neuromuscular techniques that help you better sense and control your physiology. Working together, most people feel better quickly because you are breaking the cycle of pain-tension while regaining activity abilities and keeping them.
For those curious to go farther, this work offers an opportunity to explore optimal musculoskeletal as well as psycho/emotional health, feeling better and better with each step along the way.
what somatics does for you
Traditional treatments often just target symptoms, focusing on the parts of your problem you are aware of. By retraining your nervous system to become aware of the tension happening unconsciously, you can reset involuntary muscle tension, break the chronic stress cycle, and finally enjoy lasting postural comfort and ease of movement.

What People Are Saying About ELEVATED SOMATICS
“I went to see Gabriel for what I assumed were unrelated pains - chronic pain in my lower back and a more episodic injury to one shoulder and arm. A few amazing sessions later what I came away with was not only a massively improved me, but also a comprehensive understanding of the root cause of my pains and an almost miraculous ability to unwind them on my own!”
