Sexological bodywork, Somatic experiencing and Trauma

Somatic experiencing and sexological bodywork are two distinct approaches to therapy that can be used separately or in combination, depending on the needs and goals of the individual seeking treatment. Somatic experiencing is a form of therapy that focuses on the role of the body in the healing process, with the goal of helping individuals overcome the effects of trauma. It involves techniques such as focusing on the breath, attuning to physical sensations, and working with movement and touch. Sexological bodywork, on the other hand, is a form of therapy that focuses on the connection between the body and sexuality. It aims to help individuals develop a more positive and fulfilling relationship with their own sexuality and to address any issues or challenges they may be experiencing in this area. Sexological bodywork may include techniques such as breathwork, movement, touch, and communication skills.While somatic experiencing and sexological bodywork are distinct approaches, they can be combined to address trauma and sexual issues. For example, a therapist who is trained in both somatic experiencing and sexological bodywork may be able to help an individual work through trauma that is impacting their sexual functioning and well-being. It is important to work with a qualified therapist who is trained in the appropriate techniques and approaches for addressing trauma and sexual issues.
