Pain Relief in Berkeley | Bodywork to Heal Sciatic Pain & Stress | Sara Sunstein | Ortho-Bionomy® | Somatic Therapy

“I felt enormously better after my session with you. Quite a change after unremitting discomfort for a month.”
– K.S. client

Any discomfort or pain from mild to intense, from acute to chronic, is our body’s way of saying, “Stop. Something’s not right here. Do something different.”

Sara invites you to do something differently by recognizing not only the pain, but also possibilities, here and now, for pain relief and release. Our tissues and psyche both relax when supported, contract when poked. Following this physiology, Sara does not dig in, force anything, or even judge your condition. Rather, she gently moves your body in a way that feels better to you. Given support and comfort, the body’s innate healing reflexes wake up, take the lead, and release tensions so that natural ease returns. Within a few minutes of Sara working with them, many clients say, “I feel so validated, affirmed,” as their tensions dissolve. A few sessions can help you feel better; sessions over time re-educate your body for improved resilience and lasting health.

Sara can help you release pain and stresses, increase ease, and realize well-being. She’s highly skilled with muscle, joint, and fascia problems; nerve pain such as sciatica and carpal tunnel; general stress, headaches, and computer- and device-related stresses. When posture is a factor in your symptoms, Sara addresses that too. She’s also very effective with impact injuries, trauma resolution, viscera, and rehab from surgery, including scar concerns.

Sara addresses chronic and acute pain and discomforts of all sorts:

Stress and tension
Computer, smart phone, and desk-job strains
Musculo-skeletal such as low back, neck, knee, feet, shoulder, etc
Nerve pain, including sciatica, carpal tunnel
Headaches and migraines
Pain from Lyme, fibromyalgia, IBS, arthritis, plantar fasciitis, and more…

Clients enjoy these benefits:

Increased ease, range of motion, and function
Release of stress, tensions, and patterns that hold discomfort
Activation of innate self-healing reflexes
Internal congruency
Greater resilience and vitality
Inner peace

I thought the session was excellent. It was as if I re-“occupied” my body. It is so encouraging to realize with some expert help this body of mine can actually relax and feel considerably better. Thanks again for your wonderful work.
