A Thoughtful, Hands-On Approach

Somatic Healing & Alignment is a small, focused practice with clinics in Edina MN and Lakeview MN, offering body-centered care grounded in hands-on skill, thoughtful pacing, and respect for how the body adapts. The work here supports regulation, awareness, and resilience by meeting the body where it is and supporting change that can be integrated and sustained.

The practice offers Structural Integration, Somatic Experiencing®, and Esalen® Massage. While each service has its own structure and intention, all care is guided by the same principles—close attention to how the body responds, nervous system awareness, and thoughtful pacing rather than force or quick fixes.

Care is attentive and individualized, shaped through ongoing observation and how the body responds from one session to the next.

Guided by Shared Principles

Both practitioners are Board Certified Structural Integration Practitioners, working from a consistent structural foundation while each brings a distinct perspective to their sessions. Care is guided by observation, consent, and responsiveness, allowing sessions to adjust to what is present rather than following a fixed protocol.

Client Reviews

★★★★★
“I’ve been doing the Structural Integration series and can already feel a real difference. After three back surgeries, my pain has been intense for years, and this work is easing it and improving my posture.”
★★★★★
“I worked with Xavier for a 3-series, and his deep understanding of anatomy and body patterns made a huge difference. As someone with scoliosis, I felt completely supported, safe, and able to relax as my body began to unwind long-held patterns.”
★★★★★
“I received the best massage I’ve ever had at Somatic Healing & Alignment. Natalie’s intuitive touch released tightness and brought real relief to stiff, painful areas.”
