The word, "education" fits with the word "somatic" better than do the terms "therapy" or "treatment". You learn something new that works better.
"Therapy" and "treatment" imply "getting rid of symptoms" -- a return to your "pre-injury" condition. "Education" implies development -- better off than before.
Clinical Somatic Education extinguishes pain far faster than conventional physical therapy or "alternative" methods of treatment. It reduces the likelihood of re-injury and leaves you better than before injury.

Hanna Somatic Education (HSE) is a clinical approach used to correct (CLICK for partial list:) chronic pain conditions commonly referred for osteopathy, physical therapy, chiropractic, massage therapy, and other modalities. Used with standard therapies, HSE improves their efficacy dramatically. Used alone, HSE is commonly sufficient.
Every injury or stress-period leaves an imprint in memory that shows up as a muscular tension habit (muscle/movement memory) that often continues indefinitely as if the injury or stress situation is still happening. Changes of movement and posture of this type are so common that people don't recognize their significance and commonly attribute them to aging or to, "that just how he (or she) is", or "how I am."
What distinguishes HSE from other approaches is the use of "the pandicular response" (or "pandiculation") an action pattern related to yawning done instinctively by all animals upon arising from rest, going into activity, to refresh the body-sense and control of movement. View the video, below.

Everyone has seen and done pandiculation, but most people misunderstand it as "stretching".
Pandiculation is the correct name for the natural action people commonly do upon waking up.
You may have noticed that you don't and can't really relax completely, that you always hold tension.
Here's why: brain conditioning
When you experience physical or emotional trauma, or long-term stress, a memory imprint forms.
Most therapy seeks to "fix the patient" by acting upon the patient chemically (drugs, ultrasound), mechanically (manipulation, stretching, or surgery), or electrically (TENS, electric stim) -- rather than having the patient regain control of their own body. You can't change conditioning, from outside. So, after therapy (hours or days), the patient's previous, injury-caused conditioning takes over and symptoms return.
When therapy uses stretching and strengthening, that doesn't work very well, either. Stretching doesn't work because it works on the effect (tight muscles) rather than the cause (brain conditioning formed suddenly, at the time of injury). Strengthening doesn't work because the pain is caused by muscles that are already too tight. It's the wrong direction for successful therapy.

Pain and restricted movement from muscular tension (which may seem like muscular adhesions) can't be permanently "fixed" from outside. For a lasting change, the "fix" must occur from within; the client/patient must correct themselves. Hanna somatic education (HSE) guides and assists the client/patient through the process.
Rather than being slower than therapeutics, results of clinical sessions of HSE come faster and are far more predictable. You'll feel results immediately during the session, results that last, afterward. Most conditions resolve completely in between two and eight sessions.
You can see differences between HSE and common therapeutic modalities in a comparison chart and understand why by comparing the different approaches they take, which show up as the results.
