Somatic Rehabilitation
The Human Health Project

Somatic Research

To change the experience of your function and your structure is only possible when creating a better integration between the two. It is the mobilization of your own inner awareness that will be responsible for this new experience within your own body.

Especially now ‘The Book of Life’ has been revealed (meaning the Human Genome Project), and we know almost everything about our human structure, it is becoming more and more important to make the link with human function. After all, it is the combination of structure (eg. bones, muscles) with function (movement) that makes us alive. The difference between a 'body' and a 'living body that can sense and move' is nothing else but ‘internal first person awareness’. It is only now that we are starting to understand the human potential that is within all of us. Almost all existing research ever done in the field of health care and education has not incorporated any somatic understandings. However, a clear correlation can be detected between the still so many mysteries and complications in the field of health care and the lack of somatic understanding. Time and money on research can be spent in a more efficient way with more interesting results when somatically grounded. Future ‘functional’ research will only become useful and revolutionary when somatic concepts as ‘first person’, ‘the reflexes of stress’, and the concept of Sensory Motor Amnesia will be integrated throughout the project.

Unfortunately, this has not been done yet. It is one of the goals of The Somatic Health Center of St. Helena to develop a closer relationship between the field of Somatics and the world of rehabilitation, education, health & wellness. The Somatic Health Center is very interested in assisting future research and developing ‘somatically functional’ programs. By expanding the frontiers of rehabilitation and human potential, it will become possible for many to finally understand who we really are. Even though the human race has succeeded in climbing the highest mountains and while astronauts are discovering new frontiers in outer space, the time has come to actually start exploring the fundamental potential of human awareness from a first person perspective. The results will lead to a society that will be more at ease and less at dis-ease…

Pain is nothing else but the result of a weakness in your awareness. It is interesting to do research on pain and the flexibility of pain, but how interesting would it be to do research on the flexibility of awareness?

The Human Health Project

It is the strong opinion of The Somatic Health Center that Somatic Rehabilitation has to be accessible to all. Its fundamental value to human existence can not be questioned due to its simplicity and clarity. Patients in our hospitals as well as in our clinics, businessmen, athletes as well as our children in the schools all have the potential to be exposed to the somatic concepts.

The Human Health Project is an initiative from The Somatic Health Center to develop somatically grounded health programs and educational programs throughout the world. The idea is to develop a network of unique practitioners that will get together for periods of time at a certain place. This ‘think tank’ of knowledge will consist of practitioners from the field of healthcare, bodywork, intuitive medicine, education, wellness and nutrition. The latest in medicine, medical science and technology will need to be available as well. It will be a full integration of the latest knowledge and technology in structural and functional modalities worldwide. Imagine what would happen if the people at the top of their field actually would take the time to understand other modalities and expand from there ? The time has come to learn from each other and converge our skill, knowledge and experience. An atmosphere of working, learning and evolving together would be the goal. New programs will be developed that will lead to breakthroughs towards a higher quality of human health on this planet.

Proper human health should be available for all. For free. That is only possible when these programs will be integrated into main stream society. The Human Health Project is interested in further developing the core necessities for successful human existence.

Back pain, whiplash, heart attacks, strokes etc. are symptoms of non-successful human existence. Behavioural problems, aggression, ADD, cancer and diabetes are also symptoms of non-successful human existence. The Human Health Project is only interested in further developing this new line of ‘human education’ that will eventually prevent the existence and development of the above mentioned symptoms.

The Human Health Project needs your help ! The Somatic Health Center of St. Helena is a small independent entity with a very direct focus towards expanding the frontiers of rehabilitation and human potential. Support, energy and finances are necessary to move forwards towards the next step. The World Health Organisation, Health Associations, Research Foundations, anti-aging projects, universities, insurance companies, health care governments or private enterprises/donations are being asked for their support. If you think you can help, please don't hesitate to contact The Somatic Health Center.

Thank you.
