In a world where many carry invisible wounds, true healing goes beyond talk therapy or physical remedies—it requires a gentle, Spirit-led return to safety within the body. At His Healing House, we believe healing happens when spirit, soul, and body come into alignment with the truth of who God created us to be.
One powerful way we see this is through Faith-Based and Holy Spirit-Led Somatic Bodywork. This approach allows for deep emotional and physical transformation by inviting the Holy Spirit into the process of restoring peace to the nervous system and releasing stored trauma.
đź’› What Is Somatic Bodywork?
Somatic bodywork refers to therapeutic methods that guide the body to process and release trauma through movement, breath, awareness, and gentle physical touch. Unlike traditional bodywork, which focuses on muscles or joints, somatic healing accesses the nervous system and emotional memory stored in the body.
When led by the Holy Spirit, this work becomes a sacred and safe space where people not only feel physical release but also experience spiritual renewal, inner peace, and a sense of God’s presence.
“The body keeps the score of trauma—not just the brain.” – Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, M.D., author of The Body Keeps the Score
đź§ Understanding the Nervous System: From Stuck to Safe
Our nervous system is God-designed to protect us. When a threat is detected, it activates:
- Sympathetic mode (fight or flight): heart races, muscles tighten, anxiety spikes
- Parasympathetic dorsal vagal mode (freeze or shutdown): disconnection, numbness, depression, fatigue
These are helpful short-term responses, but chronic trauma traps the body in these states. Even long after a trauma has passed, the body can remain stuck in a constant state of stress or shutdown, blocking physical healing and emotional regulation.
Somatic bodywork helps reset the nervous system by allowing the body to complete these responses and shift into ventral vagal state—a place of safety, connection, and healing.
✨ How the Holy Spirit Guides the Healing
At His Healing House, we go beyond technique. We invite the Holy Spirit to lead every session. This spiritual partnership ensures that the work is:
- Safe and trauma-informed
- Gentle and client-led
- Spiritually rooted in truth
- Empowered by God’s peace and presence
We believe true healing is both natural and supernatural, and when trauma is released in the presence of Jesus, it restores not just the nervous system—but the soul.

Increased Energy and Mobility - Clients often report feeling “lighter” and more physically free as trauma held in the body releases.
Reduced Anxiety and Depression - Somatic bodywork helps calm the mind by calming the body first—a proven technique for those with PTSD, anxiety, or mood disorders.

Greater Emotional Resilience - By reprocessing trauma safely, the body learns it is no longer in danger. This allows for better emotional regulation and confidence.

Sense of Inner Safety and Peace - When trauma is released, clients report feeling “more themselves,” more grounded, and connected to God.
Restored Sense of Identity and Wholeness - This isn’t just about stress relief—it’s about aligning your body with the truth that you are safe, loved, and made whole in Christ.
🌸 What to Expect During a Session
Each session is a unique journey of listening to your body and the Holy Spirit. You may experience:
- Breathwork and grounding in prayer
- Gentle touch or guided movement
- Tuning into physical sensations with safety
- Spirit-led truth over trauma, shame, or fear
- Safe physical expression
You do not need to talk through the trauma. The body knows how to heal when it is given the space and support to do so.
🕊️ You Were Made for Freedom
Whether you’ve experienced trauma recently or decades ago, there is healing available for your body, mind, and soul. Jesus came to bind up the brokenhearted and set the captives free (Isaiah 61:1), and somatic bodywork is one way we see that freedom manifest in our clients every day.
Your body is not the problem—it’s the messenger. And healing begins when we listen with compassion, truth, and faith.
Let us walk with you as you release what no longer serves you and return to the peace and wholeness that is your birthright in Christ.
