Our Philosophy
Soma Haus is redefining the self-care experience with a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to healthcare. We bring together industry professionals, classes and workshops to create the most optimal environment for your body to heal.
Soma Haus is the realisation of a dream to build community that focuses on transforming the perspectives of health. We empower people to connect with their body’s innate wisdom and natural healing capacity. Stress is a real endemic, and we need to consistently show up for ourselves, to shore up our physical health and deepen our emotional reservoirs.
Together, we move beyond a reactive approach to healthcare and empower ourselves with the knowledge and body awareness to take charge of our own healing journey.
Our Core Values
We warmly invite you to Soma Haus to connect with your body’s intelligence and find your way back to well-being.
Holistic & Multidisciplinary
Holistic health involves looking at the whole person – not just the individual parts such as our stories, pathology or bones and tissues.
Every person receives quality and personalised care which is enabled by a multidisciplinary approach that promotes health by nurturing the delicate equilibrium between the mind, body spirit or story through evidence-based conventional and adjunct treatment and services.
Education Focused
We create experiences for clients to resource and learn, putting the initiative and control back into the hands of our clients. Moving from reactive to preventative healthcare, we believe that healing and growth is a non-linear process. The art of taking care of oneself begins with a deep understanding of what the body and mind truly need.
Trauma Sensitive Care
Trauma-sensitive care centres on the understanding that a person’s past and current circumstances can have long-lasting emotional, neurological, physical, social, and biological effects on a person.
This means adopting a whole-person care model and taking the time to build safe therapeutic containers for one to explore, understand and heal. Trauma sensitivity approaches are also resource-driven and focus on the well-being of a person rather than the symptoms they want to fix or suppress.
Community Centred
Soma Haus believes in authentic community-building by honouring human connection and the power of collective healing. At the heart of the work is a belief that we are not alone in this process of healing and growth.
All our offerings serve as the ‘connective tissue’ that allows each of us to find belonging in ourselves and the community at large. A philosophy of feeling good, doing good and taking care of ourselves can bolster the impact we bring to everyone and everything around us. All offerings contribute to the Sliding Scale Program that makes healthcare more accessible.
