Lissa Michalak | Movement for Pain Relief

I'm Lissa Michalak, RSMT/E. I'm a somatic movement therapist and educator, and I teach people how to use their bodies' signals as information, not punishment.

I've been helping people out of pain for 36 years. I don't use AI-generated exercise lists, or with breathwork I found on TikTok (I've been teaching nervous system work since before it had a wellness rebrand).

Here, you’ll find anatomy-informed movement, nervous system resets, and real explanations for why your back hurts, your hips are tight, your jaw won't chill, and your shoulders live somewhere up near your ears.

I work with the underlying movement patterns, not just the symptoms, to get rid of recurring pain.

If you've been dealing with persistent pain and you've tried everything, you haven't tried this.

So start with the playlists. Check out some back pain info, nervous system resets, and movement basics. Then see what your body does when you stop fighting it.

Subscribe to understand your body, not just manage it.
