Still Hurting After Trying Everything? There's Another Way
Maybe you’ve been told your pain is muscular, postural, emotional, mysterious, or just something to live with.
Maybe you’ve tried deep tissue, PT, acupuncture, or ice packs and stretches—some things helped, but nothing really stuck.
​
Maybe you already use massage regularly, but you wonder if it's possible to get the same relief without feeling like you've been beat up when you get off the massage table.
It’s not that you’re doing it wrong. It’s that the old model of treating pain—like it’s purely mechanical—is outdated.
Pain isn’t just about your tissues.
It’s about your nervous system interpreting those tissues as unsafe.
At Somatic Impact, I work with the system that’s calling the shots.
Why Somatic Impact is Different: Gentle, Neuroscience-Based Bodywork
There’s no “fixing” here. No digging for knots. No poking at pain.
This is bodywork grounded in neuroscience and pain science.
Here, the focus is on helping your system feel safe, supported, and heard.
Because when your nervous system stops bracing, your whole body changes how it feels—sometimes profoundly.
Our Approach Is:
-
Somatic: guided by internal experience, not external correction​
-
​Gentle - pressure isn't power
-
Informed - based on modern neuroscience, not old myths
-
Trauma-sensitive - always working at your pace, with consent and care
Who Can Benefit from Somatic Bodywork?
-
Living with chronic or unexplained pain
-
Recovering from injury or surgery
-
Navigating PTSD, anxiety, or trauma stored in the body
-
Carrying body shame or feeling disconnected from your own experience

-
Curious about new ways to care for yourself
-
Ready to reconnect with your body in a more compassionate way​
Somatic therapy offers a gentle yet profound path to healing by honoring the body's innate wisdom.
It's a journey of attuning to the physical sensations where stress and trauma are held, allowing you to release old patterns and reconnect with your authentic self.

Meet Your Therapist: Lovelace Linares
My career began with a simple goal: to fix what was broken. But years of practice led to a more profound question: what if nothing is broken?
This is the story of how I had to unlearn the old rules of bodywork and discover a new language through pain science—a language of safety, not force.
It's the evolution of an approach that questions everything we think we know about pain in order to find what truly helps us heal.
What Clients Are Saying
Sue Karsten
“I have been to many massage therapists over the years and after leaving his clinic for the first time I felt better than I have ever felt after a massage. The effects lasted much longer also. His interview was very thorough and I could tell that he was more interested in restoring my body to a healthy state, rather than just giving a massage."
Eric Bloodworth
"I was blown away with how smooth the flow went with the massage. It was like no other massage I had ever received in my life. There was never any harsh strong moves but yet the tension and the pain went away. I was so relaxed I almost fell asleep a time or two."
Amy Fields
“I always feel better after an appointment with Lovelace. He is a master at finding a way to ease the pain in my shoulders and neck. He wants to truly help and always teaches me a few ways to work on muscle discomfort on my own as well. A very good experience.”

When the body feels safe, everything changes
​
The shift may be subtle at first: a breath you didn't realize you were holding
​
A release of tension you stopped noticing
​
A sense of ease returning to a space that's felt locked down for years
​
That's not just relief
​
That's somatic impact - the kind that lasts
