When anxiety lives in your body.
Tight chest, racing heart, jaw clenched without realizing it, stomach in knots before you’ve had a thought. Anxiety often shows up physically before it shows up as a worry. Sanare therapists use somatic approaches and CBT to help your body learn it’s safe to settle.
What this might look like.
Tight chest, shallow breathing, or sighing without realizing it.
Headaches, jaw tension, or shoulders that won’t drop.
Stomach upset, nausea, or digestive issues that flare with stress.
Difficulty falling asleep because your body feels “wired but tired.”
How therapy helps the body settle.
We help you notice tension early — not to fight it, but to give it a way out.
Slow, paced practices that activate your body’s natural calm response. Two minutes a day moves the needle.
Sometimes the body symptoms feel scary on their own. We work on understanding them so they stop feeling like emergencies.
Tense bodies don’t sleep well, and poor sleep makes anxiety worse. We tackle both.
