SOMA
EMBODIED FREEDOM: SOMATIC HEALING LIBRARY
So many of us carry tension and emotions without realizing their weight. You might feel stuck in old cycles, disconnected from your body, or unsure how to release what you’re holding.
Soma: Embodied Freedom was created to give you practical tools and guided practices to help you return to yourself, release what no longer serves you, and create space for clarity, flow, and freedom in daily life with somatic healing.
Does any of this sound familiar:
- You wake up with a heavy body, and you can’t seem to shift the tension
- You’re ready to heal and move on from trauma, but you don’t know where to start
- You have tried various modalities, but nothing seems to last or help in the long term
- Or you’re stuck in emotional loops you don’t understand?
This is for you if:
-
-
You feel like your body is carrying emotions or stress you can’t fully release.
-
You’re ready to shift old patterns that keep you stuck.
-
You want practices that help you feel calmer, clearer, and more free in daily life.
-
You’re curious about somatic healing and want guidance you can return to anytime.
- You’ve worked with Rio before and want tools to keep the work going between sessions.

“I recently completed the Soma course… I found it extremely helpful—especially learning how to better handle my emotions and understand my nervous system on a deeper level. Rio is amazing—she knows a lot, is very supportive, and clear with her explanations.
What I especially appreciated were the videos for every exercise, making it easier to follow along and practice correctly.
This course gave me practical tools I can apply in my daily life… I’ve really noticed a difference in how I manage stress and connect with myself. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being and understand how their body and mind work together.”

“Working with Rio opened my eyes to just how much I was holding in my body without even realizing it.
Through the hypnosis, parts work, and somatic exercises, I was able to uncover and release emotions and tension I didn’t know existed. It has been surprising, powerful, and deeply freeing.
Rio has an incredible ability to guide you safely into these explorations and create space for real transformation. I look forward to our continued work together.”

Meet Rio
Somatic Therapist + Naturotherapist
My journey into the healing arts began in 2007 through shadow work with Taoism, Tolle, Transcendentalism, and heavy metal music.
In 2009, learning Reiki became a turning point for deep personal healing. From that moment forward, I dedicated myself to studying holistic modalities.
In university I studied Religion and Philosophy, with a concentration on Mysticism and Eastern Traditions. During this time, I also began distilling herbs and learning about natural medicine and nutrition to heal my own digestive issues.
In 2011, I began hosting Full Moon gatherings (and never really stopped) and over the next decade, I worked in music and marketing – while devoting weekends to retreats and trainings to deepen my healing practice.
In 2018 I began teaching Reiki, and soon after traveled to Peru to become certified in Restorative Yoga. It was in Cusco that I experienced a profound somatic release of decades-old trauma stored in my body. I was hooked. From that moment on, somatic work became my focus, my fascination, and my pursuit.
By 2020, while living on Lake Atitlán, I launched a podcast interviewing alternative wellness practitioners and decided to commit to my holistic practice full-time. That year, I founded Inner Alchemy Academy — an online space for embodied healing, energy work certification and personal transformation.
Now with 16 years experience, I help people release blockages and process emotion, connect with their subconscious and find alignment. My integrative practice bridges ancient wisdom with modern science to guide you to reconnect with your mind-body, your innate wisdom, and your deepest truth.
Modalities I integrate include:
-
Somatic therapy & somatic parts work
-
Hypnosis & neuro-linguistic programming (NLP)
-
EFT (tapping) & TRE (trauma release exercises)
-
Bioenergetics, reflexology, craniosacral therapy, myofascial release, cupping, and Reiki
-
Restorative/Yin yoga & Yoga Nidra
-
Nutritional guidance & nervous system support
My heartfelt mission is to activate healers and empower women to transform trauma, reclaim their energy, and reconnect with their intuition. I specialize in supporting highly sensitive and neurodivergent women, as well as members of the LGBTQ+ community.
Through personalized sessions and immersive trainings, I offer practical tools for bioenergetic empowerment, nervous system regulation, and deep, lasting transformation.
Insurance receipts for naturopathy are available for 1:1 sessions.
I’m here to support you to reconnect, realign, and reclaim your full power.
With love,
Rio
