WELCOME
My name is Dr Hillel Braude.
I am a Functional Medicine Doctor, Feldenkrais Method Practitioner, Philosopher and Neuro-Ethicist, and Founder-Director of the SomaticWell Center.
The SomaticWell Center uniquely integrates somatic movement and education practices emphasizing the felt-experience of having a body, with scientifically validated neuro-technologies for enhancing personal well-being.
This website provides a provides a portal into these various therapeutic modalities – including the Feldenkrais Method, Sound & Light therapy - the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), Binaural Acoustic Utilization Device (BAUD), Photobiomodulation - and Biofeedback modalities - meditation and measurement of Heart Rate Variability (HRV).
These life-enhancing therapies may be applied separately, or together. Most of the SomaticWell therapeutic services may be administered remotely. I also provide in-person consultations in Afula, Israel.
The SomaticWell Academy provides educational programs and retreats applying somatic education and movement practices together with higher-learning in a group context. Online teachings include: Neuro-Somatic Variations, Somatics as Spiritual Exercise monthly meetings, and more.
