Did you know that deep, diaphragmatic laughter can trigger a powerful vagal nerve response, calming your entire nervous system? This somatic release technique uses gentle stimulation of the intercostal muscles and rib cage to encourage an involuntary laughter response, releasing stored tension in the thoracic region.

Did you know the axilla and lateral torso are dense with nerve endings, making them key zones for releasing stored tension? 🤔 This technique uses rapid, light-touch stimulation on the serratus anterior and latissimus dorsi to trigger an involuntary laughter response, regulating the nervous system.
