What is a collective?
Unlike traditional brick & mortar establishments, our network is fluid and decentralized—our practitioners operate from different spaces and backgrounds, recognizing that no singular approach fits all. We may incorporate touch, movement, meditation, ritual, or other personalized approaches, united by the shared understanding that healing is non-linear. If you have questions about a specific modality, you’re welcome to reach out to any one of us, at any time.
We honor community in all its diverse shapes and forms—especially those traditions and lineages that make this work possible.
Somalchemy intends to create a safe and welcoming environment for all, including but not limited to our friends who identify as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and Disabled. Several of our practitioners have experience working with marginalized populations, and all of us are actively committed to making care work a more equitable and inclusive practice. We know that cost is often the greatest barrier to health and well-being, and we may be able to offer flexible pricing options or help you schedule a session through government and locally-funded programs.
Those of us based in the Milwaukee, WI region humbly acknowledge that we live and practice on the ancestral lands of the Kickapoo, Peoria, Potawatomi, Menominee, Myaamia, Winnebago (Ho-Chunk), and Očhéthi Šakówiŋ Nations. We offer gratitude to the ancestors and wisdom keepers of these lands, and we remain committed to ongoing learning, listening, and repair.
