Welcome to Soma Restorative Wellness
Formerly Lotus Evolutions Wellness, Soma Restorative Wellness was born from a desire to return to our roots while embracing growth, reinvention, and evolution.
The word Soma means "of the body," and beautifully reflects the philosophy that guides our work. We believe the body is constantly communicating with us through sensation, symptoms, tension, fatigue, digestion, emotions, and energy. What we often experience as discomfort or dysfunction may actually be the body's way of asking for our attention.
Over time, we have come to appreciate the profound ways stress, trauma, lifestyle, environment, and daily habits become stored within the body. As the saying goes, "your issues are in your tissues." While the mind can rationalize and override what we feel, the body continually provides feedback about what is and isn't working. The more we learn to listen, support, and restore the body naturally, the greater our capacity for physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.
At Soma, our work is guided by two foundational philosophies:
Restore Flow. Restore Health.
Life depends on movement and flow. Healthy circulation, digestion, lymphatic drainage, elimination, breath, and emotional expression all require movement. When stagnation develops, the body often begins to show signs of imbalance. By supporting healthy flow throughout the body, we help create the conditions for greater vitality, resilience, and restoration.
Beauty Begins in the Nervous System.
The nervous system influences nearly every aspect of health, including recovery, sleep, digestion, elimination, hormone balance, immune function, and emotional well-being. When the nervous system becomes overwhelmed by chronic stress, the effects often become visible both internally and externally.
At Soma, we recognize that many of the concerns people experience—whether fatigue, digestive issues, weight gain, poor recovery, inflammation, or accelerated aging—often share a common thread: a body that is struggling to regulate and restore itself. Our goal is to help clients reconnect with their body's innate wisdom, restore balance, and cultivate greater health from the inside out.
A Private Sanctuary
Healing unfolds best in a calm, regulated environment.
At Soma Restorative Wellness, we intentionally limit the number of clients in our space at any given time, creating a quiet, personal, and deeply restorative experience. Our sanctuary is designed for those who value presence, intention, and care — where services and therapies can be thoughtfully combined to support true restoration of body, mind, and nervous system.
This is not a spa experience.
It is guided, intentional, and deeply personal.
Meet Chad
Chad brings more than twenty years of experience in public affairs, communications, and relationship building to Soma Restorative Wellness. After meeting Keri in 2020, he became deeply interested in the connection between lifestyle, wellness, and long-term vitality.
Inspired by Keri's holistic approach to health, Chad embraced meaningful lifestyle changes that resulted in significant improvements to his own well-being, including weight loss, improved energy, and the ability to discontinue cholesterol medication under his doctor's care. Experiencing these changes firsthand strengthened his belief in the body's remarkable capacity for restoration when given the right support.
In 2022, Chad joined Keri in co-founding Lotus Evolutions Wellness, which has since evolved into Soma Restorative Wellness. Today, he oversees administration, client relations, operations, and community outreach, helping create the welcoming and supportive environment that defines the Soma experience.
Whether you're attending a class, visiting for a wellness service, or simply stopping by to learn more, Chad will often be one of the first friendly faces to greet you.
Meet Keri
Keri Berardinelli, BCCHT, is a Board-Certified Colon Hydrotherapist, licensed aesthetician, wellness educator, and author with more than twenty years of experience in the spa and wellness industry.
Before relocating to Arizona, Keri owned and operated a successful wellness clinic in Ohio, where she spent a decade helping clients improve digestive health, restore balance, and support the body's natural healing processes through colon hydrotherapy and holistic wellness practices. Her lifelong passion has been helping people feel healthier, more connected, and empowered through natural approaches to well-being.
As the founder of Soma Restorative Wellness, Keri's work is guided by two core philosophies: Restore Flow. Restore Health. and Beauty Begins in the Nervous System. She believes that many of today's most common health challenges—including digestive dysfunction, chronic stress, poor recovery, hormone imbalance, and accelerated aging—are deeply connected to nervous system overload and disconnection from the body's natural rhythms.
Keri's diverse training includes colon hydrotherapy, holistic nutrition, quantum biology, somatic facial therapy, buccal massage, aromatherapy, elemental reflexology, restorative wellness therapies, and nervous system-informed approaches to health and aging. She is also pursuing instructor-level certification in colon hydrotherapy education as part of Soma's future educational initiatives.
As the author of The Quantum Beauty Method, Keri explores the profound relationship between nervous system health, digestion, lifestyle, stress, and natural vitality. Her work encourages clients to move beyond symptom management and develop a deeper understanding of the body's innate intelligence and capacity for restoration.
Keri's mission is simple: to help clients cultivate greater awareness, vitality, and resilience through restorative wellness practices that support the body, mind, and nervous system as an integrated whole.
Meet Chastine
