Spend 60 seconds a day thinking about your health.
A client asked me the other day about Feldenkrais and I thought I'd take the time to do some research and see what is was all about.
What is it? The Feldenkrais Method is a process for improving human life through breathing, posture, awareness of sensation and movement. Is it popular? In Australia, more than 1000 people use the technique of all ages and sizes. What underpins the philosophy? It is based on neuroplasticity which effectively means rewiring of the nervous system. What does a session with a practitioner look like? Practitioners use movement, touch, guided imagery and mindful body awareness to stimulate the brain to make useful and lasting improvements to movement and posture. Do practitioners have to be trained? Yes there are many experienced practitioners who have undergone a certification process. How can Feldenkrais help? Proponents of the method claim it can help manage pain and musculoskeletal injuries. People often report improvements in their movement, posture and subjective sense of well-being.
