Do You Have Pain?
Chronic pain can creep into your life, almost without your knowing how. Maybe it started with a little stiffness that used to go away once you got up and going, but now your pain stays with you throughout the day…or keeps you up at night…or prevents you from doing the things you enjoy. The Feldenkrais Method® of movement can be very effective for managing this kind of pain.
How is Feldenkrais Different?
The Feldenkrais Method is different from medical interventions, such as physical therapy, which tends to focus on treating a specific condition or injury. In fact, it is important to note that the Feldenkrais Method is not a medical intervention at all! It is an educational intervention.
Feldenkrais lessons focus on a re-educating the whole person—body and mind. It does this through a process of integrating movement patterns that support healthy functioning. The end result is that you will learn to move with greater comfort, ease, and awareness.
My students frequently mention a reduction in the symptoms of pain (such as back, shoulder, hip, and foot pain) which often develop over time as the result of repetitive misuse of the body. Individuals with more widespread types of pain like fibromyalgia often report that the gentleness of the lessons enables them to experience the joy of movement without provoking a flare-up of symptoms.
