WHAT MODALITY IS THIS?

FELDENKRAIS

by ...
(Feldenkrais Practitioner)


The Feldenkrais Method is an educational system intended to give a greater functional awareness of the self. The method uses body movement as the primary vehicle for learning. It is perhaps due to this focus on body movements that the Feldenkrais Method is often classified as a complementary and alternative medicine. The Feldenkrais Method attracts the attention of those who want to improve their movement repertoire (as dancers, musicians, artists), who want to reduce their pain or limitations in movement, or who want to use the method as a way to improve their well-being and personal development. Advocates claim the Feldenkrais Method often improves movement-related pain (e.g. pain in backs, knees, hips, shoulders), and leads to better functioning in cases of stroke or cerebral palsy. A central tenet of the Feldenkrais Method is that improving ability to move can improve one's overall well-being. from Wikipedia.
