Item Description

Are you experiencing chronic pain or recovering from injury? Or would you like to improve your golf swing or your half-lotus?

Functional Integration® is a hands-on form of tactile, kinesthetic communication. The Feldenkrais® practitioner communicates to the student how he/she organizes his/her body and hints, through gentle touching and movement, how to move in more expanded functional motor patterns.

The Functional Integration lesson should relate to a desire, intention, or need of the student. The learning process is carried out without the use of any invasive or forceful procedure. Through rapport and respect for the student’s abilities, qualities, and integrity, the practitioner/teacher creates an environment in which the student can learn comfortably.

Lessons take place with the student comfortably clothed, lying or sitting on a table designed for the purpose.

Item Special Note

The Feldenkrais Method® is an integration of movement, neuroscience and psychology, which creates the conditions in which new healthier patterns of moving, feeling and acting can emerge, regardless of age or ability, and is internationally recognized for its ability to engage the plasticity of our brain to create remarkable change and improvement.

Over time we each develop unconscious habit patterns which increase our vulnerability to injury, discomfort, pain, stress and feelings of anxiety. The more our posture and movements maintain these patterns, the more we are effected in the present moment; emotionally, physically and cognitively.
