The
following excerpts by Frank Wildman, PhD are
provided to help identify
key relationships among the mind
and body. Whether you are a health
professional or a lay person, an
athlete or a couch potato, these
are offered to aquaint you with
the potential for a healthier and
more intelligent body using the
Feldenkrais Method.
Feldenkrais has far-ranging applications
in biomechanics and neuromuscular function. It addresses the goal
to achieve more efficient movement as well as the desire to alleviate
pain. Therapeutic uses include many common disorders, recovery
from injury and problems associated with aging. In this regard,
it is as much about improving the condition of one's life as it
is the body. Changing the way we think about these subjects is
the first step toward unlocking the benefits of healthier movement.
