SPRe Bodywork reconciles the split between body, mind, and emotions.

The body is constantly informing us about our “gut reaction” in all situations. Like the maintenance of any system, the sooner we are able to hear the subtle messages of discontent, the better we can avoid greater disappointments and pain. The new medical field of psychoneuroimmunology studies this working relationship of our mind and emotions, our nervous systems and their impact on our immune system. SPRe Bodywork is an innovative application of this holistic approach to health.

Unique Aspects:

• Each 75 minute session includes a combination of seated dialog, movement education, and structurally-based bodywork. The bodywork takes place with the client fully clothed on the practitioners table.
• The application of a gentle elliptical movement through each joint and body segment creates lasting shifts in structure, provides greater mobility, prevents degeneration, and allows for sustained pain relief.
• Conversation and exploratory dialog uncover the links between physical tension, emotional patterns and belief systems.
• The utilization of therapeutic principles for client safety, confidentiality and secure boundaries make the goals of the client the priority. The relationship between client and practitioner is critical when exploring the relational issues which exist with family and career.
• Clients discover the uniqueness of their personal physical structure and how to move efficiently and prevent injury.

The development of physical symptoms in response to seemingly overwhelming feelings or thoughts is SOMATIZATION. Our physical bodies react before our minds recognize what to do with the information.
