So what exactly is the Feldenkrais Method?

The Feldenkrais Method is a unique approach to healing and personal growth used daily by people around the world. At its core, it’s about learning to move - and to live - with greater awareness.

In a session, a practitioner provides support and guidance through gentle touch and verbal cues, helping you notice patterns of movement and tension that are often so deeply ingrained, you might not even realize they exist. Once brought into awareness, these patterns can be softened, reorganized, and replaced with new ways of moving that better serve your well-being. Think of it as updating or rebooting your operating system.

So what are the “programs” you’re running that may no longer be useful? For many people, habitual tension shows up as chronic back, neck, or joint pain. Others live in a state of constant stress - shoulders hunched, breath shallow, body braced for impact - unable to fully let go. Over time, this nervous system overdrive can lead to burnout, fatigue, or even depression. And for countless individuals, trauma leaves its imprint in the body. These old stories are written not just in our memories but in the way we hold ourselves, the way we move through space, the way we shrink or expand in response to life.

Feldenkrais invites us to ask: What if there’s another way? By slowing down, exploring new ways of moving, and cultivating awareness, we discover options where we once felt stuck. Small internal shifts ripple outward - our movement becomes easier, our breathing fuller, our mind calmer. We learn not just how to move differently, but how to be differently.

Our postural muscles hold our history, but they don’t have to dictate our future. Through Feldenkrais, we can gently loosen the grip of the past and step into new patterns of freedom, resilience, and ease.

When was the last time you paused to notice how you sit, stand, or breathe? That simple moment of awareness could be the first step toward rewriting the story your body has been carrying all along.

A method based on research and long-standing praxis

Research has shown that the Feldenkrais Method can have positive effects on movement and health. Studies indicate that it can improve balance, reduce pain, and enhance overall well-being.

The method's focus on movement and awareness aligns with principles of neuroplasticity. This means that by changing how we move, we can also change how our brains function.

The Feldenkrais Method offers a unique approach to improving movement and health that can lead to profound changes in people's bodies and lives.

Whether you are looking to reduce pain, improve flexibility, or simply feel better in your body, the Feldenkrais Method can be a valuable tool.
