Restorative Movement
Over the years, my focus on integration within our structure, led me to develop "Restorative Movement".
This approach is about moving with conscious awareness and sensing our underlying fluid nature.
We use an assortment of balls: hard & soft, large & small, along with a softer roller to work with the body's connective tissue, or fascia. Connective tissue surrounds all aspects of the body - including muscles, bones, nerves and organs.
Current research shows that connective tissue is a body wide system that supports, protects and stabilizes.
This system is responsive and adaptable.
​
Stress and dehydration of the connective tissue is often the underlying cause of daily aches and stiffness that leads to chronic pain - adversely impact posture and the way we breathe.
