Feldenkrais and Acquired Brain Injury Awareness Week 2014

LISTEN TO Cat's ABI + Feldenkrais testimonial

Much to my surprise I find myself working more and more with people with Acquired Brain Injury. Along with private clients, including people with ABI, stroke, and MS, I am  now teaching group Awareness Through Movement classes to Headway clients: what a wonderful setting to be applying this work!

Feldenkais can bring about meaningful change in movement and behaviour, regrooving the neurological pathways of the damaged brain. Cat gave me a wonderful metaphor, as a way to think about recovery from ABI. It's as if the injured brain has had an earthquake. The normal terrain has been disrupted, irrevocably. All the usual pathways have been upturned, sunk into a void, been buried. Doing this work allows the beginning of a goat track to form. With patient repetition and inquiry, the goat track becomes wide enough for a person to walk the track. Then two people sides by side, then a bike, a cart, a car until there is a clear road, and finally a  motorway! But as Cat says in this audio, its a long patient process. HAVE A LISTEN!

 Thank you Headway for seeking me out!

How can Feldenkrais help you?

This short video by my colleague Michael is a real delight, and helps you to understand the way Feldenkrais can benefit you.

What is PAIN really?

1 in 5 Australians suffer from chronic pain. This video was a joint project of GP Access and the Hunter Integrated Pain Service.

Chronic pain specialists suggest exploring a variety of approaches to support the management of chronic pain, including brain retraining through movement that is free from any fear, just like Feldenkrais Awareness through Movement lessons!

And here, famous Neuroscience researcher Lorimer Mosely describes the neurology of Chronic pain
