Chronic back pain is often due to poor posture, injuries, or muscular tension, and can profoundly impact your quality of life. Try Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement Lessons for a proactive, natural approach that can help prevent further injury and lessen the symptoms of current back pain.
1. Engage your body, mind and spirit; in slow and small movements allowing for change and improvements quickly. By using the slow small movements it quiets the parasympathetic nervous system which will reduce muscular tension.
2. Learn new movement patterns that will improve your organization, using less muscular effort and reduce stress. With less stress on the joints and muscles you will walk better, sleep better and enjoy life with more vitality.
3. Become more aware of where your body is in space creating better balance, better acture (moving posture as we are not statues) and overall flow of movement for the entire span of your life.
4. Create more strength and flexibility; increase blood flow, release your diaphragm to allow breathing to be easier and deeper - all of which can be beneficial for your back.
5. Use visualization techniques to see as much as your spine as you can. You may be surprised at how much of your spine is missing in your brain. Those parts that are missing may be where the pain is. Continue this visualization daily to see the changes that start to occur!
Learn how by using these principles you will create less muscular stress which can provide you with less pain and strain, better sleep to empower you to enjoy a better quality of life.
