SHIATSU
(individual)
Well-being through Relaxation and Regeneration
Shiatsu
is a Japanese art which, like acupuncture, stimulates and
balances the body's energy through the use of natural pressure
applied to the meridians and the reflected areas of the
body. Shiatsu helps to combat stress, muscular tensions,
strengthens the weaker areas, and regulates the functions
of the internal organs, including the immune system The
practicioner uses techniques of elongation, massage and
structural relaxation. Through touch they are able to activate
the innate mechanism of rebalancing in the patient, which
brings about a great feeling of well-being in the body,
mind and spirit.

ANTI-STRESS
MASSAGE
(individual)
The
patient must learn to run their own body in order to restore
serenity and well-being.This massage is based on the use of
several techniques, including shiatsu and foot reflexology.
The pressure applied and the alternating therapies used depend
on the specific needs of the patient .An energetic, painless
pressure stimulates and elongates the body. Stress creates
a continuous contraction of the muscles that can shorten and
bend them. For this reason, every localised contraction is
a sign of a certain type of stress.
During the entire treatment, the masseur synchronizes his
or her breathing with that of the patient and works slowly
in order to bring about calm and tranquillity.

HARMONISED
MOVEMENT
(individual or for groups)
FUNCTIONAL YOGA
Hatha Yoga uses the study of numerous positions, breathing
techniques, relaxation and concentration, to introduce and
prepare us for Yoga's widest and purest aim: the union of
mind and body.Functional Yoga enters into this ancient discipline
with a modern approach based on scientific knowledge of anatomical
functions.This exploration ranges fromfocussing on a wide
range of movement to the awareness of the smallest parts of
our bodies in motion.The aim is to learn to move, to breathe,
and to relax in any condition and within any relationship
with the environment.This is a method which addresses anyone
who wishes to explore and improve their range and ability
of movement. It compliments any type of sport or physical
activity.Yoga, as well as being easily integrated into our
daily lives, is also a path of precise scientific research
which accompanies us in our knowledge of our deepest human
nature.

FOOT
REFLEXOLOGY
(individual) is an ancient diagnostic and therapeutic method
developed in the Orient over 3,000 years ago.Physical equilibrium
means perfect energy and blood flow. This flow is maintained
at its highest levels through impulses in the nervous system
that are carried to the periferal areas of our bodies. This
equilibrium can be interrupted by our old daily enemy, stress.
All of our organs, in varying degrees, are effected.Reflexology
works through the stimulation of specific areas of the foot,
and is helpful in reducing stress, improving circulation,
and unblocking energy paths. This is the key term for all
reflexology theories: energy paths. According to this theory,
each specific area of the foot corresponds to an organ of
the human body. To better understand this axiom, imagine the
human body divided along vertical lines, the energy lines
that start from the internal organs and run to the limbs.The
organs and blood vessels that are on the same line influence
each other, and in the presence of any type of anomaly, all
of the parts are involved and not only the one ailing part.A
strong but pleasant finger pressure is applied on these specific
areas to help the principal organ and all of the organ that
are on that same line. It is the simplicity of this therapy
that makes it so interesting and effective.

POSTURAL
REBALANCING
Feldenkrais Method (individual or for groups)
According
to Postural Rebalancing and the Feldenkrais Method, posture
is seen as dynamic and vital.The concept of posture refers
to the way in which we assume an antigravitational position
rather than to how that position appears. These ways correspond
to the result of learning and the history of one's life, including:
motor scheme, state of mind, emotional tensions, etc.Good
posture means minimum effort and maximum freedom of movement.Moreover,
posture reflects the character and habits of the person and
coincides with his way of acting and expressing his or herself.
We cannot consider working on posture without keeping in mind
the patient's entire world.In the erect position, balance
requires a continuous activity of adaptation and modification
of the physical-spacial relationships between bones, muscles,
tissues, and internal organs. Improvement of posture is therefore
closely tied to a complex equilibrium of nervous system, bone
and muscle system, bodily functions and environment.Postural
Rebalancing must stimulate and develop the natural ability
to improve that is inherent in man. Contrary to popular thought,
the method does not attempt to improve one's posture, but
to permit the body to spontaneously modify its inefficient
organization.This system uses the prerogative of human beings
to learn, and to learn to learn, through a natural, organic
procedure.

ENERGETIC
MOVEMENT
(individual or for groups)
The
energetic movement (Qi Gong) is an easy low impact exercise
that can be practiced at any age. It is an excellent way to
relieve stress, foster good health, and increase our physical
and mental capabilities.
Though not intended as a substitute for prescribed psychotherapy
or medical treatment, recent studies show that Chi Gung can
restore health to all body functions because of its action
on the nervous fibers. In the ancient Chinese tradition, "Chi"
(or Qi) means "internal energy, breath of life":
a unified force which has unlimited capacity for expression,
fundamental in all Perennial Tradition schools. Chi Gung (Qi
Gong) is the art that teaches us how to master this energy.
It integrates Chinese healing with Taoist meditation and gentle
movements.
Chi Gung is a remarkably enjoyable system of exercises that
greatly helps us to know our body and its forgotten capabilities.
It balances the whole of our being, increases our Chi and
teaches how to feel it and master it. It also greatly helps
to free us from tensions, therefore facilitating a better
harmony with nature.
