Bodywork and Movement Inter-relationship

Andy Oriel, a friend, colleague, and student, says that while Bodywork is enjoyable and helpful, for people to really heal, they must be taught to move. I couldn't agree more. Sometimes when we move we re-aggravate chronic conditions, and a helpful touch can shift a pattern, but to continue on that healing path, we need to explore our movement patterns and find more efficiency, more resilience, more pleasure in our movement. Teachers are valuable, particularly teachers that invite us to experience our movement with more awareness.
