Our hands are involved in almost everything we do. Pain or tension in our hands can make even simple actions challenging. And, because our hands are so closely linked to our nervous system, they can both reflect -and affect- our emotional state.
In this program with David Zemach-Bersin, you will learn two first-aid Feldenkrais lessons that you can use to improve the comfort and flexibility of your hands. The lessons will be relaxing, protective, and emotionally soothing.
“The Feldenkrais Method® is all about learning. That said, it’s harder to access our capacity for improvement if we are experiencing physical pain and discomfort. Physical discomfort makes ‘noise’ for our nervous system, creates tension and reduces our ability to create new neural pathways. Sometimes, we just want to get out of pain, and find relief. That’s what these lessons are for.”
-David Zemach-Bersin
David brings over forty years of clinical experience to his online approach. His lessons are highly accessible, effective, and remarkably suited to home use. David believes that every person’s nervous system is available for learning and improvement. And he is confident that the Feldenkrais Method can help!
"I love hand-focused Feldenkrais lessons! I have mild arthritis on my fingers and they really help.”
