A. Body Stress Release
Body Stress Release (BSR) is a safe gentle bodywork technique that helps your body reengage its natural healing ability, by using a precise pattern of ‘releases’ where tension has become stuck and pain has set in. The technique recognises that the body reacts to stress in a highly organised way along lines of tension. 

Releases are firm but gentle using thumb or fingers along these lines. After BSR you’ll feel like you’ve had a massage. Good for back, neck, shoulder pain, chronic tension and stress-related issues.

B. Embodied Talking
I gained a certificate in humanistic counselling from the Gestalt Centre in London because it became clear to me when treating people in pain that a holistic approach is the only approach. 

The Good Body Space is a safe space where you can have the option to share beyond the physical symptoms. Particularly important if you are suffering from ongoing or unexplained pain or tension as a result of trauma. The combination of embodied talking and BSR can be very powerful.

C. Somatic & Posture Training
The thing about pain from repeated poor movements or posture over time, is that if we don’t change how we do what we do every day, we recreate the same issues. 

Clinical Somatics Exercises use mindful ‘pandiculation’ (tensing then releasing rather than stretching) to reorganise the way your body moves and to re-sensitise your brain’s proprioception. Sounds a bit complicated but Somatics exercises are, in my mind, the most effective way to make deep and long-lasting changes to our movement habits.
