In the Feldenkrais Method we have espoused the ability to improve quality of life for virtually any situation for over 50 years . Real growth is possible in the majority of situations.  It is gratifying to see research starting to bear out what we have seen working with clients the medical system had typically given up on in areas such as stroke, CP, spinal cord injuries, etc.

 

 

Hopefully, research such as this will bring about renewed interest in helping people with neurological trauma through all the years of their potential.  And by the way, if you are in the traditional system and you find working with patients that year post event to be difficult, a somatic approach will change that that difficulty to fun and engaging while yielding great results. You can move away from "do 10 of this and 20  and tell me when you are done" to unlocking the true potential of neuroplasticity through the purposeful engagement of the organic learning loop. 

 

What is that loop?  See the next post....
