The Feldenkrais Method was started by a Russian-born Israeli physicist named Moshe Feldenkrais, who
expressed that humans use only a limited amount of their bodies' ability to move. He used his education in science and
the martial arts to develop a way to get the most therapeutic benefits from certain stretches, reaches, and changes in
posture using specific patterns. At times, the Feldenkrais Method also uses massage. Basically, it provides supportive
therapy or physical rehabilitation for individuals who have sustained an injury. The Feldenkrais Method can be used to
improve quality of life and reduce anxiety for someone suffering from a chronic condition such as cancer. This method
is quite new and has not been fully researched by scientists, yet. However, I am sure we will be hearing more in the
way of the benefits of using this exciting new method.
