I became a Feldenkrais practitioner after recovering from chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, conditions that plagued me for ten years. Within six months of regular Feldenkrais practice, I was symptom-free. While it wasn’t the only method I used, it was the final piece of the puzzle.

​

Feldenkrais offers diverse benefits and is popular among athletes and performers. My focus, however, is on helping people overcome pain—just as it helped me. Initially, I didn’t understand the method’s slow, small movements, but I persisted due to the welcoming community. Before Feldenkrais, I couldn’t drive for long without intense pain; afterward, I could make long trips uninterrupted. Weekly group classes and individual lessons transformed my health. Though rare, brief flare-ups occur if I get extremely cold or tired, but they never last more than a couple of days.

​

With over 20 years in mental health, specializing in abuse survivor support, I hold an MA in Counselling and have worked as a trainer, supervisor, and counsellor. Overworking led to my chronic conditions, but Feldenkrais has been instrumental in my healing. While primarily addressing physical issues, I’ve seen its power to release trauma. I also integrate other tools when appropriate, recognizing that no single method is a cure-all.
