The Thompson Method of Bodywork (häftad, eng)

An illustrated manual for using physical movement and alignment to resolve chronic pain and tension and work with the emotions

• Includes 62 exercises to work with emotions through the body and support the neck, shoulders, lower back, feet, and overall posture as well as breathing and voice

• Draws on Zen shiatsu, Rolfing, yoga, and Gestalt psychotherapy to explain how transformation of physical structure corrects imbalances in the unconscious mind

• " Cathy Thompson had the rarest combination of experience, knowledge, and pure instinct.

I only had to walk in the door for her to understand where I was at physically, and emotionally. And the results were as unorthodox and surprising as her methods. She was one of a kind." - Hugh Jackman, actor and producer.

• "Cathy's extraordinary gift began in her brain, traveled to her heart and continued through the tips of her fingers." - Kathie Lee Gifford, TV personality and author.

In this practical manual, Thompson and her protégé-daughter Tara Thompson Lewis provide a deep understanding of body mechanics and how to work with emotions through the body.

They explore how to listen to the body’s signals to discover our physical and emotional blindspots--the weaknesses and misalignments at the root of our discomfort--and explain how transformation of your physical structure can correct imbalances in the unconscious mind caused by repressed memories and emotional traumas.

Offering illustrated instructions for 62 corrective alignment exercises, the authors show how to work with the deep postural muscles, and support the neck, shoulders, lower back, and feet to improve singing, dancing, yoga, and posture while sitting at the computer. 

By recognizing and releasing the deeper emotional triggers beneath our physical complaints, the Thompson Method allows you to resolve chronic pains, increase body awareness and free movement, and create the foundation for good health and well-being.
