What is Rosen Method... ?
Following the breath, moment to moment,
the Rosen Method guides us back to the depth of our hearts.
Approaching with gentleness, the fears, where the
muscles have contracted or numbed, the hands
and the presence of the practitioner create a space
of acceptance.
Within this space the tensions can be released,
the emotions witheld embraced, and the whole being
surrender to what is.
From the acceptance, surrender and peace which unfold,
one regain access to spontaneity, freedom and power.
The Physical, Mental and Emotional benefits are
immense, sometimes astonishing:
once again the perfect reflection of the intimate
connection of our Body ~Mind ~Spirit.
As the client lays on the massage table, the practitioner contacts the body with the respectful and unique Rosen touch.
She finds the source of the muscle tensions and gently
establishes a deep, trustful rapport with the client's
body and mind.
Often, as the contracted group muscle is being met
with matching intensity, the tension will start
releasing its hold, allowing the breath to flow back
to the places which felt hard and still before.
With movement and life coming through the muscles
again, the emotions and feelings which caused the
contraction can make their way back to awareness.
The practitioner can then follow and support the
client's unfolding discovery, using language
and words as pebbles on the path to self-understanding, truth, profound relaxation and healing.
