Devised by the Israeli scientist Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais, the Feldenkrais system is a way of handling the body by communicating specific sensations to the central nervous system in order to improve the functions of the motor-system. The method is unique in that it evokes changes in the human brain at a level previously thought unachievable. Muscular tonicity - even spasticity - is actually modified, the range of movement is enhanced, movement becomes more coordinated, and the overall efficiency and comfort of muscular functioning is increased. 256 pp.
