Using a series of gentle hand or verbal instructions, patients are made more aware of their movement patterns, allowing everyday movements to be performed with less effort and pain. Feldenkrais aims to reduce pain or limitations in movement, improve physical function and promote general wellbeing. The Feldenkrais method particularly assists participants to inhibit muscle tension or spasm and control pain, enjoy greater ease of movement, an increased sense of vitality and to experience relaxation leaving one feeling more centred and balanced.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-961b2aa elementor-cta--skin-classic elementor-animated-content elementor-bg-transform elementor-bg-transform-zoom-in elementor-widget elementor-widget-call-to-action\" data-id=\"961b2aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"call-to-action.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-cta\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-cta__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-cta__title elementor-cta__content-item elementor-content-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLomi Lomi\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-cta__description elementor-cta__content-item elementor-content-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLomi Lomi is an ancient form of Hawaiian soft hands massage given in fluid, rhythmic motions that combines the forearms and palms to sooth tensions.
