BSR is a gentle non-invasive, osetopathically-based form of body therapy which is highly effective in working with chronic stress, injuries and pains or problems associated with postural and structural imbalances.
How does BSR work?
BSR stimulates the body's self-correcting and self-balancing reflexes by way of the proprioceptive reflexes located in our muscles. The practitioner uses movement and gentle compression to find positions of comfort which allow the body to change the stress and pain patterns which are causing discomfort.
The practioner uses gentle movements and positions of the body to facilitate the change of stress and pain patterns. A strong focus is placed on the comfort of the individual, no forceful manipulations are used. The practitioner also suggests home exercises that individulas can do to further facilitate the neuromuscular re-education process begun in the session.
BSR is very effective in helping alleviate both acute and chronic pain and stress patterns by reducing chronic muscle tension, soothing the joints, increasing flexibility, improving circulation, and relaxing the entire body.
