This
name conceals a unique and very effective form of massage that
offers a solution to a variety of bodily and psyhic problems. It
is a form of massage that blends the best from different
alternative systems with a very precise tecnique of manipulation
and a good portion of common sense. The purpose is partly to
loosen the tensions in the muscles and particularly around the
joints, thereby allowing your system to work optimally, and
partly to become attentive to the mechanisms that causes these
tensions to continually arise. By getting closer to the mechanism
one begins to gather the nessesary material for first to be able
to see oneself as one is and next to be able to replace it with
something different.
The
treatment begins with a general loosening of the body for me to
be able create a picture of the connections between the tensions
and the imbalances. Next the respiration is opened which is our
most important tool for being able to let go of tensions and
create space for ourselves in body and psyche. The body is
loosened from head to foot with special focus on the needing
areas and at the end the pressure is released in the neck and
spinal column. Throughout the treatment there is a big emphasis
on the sensations and resistances that is experinced.
This
form of treatment, that is developed in Denmark during the past
50 years by the Hartung-family, has proved to be one of the most
beneficient to deal with most of the problems that are bound to
arise due to the way we organize our working- and private lives.
From little problems like tennis-elbows and frozen shoulders to
big heavy cases of disease. The speed everything has makes it
impossible for us to keep up and the more and more specialized
functions we perform locks the body (and psyche) into very
particular patterns that are very difficult to break. This limits
our possibilities very much and our need to experience ourselves
in a different way grows. The satisfaction it gives to open to
the needs of the body (and psyche) facilitates that we can use
our energy far more efficient and focussed.
-but like in all other
crafts the important part is not the system or the structure but
the person that has to perform the task, so a little bit about
myself:
My
name is Søren Christensen, 38 years, married and the father of
two lovely kids. I´m a trained actor with a proffesional carrer
of 20 years behind me. Through my work with theater my interest
in the functions of the body and the psyche has been aroused in
me and I therefore took a degree in this method of working. I try
to divide my time between the theater and treatment and I try
very much to make use of my experiences from both fields which I
find supplement each other very well. I believe I have a
different approch to working with people than most in the
alternative world. I tend to look at life from that "bent"
angle, nessesary for an actor to have, and to bring that into my
treatments. The most important for me is not to give answers but
to make space for the right questions and by that expand the
number of possibilities.
