Therapy Basics: Body Psychotherapy

Body-oriented procedures: building skills step by step
Central to any approach to body therapy is that physical perception, experience and expression are core elements of the interventions. Body-oriented approaches look at people as a unity of body and mind. This perspective provides an exciting alternative to methods based purely on speaking. By doing exercises involving movement, posture, physical contact, etc., experiences and insights can be deeply imprinted and remembered.
