Benefits of Receiving Regular Bodywork
Looking for a good investment? One with high returns?
Consider investing in your body by receiving regular bodywork sessions, and reap the cumulative benefits such as eased anxiety and depression, strengthened immunity, enhanced sleep, and reduced fatigue, to name just a few.
Whether you consider it to be pampering, rejuvenating or therapeutic or whether you choose it for a luxurious treat, stress relief or pain management, bodywork can be a powerful ally in your healthcare regimen.
An estimated 90% of disease is related to stress. Bodywork can help you manage stress, relieve physical tensions and provide a way to achieve emotional balance.
Getting a bodywork session can do a world of good, and getting one on a regular basis can do even more! You will benefit from the cumulative effects and get an amazing return on the investment in your health and well-being.
Consider bodywork sessions as an integral part of your health and wellness plan. I would be happy to discuss with you what schedule will best meet your needs and work with your schedule. Just call me at 510.828.3441 or email me at rosie@thegiftoftouch.org.

Furthermore,
I would like to introduce my pilates instructor, Jennifer Durning,
who I worked with for several months. Jennifer first practiced
Pilates during a successful effort to rehabilitate a lower back injury. This
experience led her to undertake an intensive course of study at the Ellie
Herman Studios of San Francisco and further study at The Pilates Center in
Boulder. She went on to take courses in rehabilitation techniques,The Franklin
Method, Anusara Yoga, Hanna Somatics, and The Alexander Technique. She is
deeply committed to continuing education so that she can remain open-minded
towards the many different modalities which can foster well being.
Jennifer believes that each lesson is an opportunity to not only increase
strength, flexibility, and ease of movement but a chance to
cultivate one's own awareness, focus, and presence.
Jennifer has taught Pilates privately and in mat classes since October
2003. For more information about Pilates, Pilates lessons, and Pilates
classes, please contact Jennifer: jedurnican@gmail.com.
Her studio is conveniently located on Telegraph Ave in Berkeley.
