Movement Innovations specializes in the Aston-Patterning
system.
Aston - Patterning® is a
comprehensive system of bodywork and movement coaching. The
bodywork consists of three forms of hands on intervention:
- Aston Massage integrates layers
of tension from surface to bone with the systematic use of
three dimensional touch.
- Myokinetics releases the stress
patterns that are more deeply embedded in the facial planes
- Arthrokinetics addresses soft
tissue restrictions around and through the joints and
along the bone.
Bodywork creates options for the client to move with
greater ease. A session may include one or all three forms listed
above.
Neurokinetics: the movement
re-education portion of the session that:
- Encourages new movement
patterns that were accessed through bodywork
- Optimizes existing movement
patterns
- Increases awareness of body
movement and alignment
Ergonomics: the goal is to get the
environment to assist you rather than cause more problems in your
body, whether you sit at a computer, or carry heavy boxes, to
throwing a baseball.
To further enhance reclaiming your best alignment, wedges and
supports exclusively designed by Judith Aston, are another option.
They're used in the office, home, for your auto, really any where
you're going.
Although Movement Innovations and Aston-Patterning® can
facilitate a great deal of change in one session, it tends to work
best in groups of threes. A major series usually ranges from
twelve to fifteen sessions.
