Bodywork Practicum

Bodywork Practicum

July 9, 10, 11, 2004


As you know, The Phoenix Centre is deeply involved in the BodyMindSpirit connection. We are engaged in a process of exploration, designed to expand our repertoire of skills and understandings. Our focus is an amalgam of the best of Eastern and Western thinking.

Our process takes advantage of the understandings of the Human Potential Movement, Existentialist and Transpersonal Psychotherapies, and Bodywork of several stripes and flavours. We work with the traditional Eastern approaches of Acupressure / Acupuncture theory, Chakra theory and Jin Shin Acupressure, as well as the learnings of the Western Bodywork approaches. We also have been exploring the use of scent and sound as an adjunct to our Bodywork.

In the Practicum, you will learn and practise:

  • Finding and using the specific points we use for Bodywork releases.

  • How, where and how deep to press on release points.

  • How to focus your chi and to help your client to focus theirs.

  • Finding and using acupressure points for tonifying or sedating chi.

  • How to balance chi.

  • How to balance Chakra energy.

  • How to help the client move Chakra energy safely.

  • Dealing with emotional release, what to say and do.

  • The use of scent and sound.

  • Dealing with ethical issues.

And much, much more!

This program will be of interest to people who wish to assist others in their releasing and healing process. It will be of special interest to counsellors, Bodyworkers and those involved in the Human Potential movement’s view of holistic psychotherapy.
