David Zemach-Bersin has developed a Functional Integration and Awareness Through Movement-based approach that has a high degree of success in addressing problems associated with acute head, neck, and spine injuries caused by concussions, whiplash, serious injuries, and falls. He has found that even in complex situations in which movement is extremely restricted, the Feldenkrais Method can help to bring about significant improvement. In this program, David shares what he has learned to help you develop perspective and confidence working in this important area. 

Knowing how to restore the freedom of the head and neck is vital to our work as Feldenkrais Practitioners as we frequently encounter people seeking relief from the lingering symptoms of traumatic head, neck, and spine injuries. During a Functional Integration lesson with a student, we may discover disorganization in their head, neck, and spine caused by a recent injury, or related to old injuries. Frequently, we find a combination of both old and new injuries, as well as deeply entrenched related habits. These situations are best addressed with a strategic, and layered approach. This practical, and skills-based on-demand program includes original ATM lessons and FI demonstrations, related anatomy, discussion, and a recorded Question & Answer session.

14.5+ hour program includes:
  • Eight original Awareness Through Movement lessons
  • Ten Functional Integration demonstrations
  • Ten supplemental articles
  • One Question & Answer session
  • Lifetime access to recordings
  • Option to download

"David is on an unwavering quest to get to the essence of the Feldenkrais Method. In his teaching, David empowers his students to listen to and learn from an emerging inner teacher."
