“[A] favorite body scanning bible.”
“[A] favorite body scanning bible.”
Product Description
In the revolutionary Somatics, Thomas Hanna demonstrates that so many problems we accept as inevitable over time-chronic stiffness, bad back, chronic pain, fatigue, and even high blood pressure -need never occur if we maintain conscious control of nerve and muscle, a state which Hanna calls sensory-motor awareness. This gentle, lifelong program can help almost anyone maintain the pleasures of a supple, healthy body indefinitely, with only a five-minute routine once a day.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Bottom line: get this book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Somatics: Reawakening The Mind's Control Of Movement, Flexibility, And Health (Paperback)
If you have any structural pain that just won't go away, if you want to better your bodily awareness, and especialy if you are a healthcare professional. It is worth more than its weight in gold. I am a massage therapist, my works effectiveness increased a hundred fold when I learned what this book offers, and my selfcare routine did too.

Finally, someone that speaks my language! Thomas Hannah describes my belief system so eloquently. My massage therapist recommended this book to me. He suspected that I would appreciate this book based on my observations & actions for myself and others (I'm a Kinesiologist). I am looking forward to applying his exercises.

release muscle tension and eliminate pain,
By A Customer
This review is from: Somatics: Reawakening The Mind's Control Of Movement, Flexibility, And Health (Paperback)
In this book Hanna provides a clear explanation of why the brain becomes conditioned to maintain unnecessary muscle tension, why that creates pain and limits movement, and most importantly, how to re-educate the brain to release that unnecessary tension, restore free movement, and eliminate pain. The exercises depicted in this book have given me my life back, freeing me from back pain I had for 15 years following a car accident. I highly recommend the book, and also recommend finding a Somatics practitioner to work with directly.
