Anat Baniel / Feldenkrais Method Therapy

Last week, we took Ariana to three sessions of Anat Baniel Method therapy http://anatbanielmethod.com/. It was a very interesting and pleasant experience. The theory behind this therapy is to create new neural pathways through movement (basically rewiring the brain). We have seen subtle but notable improvements. For instance, since the therapy sessions, two of three of Ariana's state therapists have spontaneously mentioned how Ari's right hand seems very relaxed. Secondly, Ariana's "stepping" while supported has gotten better. Her steps are higher and strides are longer. Ariana also seemed really happy during and after the session -- giddy even. For now, we are not planning any further sessions unless dramatic results emerge, because we are focusing our efforts on raising funds for Stem Cell Therapy, but it was well worth the sessions we did.
