Imagine a clothed massage that gets right to the root of the problem without being painful or invasive. A Zero Balancing therapist uses held stretches and pressure to the bone at key areas. The pressure is such that it feels good or ‘hurts good’.
People come for Zero Balancing for a wide range of complaints. For example, frozen shoulder is frequently linked to grief or shock which can lock the ribs of the upper body. Someone who has suffered whiplash months or even years before may feel lively and be told that their body is healed but still suffer pain. This is because shock or stress has caused a dissociation of energy and structure.
Practitioners are trained to maintain a clear boundary between themselves and the client so the touch used is experienced as non-invasive and safe. In a world where we are constantly being pressured to do things it is wonderful to receive touch that demands nothing while offering the opportunity of letting go and deeply relaxing.
ZB was developed in the 70’s by Dr Fritz Smith, combining the structural knowledge of Osteopathy with the energy theory of Acupuncture.
