| Rosen Method Bodywork |
 |
| |
Rosen Method bodywork, deeply relaxing, is distinguished by its gentle, direct touch. Using hands that listen rather than manipulate, the work takes place on a massage table in a quiet supportive environment. The practitioner focuses on chronic muscle tension and the client´s natural breathing pattern.
The Rosen practitioner has been trained to notice subtle changes in muscle tension and shifts in the breath, recognizing these as indications that the client is becoming more aware of his/her body and internal experience. The practitioner, non-judgmental and supportive, responds with touch and words.
As this process unfolds, habitual tension and old patterns may be released, freeing the client to experience more aliveness, new choices in life, and a greater sense of well-being.
The results of Rosen Method Bodywork frequently include a lessening of pain and tension and an increase in vitality and aliveness. Many individuals experience a new sense of clarity about their life direction and goals. They are better able to make decisions which improve the quality of their life.
Rosen practitioners, as part of their training, work through much of their own issues. They are not trained as therapists, nor do they engage in therapy with their clients. They are trained to be proficient observers and listeners: listening to the body and what it says and to the words spoken.

- Relaxes muscle tension and chronic holding

Rosen Method Movement
Designed by Marion Rosen, P.T., this movement is taught in a very low impact exercise class that is light-hearted, attentive and restorative. Rosen movements are simple yet enable greater body awareness and increased flexibility and help prevent physical difficulties before they arise. A class consists of movements based on physical therapy with full range of motion exercises, set to music. The music for the exercises is carefully chosen to enhance the essence of the movements and create a connection to one´s spirit for a fuller body/mind/spirit experience. Classes help people stay healthy as they age and to cope effectively with the challenges and stresses of life. Along with the specific and uplifting music, classes are designed in a fun, energizing and easy fashion.
Marion Rosen, Founder
Rosen Method bodywork and movement was developed out of Marion Rosen´s 50 years experience as a physical therapist and health educator. Her unique approach to bodywork and movement has earned her recognition as a leader and originator in the field of body-oriented therapies.
In the 1930´s, Marion studied breath and relaxation in Munich, Germany, with Lucy Heyer, who had been trained by Elsa Gindler, a renowned innovator of body therapies. Licensed in physical therapy, both in Stockholm and at the Mayo Clinic, Marion developed the Rosen Method over the course of many years in private practice.
Marion´s purpose is to realize a vision of health and well-being by making the benefits of the Rosen Method widely available to the general public.

As Marion Rosen, founder, says, "We touch people. It is a touch that makes contact with the body with a soft, full hand, and somehow goes deep, to help a person know their authentic selves in a profound way."

14. Rosen Method Bodywork: A Listening Touch
This modality of bodywork is a unique blend of listening: listening in on the rhythms of the body; listening for insights and connections that emerge from the unconscious; listening with hands, ears, and hearts.

15. My name is Helen Morgan. As a Rosen Method practitioner, I use gentle, “listening” touch to reach deeply into the origins of tension in the body—meeting tension in a way that allows people to connect with themselves and become aware of unconscious beliefs and ways of being.
As the process unfolds, habitual tension and old patterns can be released, freeing the client to experience more aliveness, new choices in life, and a greater sense of wellbeing.
The results of Rosen Method Bodywork frequently include a lessening of pain and tension and an increase in vitality and aliveness. Many people experience a new sense of clarity about their life directions and goals.
