What Is Bodywork?


Bodywork, a common term that is used not only in body shops for car repairs, or a class of strenuous exercises in health clubs, but also as a generic term in Alternative, Complementary and Integrative Medicine, to describe a wide array of personal development and therapeutic approaches that have the potential to improve the health and well-being of enrolled participants.

Bodywork may involve practitioner active, or practitioner-guided Movement Methodologies (such as with Western techniques, whether designed by Moshe Feldenkrais-Feldenkrais Method, Joseph Heller-Hellerworks, Thomas Hanna-Somatics, F.M. Alexander-Alexander Technique, or Aaron Mattes-Active Isolated Stretching and Strengthening, aka AIS); Traditional Eastern body-mind-spirit integrated developmental methods (Yoga, Tai-Chi, Qi-kung or Kung-fu); Breath-work (Pranayama); Energy Work (Reiki, Therapeutic Touch); or Western Manual Therapies (Traditional Osteopathy-OMM, Chiropractics, Massage Therapy) where the client/ patient is in a position of passive receiver for the vast majority of the time, rather than an active participant.
(Note: This is a short list rather than an exhaustive one. Bodywork modalities add up to triple digit numbers.)

A wide range of approaches and numerous modalities are found in the Alternative Medicine field of Bodywork that are known to have benefits not only to the physical "body", such as in improving 'functionality', but also to the 'body-mind connection', aiming to enhance awareness and experience greater connection to self - and consciousness.

World-renowned Kinesiotherapist says:

Aaron Mattes, MS, LMT, RKT, founder of Active Isolated Stretching & Strengthening, Sarasota, FL:
"Mr. Daly is among a select group of advanced practitioners chosen by myself and Dr. Jeffrey Haqquist, DO, for their skills and experience to elevate AIS to become part of the bigger picture of musculoskeletal therapy in the medical community. As an advanced teacher and practitioner, his role in this effort is paramount. I have seen few people in my 40 years of experience as well qualified to carry out all phases of AIS."

Simsbury Manufacturing Executive says: 

Beverly N., suffering from painful adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder)
"After injuring my shoulder but prior to my first session with Dominique, I dealt with months of physical therapy and some acupuncture as well.  Although PT may work well for some people, I often felt more uncomfortable following treatment than I had beforehand.  Since beginning therapy with Dominique, there has been significant improvement in many areas including range of motion, arm strength and much less pain.  His gentle exercises have not been uncomfortable and yet have been very effective."
