Zero Balancing I with David Lauterstein

We are musculoskeletal beings, yet most therapists focus only on the muscular side of that equation. That

addresses only half of that system! Zero Balancing (ZB) – adding a mindful focus on the bones, key joints,

and the energy flowing through them, as well as on the soft tissues associated with them – gives you

access to the deepest layer of the person, who they are in their bones. Zero Balancing adds wholeness to

your work and your client’s experience and is the missing piece in the world of bodywork and bodymind

therapies.

You Will Learn:

• How to help relieve chronic tension and pain in the muscles, ligaments, joints, and

bones

• Techniques to alleviate stress-related disease and heal past trauma

• How to cultivate a dramatically heightened quality of touch

• New methods for assessing structural and energetic imbalances

• Asian therapy and thought alongside Western medicine and anatomy

• An osteopathic understanding of foundational joints in the body

• Detailed teaching regarding the precise anatomy of energy flows in the body
