ZERO BALANCING has been called “the most revolutionary development in bodywork today.”
Zero Balancing (ZB) is a hands-on bodywork system designed to align the energy body and the physical structure. Zero Balancing focuses on the whole person, while addressing specific needs – profoundly relieving pain, tension, and discomfort. Considered at the leading edge of body/mind therapies, ZB moves beyond exclusively Western scientific approaches to body structure by also incorporating Eastern concepts of energy and healing. This enables practitioners to work simultaneously with the structural and energy bodies. Zero Balancing focuses on the musculo-skeletal system, with particular emphasis on key joints, ligaments, and soft tissues that support us in the gravitational field and facilitate energy transmission.
How Zero Balancing Helps
• Relieves muscle pain and chronic tension especially in the lower back, thorax, shoulders, arms, neck and head, hips and feet.
• Deepens clients’ relief from past trauma
• Stimulates psycho-spiritual development
• Re-aligns the physical body
• Deeply relieves current life stress
• Promotes mental clarity and inspiration
• Aligns structure and energy with respect to each other
