Body and movement awareness is the key to unblocking restrictions in movement and manual therapy. This book offers innovative techniques to help clients become aware of their own restrictions, and to move through them effectively for more whole body and mind wellbeing.

Noah Karrasch's CORE(R) model focuses on body, breath, and movement awareness in order to determine where restrictions in the body may occur. Based on a lifetime of fine-tuning CORE(R) theory and practice, this book explains how and why this model works and helps movement therapists get better results by being more in tune with both their clients and themselves. Photographs demonstrate how to help clients work from a free and resilient CORE(R) and how to isolate, stretch and release restrictions to achieve greater energy levels and pain reduction. With the mantra that in order to treat the physical, we must also examine our emotional, mental and energetic states, this book shows how to better involve clients in their own healing process through movement work.
