BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
If you’ve visited Body & Balance before, you’ve likely experienced Dynamic Body Balancing.
But what is it, really?
Dynamic Body Balancing (DBB) is a craniosacral myofascial unwinding technique originally developed by Dr. Carol Phillips. The practitioners at Body & Balance are trained extensively in DBB and use it with nearly every patient. DBB is three parts:
Craniosacral
Myofascial unwinding
Dynamic
Your Craniosacral System
We all have three primary metrics of health: your heartrate, respiration (breathing) rate, and cranial rhythmic impulse.
The latter is what pumps fluid in and around your nervous system, bringing nutrients in and flushing toxins out of your brain. In DBB, practitioners clear any restrictions in your craniosacral system and help you find balance.
Myofascial Unwinding
Fascia is the spiderweb-like connective tissue that encases all of your muscles, ligaments, nerves, bones, and organs. When something gets “stuck” in your fascia, it can create all kinds of discomfort.
In practice, myofascial unwinding as part of Dynamic Body Balancing can look like rocking or shaking. While you are moving around, your practitioner is tapping into the receptors that talk to you brain and activating them so your brain can show the body what needs attention and the body will respond with unwinding.
Dynamic
The “Dynamic” part of DBB means you’re sitting up or standing in gravity, rather than lying down for the entire session. This allows your body to more easily find “stuck” points and torsions.
Torsions can come from many sources, including old injuries, traumas, repetitive motions, and inutero. We often see torsions from car accidents, falls, and student athletes. Athletes who play golf, tennis, lacrosse, soccer, baseball, plus dancers and snowboarders all have built-in torsions from their sport. Bodies can become unbalanced from a single torsion event (e.g. car accident) or a lifetime of layered torsions.
Is DBB right for me?
If you’ve tried other modalities of healing and they’re not lasting, or something’s missing, Dynamic Body Balancing is a great option. While everyone can benefit from DBB, we most frequently treat the following groups:
Infants
Toddlers
Pregnant mamas
Chronic pain
