Eileen Bach-y-Rita's Private Practice

After working with you for two weeks, I am feeling strong, healthy and wonderful. I discover lots of new things I can now do with my arm and hand that I never did before- for example I can now ring the bell of my bike with my left thumb- I never could do that before. When I noticed that I rode my bike in our little village ringing the bell all the time, that was great! So you see, I am fine and still curious. And of course I am doing the lessons of your movement program- mostly in the evening.
And besides all those changes in my body, it seems to me, that the right hemisphere of my mind is more active and gives me new, extraordinary ideas.
So, I will see what will happen.

The movements truly relieve the pain in my back and the techniques assist in almost instantly diminishing the pain that comes from prolonged sitting and standing.

Everything that my medical insurance covered was not any help to me. I had a chronic back pain until I found you. I feel you were a key to my healing.
M. Rosenbaum

I feel gifted. Your work gives me permission to be and allows me to heal and come together in wholeness. I feel freer because of the experience. Thanks so much.
G. Coriett

Thank you for showing me a way to myself without force and effort. Thank you for helping me learn so much. Thanks to a great teacher!
Christine

I am leaving with useful tools for my personal and professional life.
G. Such, D.C.

I come away with a new level of commitment to non-harming, and a renewed belief in the power of imagination and effortlessness.
Rosemary

I can't begin to know how to thank you for the impression you provided toward our neuroplastic understanding of the work. I certainly owe much thanks to your contribution to my developing a certain quality of touch also.
Tim Sobie

Thank you for your work. It is a great gift.
S. Nett

I am a 40 year-old woman and I am handicapped. I had brain-fever when I was a baby and just a few months old. So nearly during all my lifetime I am disabled. It is a spastic laming in the left part of my body. I cannot turn my arm and my left hand; in total I cannot do much with my left hand.
A friend of mine is a Feldenkrais-practitioner. He has got the cassettes of the workshop you held at the conference of the Feldenkrais Guild in 1993 Neuro-Pasticity and the Language of Feldenkrais.
So I heard of your ideas, of your work and your convictions. The first time in my life I can imagine to turn my left hand and that is really new for me, nearly incredible and very fascinating. It vanishes borders I accepted till now. My English is too poor to describe what it really means to me.
My friend supports me in change. He gave me the task to imagine myself turning my left hand every day. That is what I am doing and it does change things. Of course I have ATMs as I had before for nearly three years now.
I want to do more. In your workshop you were taking about two week terms, in which you are working with people who come to you to do ATMs and FIs. So my question is: Are you still doing this kind of work and can I come to you?
I will be happy getting your answer and I am thankful of having heard of your ideas. It makes life different.
C. Borchers

I found the Feldenkrais and the Focusing worked extremely well together. The freeing up in my body brought up emotional issues about how I restrict myself; the generosity that I offer myself in Feldenkrais brings up sadness about how seldom I have experienced that in my life.
Marcia

I learned a lot about my body and the possibility for further growth. A clicking hip stopped clicking.The time spent with you during our 10-day intensive was profoundly valuable to me in making major strides in the recovery from a low back injury, sustained 2 1/2 years earlier. During those 2 1/2 years before I saw you, I had several FI lessons and did ATM on my own fairly consistently and did experience a slow, gradual healing. Since the time with you, however, the healing and my functional ability has dramatically and consistently improved. I attribute this to 2 primary factors:
1). The subtlety and gentleness of your approach with me greatly enhanced my awareness and
2). The intensive work over a 10-day period allowed me to integrate the enhanced awareness much more than isolated lessons had before.
Thank you.
Nancy

I believe you are doing a very important service! Thank you.
