today body-oriented psychotherapy won a very wide popularity among psychotherapists and psychologists, as knowledge body language can give more accurate information about a person than words.
Initially, psychology body emerged in the mainstream of psychoanalysis, in the 30-ies of the last century – its founder Wilhelm Reich was one of the disciples of CFreud. He noticed that patients sitting in a chair, certain emotions accompany certain bodily manifestations. br>
for Example: if a patient wants to restrain one's feelings, he can begin to touch his neck or mouth, as if his throat constricting or closing the mouth, not allowing the emotions to manifest. These observations of bodily reactions in the moment expression of emotion, has allowed psychologists to understand the connection between physical and mental, which marked the beginning of body-oriented psychotherapy.
Today, body-oriented therapy far removed from psychoanalysis and is also a separate branch of psychology with their theoretical and practical experience.
the Feature of bodily-oriented psychotherapy in a holistic approach to the person. The personality as a whole. Personality = Mind + Emotions + Body.
the Body can "tell" the psychologist about his problems and character much faster than he does himself. The body remembers everything: it impressed all of our feelings, experiences, important events, negative life experience, and since the appearance of the body when consciousness and conscious memory still is not the question... Thus, through the body, you can work with emotions, relationships, self-acceptance, etc.
the Advantage of body-oriented psychotherapy in that it allows, gracefully avoiding the resistance of the client, very carefully to approach his inner experiences. And most importantly, psychology body is the shortest road to the unconscious, and hence the root of the problems. However, body work is not only aimed at the solution of psychological problems and correction of mental disorders, but also on the General health of the body.
body-oriented therapy is not subject to the censorship of consciousness of the patient, therefore acting faster and more effectively "verbal" techniques. That is why this is a priority in our GROWTH-therapy and neuropsychological correction.
We work with the psyche of the client (adult and child) through his body, as the contact (point, holistic, vibration massage, special equipment, sensory and cerebellar stimulation, etc.), and contactless (psychokinesis, therapy awareness).
body-oriented psychotherapy is very effective in individual and family psychotherapy with children and adults with:
* psychosomatic disorders;
* work with the personal injury, crisis States;
* life challenges;
* stress disorders, depression;
* social rehabilitation;br>
* improving the efficiency of self-realization and communication;

Thus, body-oriented psychotherapy is a very effective method of psychological help. But it is a mistake to assume that there is only one method of psychotherapy that can solve all customer problems, no matter how effective it was. The most productive, with tangible results, we believe that a comprehensive integrative approach to working with clients. Therefore, conducting a course of psychotherapy for a particular client's problem, we use an integrative approach, connecting with the bodily-oriented practices and other areas: art therapy, sand therapy, systemic family therapy. Such a holistic approach works best. He we present a resource conscious systemic therapy GROWTH.
