Spinal 'pumping', breathing, & craniosacral exploration
Spine & scapulae: 'Global' patterns
•
5m 15s
THE WHAT:
As simple & highly accessible, stand-alone context for mobilising both the local (cervicothoracic & lumbar) as well as global spine. The addition of craniosacral exploration also brings a further context of sensitivity & manipulation to be explored/practiced. As it incorporates active stretching in extension & flexion throughout the spinal 'levels', it makes for a particularly beneficial tool for those with limited neuromuscular-efficiency/”neural drive” in the spine from lifestyle/practice habits, or for those who are simply unfamiliar with the concept of 'spinal work' and do not have any specific patterns to work with. It is, therefore, suitable for both the beginner as well as the intermediate & advanced practitioner as a general spinal-mobilization context.

The 'Growing side-bend'
THE WHAT
The 'Growing side-bend' or "breathe & grow" is a specific breathing form which expresses the length of the body's lateral-lines. Effectively a LOADED stretch utilising the weight of the head and overhead arm, it affects not only the spine in the frontal-plane but also the rib-cage, hips,... -
