BODYWORK (Compliments of Larry and Elvire van Leeuwen-Smith)

  • Polarity Therapy
  • integrates four basic healing concepts: gentle hands-on manipulation, yoga, dietary counseling and a positive lifestyle and attitude.

  • Postural Integration uses manipulation, bioenergenics, acupressure, breath work, neo-Reikian techniques.


  • Rebalancing combines sensitive deep tissue massage, joint release, energy balancing and counseling to relieve physical pain and tension, facilitate emotional healing and enhance relaxation.


  • Rebirthing is based on the beliefs that adult conflicts begin with the shock of the birth experience and early childhood trauma. Reliving those moments allows a patient to deal properly with those negatives.

  • Reiki, based on the principles of Chi, is used for mental, emotional, physical or spiritual balancing and is done by practioners placing hands on specific positions on the body transmitting energy by a light touch.


  • The Rosen Method combines touch and verbal communication to free harmful muscular tension and repressed memories and emotions.

  • The Rubenfeld Synergy Method is a blend of bodywork and psychotherapy and has been around since the early 1970s. This technique combines gentle touch and subtle movement adjustments to the body while a verbal discourse is continuing.


  • For an excellent Reiki web site in the UK, we suggest you go to Reiki.
