Dear Avi, I am back in the States and already I am incorporating what I learned from you in my approach to dance.  I wanted to thank you once more for the way you treated my problems that stem from years of dancing.  The brilliance of your approach and the therapeutic value of your work will allow me to face with confidence the physical stress that occurs unavoidably in my field.  My deepest gratitude for everything and all the best, Dafna Baier

I feel lucky to have found Avi and would recommend him highly

04/06/2018 - 00

“Avi was such a help while I was on vacation and having some real pain. I was very lucky as he picked up the phone, gave me an appointment the next day, squeezed me in the next week and I was able to function relatively well on my vacation after I had seen him only twice. Avi did a great job of figuring out the patterns and dynamics in my body and his manual manipulation felt good and made sense to me physically, mentally and emotionally.  I felt that I was literally in good hands and I was confident in his knowledge and technique.

Testimonial from a Body Psychotherapist

07/06/2016 - 00

As a body – oriented therapist I am aware of the amount of information stored in our bodies, which we used as an armor to protect ourselves over the years. I received the 10 Structural Integration sessions from Avi. I felt this could help me get more space in my body. Less pain and it would make me longer! Avi taught me how I can use the support from the environment such as the floor or a chair. These practical exercises are tools for life. Contact Avi I highly recommend!

A top orthopedist had pronounced that recovery was impossible

10/10/2014 - 00
 
When I first came to Avi a year and a half ago I was in very poor shape. My posture had collapsed to the left, apparently due to a worsening in my scoliosis. Walking was difficult, sitting was difficult -- getting through the day was difficult. I was reduced to short periods of gentle movement interrupted by long periods of rest. A top orthopedist had pronounced that recovery was impossible -- that the only solution would be long spinal fusion of some 17 vertebrae.

Scoliosis – What to do - 2

Opening a [New] Future 

Using the "Rolfing” technique in children and young adults suffering from scoliosis, can not only retard its progression, but can even reverse it by straightening the degree curvature significantly. 
The extent to which an integrated therapy of opening fascial adhesions and movement exercises can relieve the pain of individuals with mild scoliosis can be learnt from the case of Naama (pseudo name). 
A few months ago Naama (a young woman aged 29) arrived at my clinic for treatment.
