  • Psychotherapeutic Postural Integration (IPP)
    Member of the Fédération Française de Psychothérapie et Psychanalyse (FF2P) Institute Accredited by the European Association of Psychotherapy Psychotherapeutic Postural Integration (IPP) By Eliane and Claude Vaux Société Civile IFCC – SIRET 405 186 875 00036 – 102 Route du Polygone – 67100 Strasbourg Tel: 0033 (0)3 88 60 44 84 – Email: [email protected] – Site: www.ifcc-psychotherapie.fr 1 2 Short history The IFCC was founded in 1996 with enthusiasm and joy. Eliane Jung-Fliegans, clinical psychologist, and Claude Vaux, body psychotherapist, combined their expertise and their passion for this work since 1982 and decided to create a psychotherapy training course mainly focused on Gestalt Therapy and Postural Integration. At the time, Claude Vaux was working in Paris at the Triangle association, with Michel Sokoloff and Dominique Vayner. Triangle opens the field to new therapies from the USA and from India by organizing seminars and training courses. In this way, they bring to France a range of therapists known in Esalen, cradle of humanist psychology, such as Léonard Orr, creator of Rebirth, Paul Rebillot, founder of Experiential Gestalt, Alexander Lowen, founder of Bioenergetic Analysis, Gerda Boyesen, creator of Biodynamics, Harvey Jackins, founder of Co-Counseling, Jack Painter, creator of Postural Integration… Eliane, after obtaining a master’s degree in psychology, created the Cabinet of Humanist Psychology in Strasbourg, where she practices Gestalt Therapy and Creative Visualization. Little by little, the method they teach became more and more distinctive and eventually unified under the name of Psychotherapeutic Postural Integration. Claude and Eliane collaborate with Jack Painter and Paul Rebillot, but above all integrate into their training the Regenerative Movement taught by Itsuo Tsuda, whom Claude met in 1978.

  • Dare I Touch? Exploring the Potentials of Using Touch in Neuro-Linguistic-Psychotherapy Asaf Rolef Ben-Shahar
    Dare I touch? Exploring the Potentials of using touch in Neuro-Linguistic-Psychotherapy Asaf Rolef Ben-Shahar Touch remains the most trusted connection between people. I will believe your touch before I believe your words. Virginia Satir (1988) I breathe. I come to my centre. What does it mean to come to my centre, for me? It means being at home with me; it means being ok with the thoughts, sensations, emotions, being ok with me. Moreover, it means making a statement to the world about being me: it’s ok. Strangely, it is when I’m mostly in my centre, that I’m also mostly connected to others. This is nothing new, I haven’t invented any novelty; different people in different cultures have talked about these moments. I breathe. I come to my centre and connect with you through my centre. We watch each other, we sense each other’s presence; we touch. What could be more wonderful than this celebration of life? What could be scarier than this celebration of life? And in those moments it doesn’t matter that I am a therapist and you are a client (or vice-versa). In those moments we are. And when I am, then all is ok, and when you are all is ok. And techniques? And changework? And achieving the client’s outcome? Well, techniques is what we do when being isn’t that easy, isn’t it? Some people are afraid of trance; they are fearful because trance opens the door to powerful change, it opens doors to genuine and authentic magic.

  • Defining-Reflex.Pdf
    REPORT: DEFINITIONS OF REFLEXOLOGY Prepared by Christine Issel with assistance from Bill Flocco Originally prepared for the America Reflexology Certification Board & Reflexology Association of America May 2003 updated November 2013 1 INTRODUCTION In order to have a unified profession we must seek to establish a unified definition to which most reflexologists can subscribe. In trying to create this universal definition several issues need to be kept in mind. 1. As we move forward in legislative endeavors at any level, it is important to have a similar definition in use and seen in printed literature by the different agencies representing reflexology. There is a national movement to assign billing codes to complementary therapies so that their practitioners can bill through insurance companies. However, in order to do that the practitioner must be licensed by the state*. So we will see more, not less legislation in the years ahead. (*Unlicensed professionals will be able to bill through a licensed practitioner to receive payment.) 2. A definition by the Reflexology Association of America (RAA) must be inclusive, to allow as many reflexologists as possible to subscribe to and thus become members of the association, without being too general as to be meaningless. Whereas a definition by the American Reflexology Certification Board (ARCB) needs to include what it tests. 3. With the best of intent, many reflexologists sometimes want to put as much as possible into a definition. Many people confuse a definition (which defines the word, or what is meant by the word Reflexology) with a scope of practice (what part of the body we work on), the theory (how it is believed to work), the application of techniques (the techniques used and how applied), its history or origin, it’s results or benefits (how it is going to help people).

  • 3.Draft Agreement for PI Students
    DRAFT AGREEMENT FOR PI STUDENTS If you are accepted into our training, you will be entering an intensive program, which can, with your commitment and discipline, start you on the way to becoming a professional bodyworker. 1) Preparations for the Training: In preparation for the present training, each trainee will need to focus on those of the following areas where he or she is weakest: STRENGTH AND SENSITIVITY. Deep connective tissue work requires power, endurance and sensitivity in the whole body. In using the hands for energetic transformation it is important to develop and maintain a keen sense of the practitioner’s balance throughout the whole body. Build your energy before entering the training through aerobic and isometric exercise. A minimum aerobic program is 25 to 40 minute workout three times a week in activities that exercise the whole body such as running, dancing, and swimming. In isometric exercise care should be taken not to overdevelop muscles or create an imbalance between muscle groups by working with excessive weights. But extra development is needed in the fingers, wrists, forearms, and back. Medium weights, fingers in clay, are some ways to prepare. Light masssage is excellent but only really firm petrissage will significantly strengthen your hands for deep work. BALANCE AND MOVEMENT AWARENESS. Control and flow of our work depends on our energy coming from the whole body, and being balanced in the pelvis. Tai Chi, yoga, acrobatics, and dancing can help you find this center. The Alexander Technique and Feldenkrais method can help in using the whole body around this center.
