General information

People come to see me for a variety of reasons: for help with injuries (both recent and long term); aches, pains and stiffness; muscular spasm, trauma and tension; neurological difficulties; brain damage; birth trauma both mother and baby; to improve posture; to help with balance; reducing stress mental, emotional and physical; tiredness; move freely and improve their health. Clients also come to improve skills and focus e.g. musicians, dancers, actors, teachers, sports activities. I also work with babies and children with special needs. Mostly people come to let go of restrictions causing discomfort and pain, enjoy flexibility and regain control over their bodies.

About Holistic Balance - Raewyn Morrison:

I became interested in body work therapies following a period of back pain, when a friend recommended that I try Ortho-Bionomy. It was gentle, non-intrusive and effective and I was soon free of pain. I was so impressed, I went on to train in Massage and Ortho-Bionomy. In Switzerland and England in 1989

I was later drawn to The Feldenkrais Method. Feldenkrais uses; movement to stimulate the brain, and reduce excessive muscular effort. Helping with posture, flexibility and relieving aches and pains. I became a registered feldenkrais practitioner in 1999. Feldenkrais utilizes our brain's capacity for learning and is somatic: learning from within, mind body movement. See below for information on advanced training "Working with Children".

I was interested in Craniosacral Therapy, originating from Sutherland's work; the founder of Cranial Osteopathy. It's a very gentle approach to healing: the body, mind and spirit. I completed my training in 2008, and became a registered Craniosacral therapist. Rather than focus on disease, craniosacral therapy aims to concentrate on the full health potential of the individual; building resource, through stillness, balance and inner calm. It's also about resolving long-standing health issues through accessing these deep levels.

"WORKING with CHILDREN", an advanced Feldenkrais training in Malmo Sweden 2014-15. Based on the work of Moshe Feldenkrais and Anat Baniel, using body plasticity or neuroplasticity, the focus is on babies and children with brain, neurological difficulties and special needs. To see challenged babies and children learn new skills, previously not thought possible is truly heart warming.

I work in Sheffield and London, United Kingdom. Check out my website for more information. www.holisticbalance.co.uk
