Does Structural Integration hurt?
Structural Integration focuses on working very deep regions of the body which at times can be very intense. The level of intensity in the area is typically directly related to what or how much trauma/strain the tissues have undergone. For example, a client undergoing the 10 sessions who has had many traumas/injuries throughout his or her life may experience the sessions with more sensory richness than an athlete seeking with more resilient tissues seeking to enhance his or her human potential. Physically, sensations range from warm and pleasant to feelings of discomfort or burning. During the sessions I work at the pace of the client and most importantly the breath, which assists in accepting the greater level of depth.
