How does the Feldenkrais® Method ® Differ from Massage and Chiropractic?

These are structured approaches that seek to effect change through changes in structure (muscles and spine). The Feldenkrais® Method works with your ability to regulate and coordinate your movement, which means working with the nervous system and the whole person.
