BODY LANGUAGE THERAPY

MOVEMENT (DANCE) AS MEANS OF COMMUNICATION, EXPRESSION AS A METHOD OF HEALING & MEDICINE AS MEDIUM AND LIAISON...


The earliest indications on the performance of dances date from Prehistory, in the Paleolithic (3.3 million years) where rock paintings attest to the existence of primitive dances.

BODY LANGUAGE THERAPY

Body Language Therapy / Technique Nadine Thouin* is a method of healing using dance (MOVEMENT) as the theraputic mediator. Since the begining of humanity, dance was used in all aspects of life for its virtuous benefits; rituals of healing, rights of passage, ceremonies of union, fertility, birth, and death.

The term "therapy" in its original sense means "bring back into harmony". This approach focuses on rediscovering the inherint faculties of body language and dance belonging to each individual, and akin to personal well-being.

*Holistic approach; method of care which takes into account the individual as a whole – physical, emotionnal, mental, and spiritual aspects of life, which differs from conventional medicine which considers only the illness.

«... The dance is a universal language which, in fact, is addressed to the total man and not to this small part of the body, celebrity, intellectual and more or less empty….Dancing is above all to communicate, to unite, to join, to speak to one another in the depths of his being. Dance is union, union of man with man, of man with the cosmos, of man with God»

- Maurice Béjart

MEDITATION

Meditation is a return to oneself. A practice to acquire peace and inner strength. A personal development through self-observation, and detachment from the constant desire of doing. Meditation creates balance through the cessation of thought, and the realization of a state of non duality.

MASSAGE THERAPY

«Massage has existed since man has existed .... It is a natural instinct to rub parts of the body to alleviate pain.»


BODY LANGUAGE THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE
(Body-Mind Mecanics & Therapy)

It is through 43 years of career in the specialty of body language that Nadine Thouin developed her technique and philosophy of self-healing. Based on the observation of signs that the body transmits, this unique approach allows for a proper diagnostic of the specific problems of each individual. The whole body is interconnected – it is an immense communication network which connects all of its parts one to the other. A personalized initiative that directs the individual to become autonomous towards his health.

«One can easily lie with words, they are perfect vehicles lying, but we can never lie with the body ...» - Maurice Béjart

TANAKA MASSAGE

From Japanese dancer and actor Min Tanaka, this style of massage follows the natural rhythm of the subject, focusing attention on the mind, body and respiration throughout the massage. Tanaka massage is practiced fully dressed, on the ground.

The technique allows for a unique exchange between participants - both are active and receptive. The breathing used in Tanaka places emphasis on long exhalation, allowing for a meditative state of unity, relaxation and elimination of toxins (both mental and physical).

These benefits strengthen the body's immune system and accelerates the phenomenon of self-healing – in particular, diseases stemming from the blockage of flowing energy in the body.
