Zero Balancing (ZB) is hands-on body work that feels wonderful. Some people say it's like a massage without having to take off your clothes and therapy without having to say a word. During the 45-60 minutes a typical session lasts, you will experience a deeply meditative state, in which tension and discomfort dissipate easily. Your experience will be one of relaxation, resilience, comfort and expansion. ZB is safe and gentle, suitable for people of all ages.
Zero Balancing was developed by Dr. Fritz Smith, osteopathic physician and one of the first acupuncturists to be certified in the United States. Dr Smith discovered that when he balanced a Western, scientific approach to the physical body with Eastern concepts of energy and healing, his patients got better faster. And, in an unexpected turn, their lives and relationships improved as well. By focusing on bone, and in particular on the body’s foundation joints – the primary function of which is to absorb stresses rather than to facilitate voluntary movement – ZB works in the places where you “don’t know what you don’t know.” It increases awareness and bridges the conscious and unconscious minds. With more of yourself available, change seems to happen effortlessly. Many people who come initially for physical healing, come back for the personal growth they discover.
