From Bodily Knowledge to Intuitive Movement
Handspring Publishing Limited (Verlag)
9781909141001 (ISBN)
This book prepares physical therapists, yoga therapists and all movement practitioners to recognize various components of discomfort including the bio, psycho, social and spiritual contributions to posture, movement patterns, and to their pain. This multi-layered approach helps readers utilize the methodology to then share and collaborate with clients to help devise their personalized approach to self awareness and bodily presence.
Sherry Brourman masterfully coalesces physical therapy, yoga therapy and pain science to create this valuable resource that ultimately utilizes intuitive movement for better health.
The book offers practical advice, real-life examples and case studies as well as deep insight into how individual bodies can move and heal within each body's 'normal'.
Twelve key yoga postures, their transitions, and energetic missions are explored in great depth as templates, giving practitioners the insight to choose and share the self-empowered process of inner investigation. This becomes the reasoning for choices including yoga therapy sequencing as response to multi-layered health conditions.
Sherry Brourman is a movement educator. Starting at 12 years old, she volunteered at a school for handicapped children and continued there until leaving for Boston University; graduating as a physical therapist in 1973. At her first professional job, she was assigned the task of evaluating 60 disabled children for whether they might learn to walk with training, thus initiating her quest for understanding the potential benefits of movement education. Subsequently at Rusk Institute in NYC, Sherry developed classical skills for working with persistent pain and long term rehabilitation. In 1975, she opened the first private physical therapy office in New Mexico. There, Sherry began teaching yoga to her patients in small group classes. During this time, she was also studying individual walking as the template for her patient's other physical activities, inspiring her groundbreaking book, Walk Yourself Well, 1998. Soon after, Sherry began teaching the confluence of physical therapy, gait and yoga therapy and taught a course chiefly for professionals for their understanding of the more common (at that time) yoga injuries that their patients were experiencing as well as teaching functional anatomy for the Loyola Marymount University Yoga Therapy program. These courses and their applications for her patients became the notes for her new book, From Bodily Knowledge to Intuitive Movement, Where Physical Therapy, Yoga Therapy and Pain Science Meet, (SD 2025). Sherry continues her 50th year in practice and her study to enrich these concepts, in her words, as a lifelong exploration.
