WHAT IS BIOENERGETIC ANALYSIS?
Bioenergetic Analysis (sometimes shortened to "Bioenergetics") is a form of psychotherapy that believes that there is no real separation between the mind and body. It helps us understand ourselves in terms of our body and its energy patterns. Its theory and practice base rests on the work of Sigmund Freud and Wilhelm Reich. This was later developed by Alexander Lowen, and called “Bioenergetic Analysis”. Bioenergetics also builds on recent research into the importance of early human development and how that effects adults later in life. In general, Bioenergetic Psychotherapy helps you become aware of how tension from stress and old hurts are held in the body. It works to heal these hurts and restore your energy, creativity, and feelings of well-being.
