Zero Balancing - The Integration of Body Energy and Structure
What is Zero Balancing?
Zero Balancing (ZB) is a hands-on bodywork system designed to align your energy body with your physical structure. Simple, yet powerful, it focuses on your whole person, even when addressing specific needs. Considered at the leading edge of body/mind therapies, ZB moves beyond Western scientific approaches to body structure by incorporating Eastern concepts of energy and healing. This enables the practitioner to work simultaneously with your structural and energy bodies to bring balance.
When structure and energy are balanced, dysfunctional habits, such as outmoded emotional patterns and imprints from past traumas, tend to release. In addition, you are able to function with relative ease, efficiency and comfort, cope with things better, and enjoy more robust health. This is why people experiencing Zero Balancing report experiencing a sense of fluidity, integration and well being following a session.
"The effects I have seen in people following ZB sessions have led me to understand that the bridging of energy and matter exists in the level of the body and the mind and the spirit of the person, and that any or all of these levels can be addressed."
Fritz Smith, MD,
"Inner Bridges: A guide to Energy Movement and Body Structure."
A Unique Form of Touch
Zero Balancing is a unique form of touch. Everything in a ZB session is designed to promote maximum relaxation and a sense of well being. Some people describe experiencing, "expanded states of awareness," others, "tension melting away," and still others say, "it's like feeling balanced to zero". A form of touch known as interface distinguishes the process. Interface touch is very different from the touch found in other modalities of healing or the way we generally touch each other, where there is energy blending or transferring of energy. When working with structure and energy, interface touch is essential as it maintains a clear and inviolate boundary between the practitioner and the client, allowing the practitioner to balance the client's own body structure with the clients own body energy.
"If you can balance something to neutral without judgment or comparison by holding it in its own space, it will naturally move to its highest benefit."
Fritz Smith M.D., Founder of ZB.
Zero Balancing is ideal for helping prevent and relieve the problems encountered in this harried world we live in. ZB creates a point of stillness where the mind quiets, the energy fields organize and internal reorientation occurs. This process is designed to work in tandem with primary healthcare, focusing on deep quieting and integration of the body/mind/ and spirit to promote optimum functioning.
"There is only one striving, namely, the striving after your own being."
C.C. Jung
Who Can Benefit From Zero Balancing?
People in any number of situations can benefit form ZB. From the person under pressure or having stress related symptoms to the well person who wishes to maintain optimal health or is on a journey of self-discovery and self-actualization.
The latest research shows that changes in energy fields actually preceded disease and illness. Zero Balancing is 'holistic' because it deals with energy and energy fields directly, as well as with body structure. The balancing processes often release stress before it becomes physically manifested. Likewise, they release old or outmoded tissue-held patterns and imprints, supporting change and growth in an organize, integrated way. While Zero Balancing looks at symptoms, it moves beyond them to address our more fundamental nature. After a session, the vibrations of stress pass through he body more easily, making difficult situations less problematic.
In essence, the quality of energy and structure, and their relationship to one another in the body, directly affects how well we function physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
Traditionally body, psyche, and spirit nature have been addressed separately. This fragmentation of the whole person has brought about extensive specialization and insight into each of the parts, but has often driven us further away from understanding how they work together.
"It is entirely possible to work therapeutically with all aspects of the person: body, mind, emotions, and soul simultaneously. It is not always necessary to separate out these parts of ourselves to be doctored by specialists of each one. We are whole and we carry the truth and method of that wholeness within ourselves."
