What is the difference between the Method developed by Moshe Feldenkrais and Movement Lesson™?

Moshe Feldenkrais focused his method on movement awareness.

It has become known as an exercise therapy that focuses on creating movement awareness to increase movement abilities. 

This is done using gentle movement exercises to increase ones known or unknown perceived self-image.

Meaning, that if the body can figure the movement out it will and if the body can't do the movement, it won't figure it out. 

ML believes that the body can't "FIGURE OUT" what the body doesn't know. 

There is so much hidden potential in the body that can only be unlocked with gentle rotational touch and other specific ML techniques.

When the body has no choice to make a movement, that movement can't be "figured out."

The body and brain shouldn't have to "figure out" movement.

Movement Lesson takes the "figuring out" out of movement and puts the natural progression of movement back in the body using the Functional Movement Development Process explained in more detail above.

What is the difference between the Method developed by Anat Baniel and Movement Lesson™?

Anat Baniel has focused her method on brain plasticity (neuroplasticity) and the brain's ability to make changes in movement. 

The goal is to wake up the brain so it can make more powerful movement changes.

The goal is to overcome limitations through the power of the brain.

Anat teaches parents and practitioners 9 Essential to overcome pain and increase vitality.

Most importantly the Method created by Anat Baniel focuses on the brain's ability to change and is the heart of the body's ability to learn movement and thinking patterns.

ML believes that movement maps the brain, the brain cannot map movement.  

The brain is powerful and when an easier way to create movement is shown to the brain, new neuroconnections are made and the brain goes with what is easier to create function and movement in the body. 

When the body is shown how to create a movement by responding with rotation and weight transfer this creates a type of commensalism symbiotic relationship between the body's movement and the earth's gravity.

When this relationship is established, the body can now move in and through gravity instead of succumbing to gravity and eventually giving out because of the pressure of gravity.

Michelle has presented 21 theories of gravity and movement in her book You Can't Get to Mars Without Me

She also has a specific timeline for when babies should be presenting their movement, vision, and push/pull milestones.

When these milestones are missed by babies, she teaches how to put the milestones back in the babies, children, and adults to get them back on the path of milestone momentum.

Most importantly Movement Lesson focuses on the body's ability to create rotational movement responses within the space we call gravity. The brain becomes better as a result, but that is a byproduct to first creating rotational movements in the body.

What is the difference between the Method created by Glenn Doman and Movement Lesson™?

Glenn Doman believed that for a special needs child, the source of the problem is the brain.

He wanted to help brain-injured children internationally to reach their full potential by focusing on techniques (flashcards and such) that improve child brain development.

He believed that traditional therapeutic techniques focused on treating the symptoms of real problems special needs children were and are having.

ML believes that the common denominator among all special needs children and adults, brain injury or not, is a lack of rotational movements in the body.

Brain functions automatically improve when the body can make rotational movement responses to the gravitational stimuli and other environmental stimuli around them.

The true source of the problem is not the brain (though it can play a part in a child's developmental challenges), but the lack of rotational movements in the body, and second to that is the lack of functional vision.

What is the difference between Quantum Reflex Integration (QRI) and Movement Lesson™ Reflex Integration?

A program that uses QRI harmonic laser to integrate what is believed to be infant reflexes by putting the low-level laser on acu-points and known reflex patterns.

Movement Lesson believes that reflexes are movements needed by the skeletal system to be able to go into developmental movement patterns.

To successfully integrate reflexes you need to understand where a child is at in the movement process and then start to organize the body according to that process so the body can start to naturally integrate true reflex responses. 

ML believes that reflexes are misidentified and that the creation of reflexes is based on a developing gravity and movement relationship. 

Rotational movements are an important part of a baby's ability to fully integrate true primitive reflex responses into their system.

Is Movement Lesson™ Massage Therapy or Chiropractic Manipulation?

No, ML is not any type of therapy or chiropractic manipulation of the bones. It's a modality that teaches you what functional movement is and how to create it in the body.

Is Movement Lesson™ Therapy?

No, ML is not any type of therapy; including, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and vision therapy. It's a modality that teaches you what functional movement is and how to create it in the body.

How does Movement Lesson™ apply to my child or client and their specific diagnosis if they have one?

When doing ML™ on someone, you are giving that person a lesson in functional movement.

Anyone can be taught functional movements regardless of the diagnosis.

Structural issues like any type of visual impairment, hip dysplasia, any dimorphic hip or bone features, etc. will require a little more guidance from a High Profile ML™ Practitioner to help you successfully apply the technique and work with structural abnormalities in the body.

Can Movement Lesson™ be used Pre and Post Surgery?

Always consult with your doctor before doing any therapy or modality pre and post surgery.

ML™ has been used pre and post basic surgeries like carpel tunnel, hand, foot, SPML Surgery for Cerebral Palsy, etc.

ML™ has been used pre and post major surgeries like heart or back surgery, scoliosis surgery, PAO surgery for hip dysplasia, or any type of hip surgery, etc. 

Conslut with a High Profile ML™ Practitioner to know the best course of action to take for your child or client regarding their surgery after you have the doctors approval to practice the modality.
