What happens in a Montreal Block Therapy class?
ANY AGE OR FITNESS LEVEL can join in the classes unless designated advanced class. A fitness program that embraces the individual aspect of your body, fitness level and pace you like to work at . The individual lies on a therapeutic tool called the Block Buddy for a minimum of 3 minutes in sequential positions and specific movement throughout the body. Wood is used as the therapeutic tool because, unlike artificial materials like foam or plastic, it shares similar density to bone. With gravity and body weight, the Block Buddy is able to sink deeply into the tissue, all the way to the bone. This pressure brings increased blood and oxygen into the area, thereby warming the connective tissue and “melting” the powerful seal between layers that creates unhealthy restrictions. The student is taught to use diaphragmatic breathing which pulls into the body up to 6x's more oxygen. This combination of increased oxygen, proper posture and alignment, and the freeing of adhesions form the basis of the system. Lying on this block is incredibly relaxing and takes the body out of fight or flight mode. If you are a person that has a hard time meditating, this work would be incredibly rewarding for you. Block Therapy can be done in class here in the Montreal studio, at home. Or when traveling on your own time by purchasing a Block and online classes
