Moshé Feldenkrais experienced unexpected recovery from knee injuries after a night’s sleep, leading him to investigate the brain-body connection. He hypothesized that brain inhibition in one limb could trigger compensatory movement in another. This spurred his studies, culminating in his belief in the unity of mind and body as an objective reality. Through integrating his experiences in judo and neuroscience, he developed the Feldenkrais Method, encapsulated in 11 core principles focused on enhancing movement and overall function for holistic well-being.
Feldenkrais' unexpected recovery led him to conclude that physical condition isn't the only factor influencing body function, prompting his deeper study in neuroscience.
Feldenkrais emphasized the unity of mind and body as an objective reality, asserting they function together as an indispensable whole rather than separate parts.
His journey combined judo training, personal research, and neuroscience to develop the 11 core principles of the Feldenkrais Method, aimed at holistic movement improvement.
The brain's capacity to adapt and compensate plays a critical role in recovery, highlighting the intricate link between physical injuries and neurological function.
