Balance and Alignment: The Foundation

The foundation of my work is the hands-on healing technique called Subtle Body Alignment^tm.  I developed this technique out of my integration of many different healing philosophies and systems. I have trained in craniosacral therapy, cranial osteopathy, Continuum movement, movement therapy, guided imagery and meditation, Therapeutic Touch, Integrated Energy Therapy (IET), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and other healing techniques.

Subtle Body Alignment combines subtle body (energy field) balancing with gentle, non-forceful, whole body manipulation and craniosacral work. Soft tissue manipulation (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia), visceral manipulation (organ balancing) and lymphatic drainage are also used. The work focuses on the connection and balance between the physical and subtle bodies, releasing patterns of strain and restriction, opening blockages and freeing your body's innate capacity for self-healing and balance. It is soothing and relaxing and may include guided imagery and breathing. Sessions are usually thirty to forty five minutes long, and are done lying or sitting on a comfortable table in loose, un-restrictive clothing.

Subtle Body Alignment can be helpful for the following:
* musculoskeletal problems, neck or back pain, fibromyalgia

* energetic imbalances, stress and trauma
* muscular imbalances and postural problems
* joint pain or injury, arthritis
* repetitive strain injuries; carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis
* nerve pain, sciatica, cervical radiculitis
* headaches, TMJ disorders
* respiratory problems; sinus conditions, asthma, bronchitis, ear infections
* digestive problems, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome
* menstrual or menopausal problems and PMS
* breast problems such as tenderness, lymphatic congestion, and recovery from breast surgery

The Subtle Body Health Concept

The Subtle Body Health concept expands on Subtle Body Alignment by finding the nutritional and lifestyle patterns that nourish your spirit as well as your body. It begins with an in-depth evaluation of your health issues and concerns. Looking at your patterns of nourishment and self-care often reveals places where we can make simple changes to improve your well-being. These may include changes in diet or eating patterns, the addition of nutrients in the form of supplements or herbs, or changes in sleep, relaxation and exercise habits. Meditation or visualization exercises, breathing or energy exercises, flower remedies and homeopathic remedies may also be suggested. I also use Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), a powerful energy technique that helps to clear energetic patterns that contribute to a variety of health issues. My treatment recommendations are individually designed to meet your unique needs, and your unique lifestyle.

Testimonials

"I have known and worked with Carol Robin for the past twenty years.  What I find outstanding about her work is the combination of strength, gentleness and great wisdom in her hands, and that she approaches her clients as vital members of a planetary community on a shared journey.  Carol is a healing artist, a transformational facilitator, a doctor of the soul."
      Andrew Ramer, Author (Ask Your Angels, Angel Answers, Revelations for a New Millenium)

"Carol brings to her work a full spectrum of gifts and skills:  intelligence, sensitivity, knowledge, groundedness, training, experience, integrity - and wonderful hands!  Equally important to me, she has the courage and humility to tend to her own healing process, which makes her able to bring to her clients a full presence and true compassion."
      Susan Ray, Saugerties, NY

"Entering Carol's office, one immediately feels a sense of peace, groundedness and healing. Her intuitive approach to bodywork and teaching has helped me connect to my body/mind's own resources in a profound way."
      Clare Overlander, Northampton, MA

"After being diagnosed with breast cancer, I asked Carol to do energy work with me in preparation for, and during, surgery.  In our first meeting, my sense of dread was completely transformed so that I now faced my surgery with a sense of adventure, embracing the opportunity for growth.  My doctors and I were amazed at how quickly I healed and the meditation and visualization work I did with Carol allowed me to tap into a core of strength and balance which continues to support me."
