Not wanting to do that, I found out about the Feldenkrais Method and decided to give it a try.I completed 15 Functional Integration sessions, and was amazed to go from facing back surgery to being pain free.” Shirley Beieler Orthodontic Laboratory Technician/Manager, Feldenkrais practitioner trainee
