Feldenkrais for work-related tension

For the tightness that builds up from long hours, repetitive tasks, or a desk you're stuck at most of the day.

Tension that accumulates without you noticing

You may recognize this if:

  • your shoulders or neck feel tight by the end of most workdays

  • stretching or massage helps briefly, but the tension is back within a day or two

  • you've caught yourself hunched, clenched, or holding your breath without meaning to
