Hannah Pierce looks at the whole person when working with their structural aligment. She wants people to understand how their aligmnent reflects the stresses in their lives. Correct body alignment dramatically enhances overall flexibility and provides greater ease of movement.
"The structure of our bodies is related to the structure and organization of our lives. It is affected by all the events we experience, including physical tension, injuries and emotional stress, or even athletic endeavors. The resulting imbalances and compensations may often be felt as pain, fatigue or poor posture," says Hanah.
A Rolfer for more than eight years, Hanah uses her hands to work with muscles and connective tissue to reorganize the body's "core structures," including the spine and pelvis. In this process, she opens up more space within the body, allowing for deeper breathing and the release of energy blockages. As the body becomes "unclogged" and realigned, symptoms of pain often disappear. Hannah's interest in bodywork grew from her study of psychology, which gave her an understanding of the various aspects of human behavior and dynamics. She incorporates this knowledge into the educational and counseling aspects of her work.
Hannah gets to know clients and takes care to explain the kinds of changes that may occur through Rolfing. Clients have reported positive changes in their physical well-being, mental attitude and even in their relationships. In fact, some people have found Rolfing to be an important step in their personal and spiritual development.
To further enhance her supportive skills, Hannah has pursued training in movement/process work, regression therapy and accident and trauma release. She also has a great deal of experience in working with victims of abuse.
Hannah likes to think of herself as a facilitator, helping people strip away the layers that may be obstructing their physical, mental or spiritual well-being and opening doors to creative awareness. "I enjoy helping people incorporate their new ways of being into their daily lives," she says. "This is how we extend our love into the world."
