Restorative Practices
The Elemental Body Alignment System (EBAS)
The Elemental Body Alignment System Levels I and II is a series of exercises created by Scott Putman designed for structural integrity and supported range of motion. This work is designed to deepen the student’s understanding of where movement comes from, how to align the body and to build a physical consciousness of open pathways of energy for movement.
Elsie received her certifications for both Level I and II in June of 2018 from Scott Putman and is listed as an official certified EBAS instructor.
Thai Bodywork
Thai Bodywork is an hour and a half long healing session during which, the practitioner uses their palms, elbows, knees and feet to compress muscles, stimulate acupressure points, and gently stretch the body allowing it to relax, open, and literally decompress. The Thai method traces and clears energetic pathways which cover all muscle groups and organs, refreshing the major body systems. Called the Moving Meditation, this intricate, fluid, and intuitive cleansing series, promotes deep relaxation within the body and stillness within the mind while alleviating all types of ailments and injuries, leaving you feeling calm and centered. Thai bodywork is practiced on a thick comfortable mat on the floor and for total ease the client remains fully clothed as this practice does not contain oils or creams.
Elsie received her Thai Bodywork Essentials certification at Woven Body Healing Arts, a nationally recognized school of Thai massage, by certified Thai practitioner and teacher Damion Bond in December 2018.
