Self-Healing Though Movement and Natural Vision Improvement

Workshop: Reducing Stress During the Holiday Season

with Meir Schneider, Ph.D., L.M.T.

The body and eyes are far more interrelated than people realize. Poor posture, constricted upper body movement and muscle tightness all affect vision.

Did you know that the body has over 600 muscles, but most people only use 50? Learn how to relax those chronically overused muscles and use muscles that you’ve never used before, enhancing circulation and bringing the body into better balance.

Join Meir Schneider to discover a more alive way of seeing. Learn easy and effective exercises to improve vision– effective for near- or far-sightedness, cataracts, eye fatigue, glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa, strabismus, amblyopia, computer vision syndrome and other vision disorders.

Learn to bring flexibility to your body and visual system during times of high stress during the holiday season.

He is in the UK to deliver workshops introducing his methods and assisting improvement for neuromuscular conditions, degenerative problems, those wishing to improve their eyesight and reduce age related deterioration.

Discover your body’s innate power to heal itself! Join Dr. Meir Schneider to explore the principles of his ground-breaking method of Self-Healing through Bodywork and Movement, a powerful, holistic health-care program for the body and eyes. Learn how you can relax your eyes through facial massage and conscious resting and reduce the need for glasses, and prevent age-related vision deterioration. Learn how to use your muscles in balance, efficiently, to increase joint mobility, and circulation. Learn how massage, movement, and natural vision improvement can help you age with vitality.

You probably know that injury or disease can lead to degenerative conditions in the body and eyes, but did you know that your lifestyle or profession is just as hazardous to your health? Due to muscle memory from daily routine, a person– on average, uses less that 10% of their 600 total muscles. Just as these imbalanced movement patterns damage our bodies, our habits of staring at computer screens and relying on glasses cause us to ignore our peripheries and eventually deteriorate our vision.

Dr. Schneider will teach you how to relax overused muscles and use muscles you’ve never used before. Discover how to use your muscles efficiently, increase joint mobility, build a healthy back, and prevent degenerative conditions of the body and eyes. Come learn how to nurture and heal your visual system by developing healthy eye habits.

Take this workshop to improve your own health and that of your patients, clients or loved ones.

Workshop attendees may earn 6 CE units per day.

a Workshop with Meir Schneider, Ph.D., L.M.T.

April 16, 2011 ~ 10:00am - 5:00pm

You can learn to create and maintain lifelong health! Often lifestyle, profession, injury or disease create imbalanced movement patterns in the body and with the use of the eyes, which in turn lead to degenerative conditions. Did you know we have over 600 muscles but most of us use the same 50 over and over? Sitting at computers or wearing glasses and focusing straight ahead at one focal point, we ignore the periphery until we have functionally lost much of it.

This workshop will teach you how to relax overused muscles and use muscles you have never used before. You will learn how to use your muscles efficiently, increase joint mobility, how to build a healthy back and to prevent degenerative conditions of the body. You will learn how to nurture and heal your visual system through developing healthy eye habits.

Take this workshop and learn how to improve your own health or that of a loved one.
