Ilana Nachoum

Feldenkrais® Practitioner and Physical Therapist
Tiburon, Marin, San Francisco
My practice has helped a wide variety of people: musicians, athletes,
artists, children and elders.
My patients suffer from a diversity of conditions:
 |
Acute Pain
Chronic Pain
Auto Accidents
Pre- and Post- Surgery
Repetitive Strain Injury
Neurological conditions
Back and Neck Pain
Injuries from Work
Sports Injuries
Stress
...and many more
|
|
I help my patients to see, feel and learn from their pain, a journey that identifies the origin of pain,
rather than searching for an instantaneous - and fleeting - fix.
Along the path, the relief from pain can happen in surprising ways. My patients testimonials led me to think
of my work as the "Transformation of Pain"

"Ilana helped me to see how my pain and muscular holding patterns represented an outdated self-image"
- Stacey (Repetitive Stress Injury) |
As I address your symptoms and attend to the whole spectrum of body,
mind, emotion and spirit, I furnish you with personally tailored
tools (movements, affirmations, awareness) that will empower you to
be SELF reliant and will enable you to manage your pain.

"Each time I become aware of the tension,
I use the tools I get from Ilana and the music flows."
- Heidi (violinist with the San Francisco Opera, suffered from acute tendonitis) |
Pain changed my life... how does it affect YOUR life?
In the late 1980's I suffered from debilitating chronic back and leg
pain. During the journey of my recovery I developed a movement
program using cylindrical foam rollers, a program now used by a
variety of health practitioners. More importantly, this journey
illuminated parts of myself that were previously unknown to me.
Today I can say "Thank you" to my back pain for having initiated my
own self awareness.
Our bodies speak - the language is complex
Together we can decode the messages your body expresses through its
discomfort. Let's take the healing journey towards fixing your
external conditioned by exploring their deeper causes. The journey
cultivates self-awareness through the awakening consciousness of
physical, emotional, spiritual and cognitive aspects of being.
