FREE Grinberg Method Therapy –20 Minute Sessions with certified practitioner Maria Kim on Saturday, March 17th from noon to 4pm at 1st Defense

What is the Grinberg Method? This is a holistic therapy which uses touch, breath, movement, physical exercises, description tools and techniques to increase one’s ability to pay attention. What does it do? An article in the UK Telegraph puts it this way: ”Quite simply it identifies what you are unconsciously doing to yourself to make yourself feel less than top-notch, and teaches you how not to.” Whether you are dealing with physical or psychological pain, self-defeating behaviors, an inability to focus and move forward, or just the feeling of not realizing your true potential, the Grinberg Method is a remarkable therapy that helps you recognize what you are doing within your body to create patterns and then helps you to break free of them. Participants have reported life-changing results, from release of chronic pain to the establishment of new careers.
There are few certified Grinberg practitioners in the U.S., and 1st Defense is proud to welcome one of them, Maria Kim, to our studio. Ms. Kim will be offering free 20 minute sessions for interested parties who would like to experience the Grinberg Method. All you need is do is come in and sit in a chair for your appointment. Given that these are free sessions, we suggest you arrive early, as it is first come, first served.
