Tomás Prietto is founder of Body Awareness Works, as well as a lead instructor in Cortical Field Re-Education® (CFR) and CranioSacral Therapy®. His 20-year journey of sporting injuries, auto accidents, and surgeries resulted in constant, chronic nerve pain. That's the bad news; the good news is that during this time, he learned how to use self-adjustment tools to avoid increased pain and further surgery or injury. These skills or tools are what he teaches others.
This is not Pilates, yoga, exercise, stretching, isometrics, guided imagery, meditation, or tai chi. These are learned skills that you always carry with you as a toolkit and a completely different way of approaching human movement patterns. Your intuitive self will be guided in learning new movement patterns. This is an individual experience taught in a group setting. Imagine lying on your back with your eyes closed making snow angels like a child. It is both play and self discovery, similar to how we learned to walk, skip, and run.
Tomás’s teachers and practice lineages include Harriet Goslins of Cortical Field Reeducation®, Lansing Gresham’s Integrated Awareness®, The Upledger Institute, The Barral Institute, and Visceral Manipulation.
