PANDICULATION
The AEQ method® is characterized by pandiculation, which restores the feeling of muscle control and improves a certain movement pattern. Pandiculation is an active approach to solving the problem...
FROM THE CENTER OF THE BODY TOWARDS THE PERIPHERY
The body's structure, the shape of the pelvis, and the state of the strongest central muscles tell us that the body's movement originates from the center of the body and spreads towards the periphery.
MOVEMENT IS FOUNDED ON COOPERATION
Several muscles participate in the movement simultaneously, and the sensory-motor system is responsible for it, which is based on the cooperation (synergy) of agonist and antagonist muscles. The agonist is the muscle...
AEQ EDUCATION
AEQ education is a process that broadens the horizons of our consciousness and free will. Moshe Feldenkrais is considered the pioneer of clinical somatics, which was substantiated and used by Elsa Gindler, F. Mathias Alexander...
Principi AEQ
Skozi večletno prakso opažam, da je 80 do 90 % kroničnim bolečinam vzrok senzorno-motorična amnezije (SMA). To je stanje, v katerem senzorno-motorični nevroni cerebralnega korteksa izgubijo del sposobnosti zaznavanja in nadzora skeletnih mišic. Senzorno-motorična amnezija ne nastane niti kot organska lezija v cerebralnem corteksu niti kot vidna poškodba mišično-skeletnega sistema. Pojavlja se kot funkcionalni primanjkljaj, ko se sposobnost cerebralnega korteksa za nadzor kontrakcij skeletnih mišic prenese v subkortikalne senzorno motorne povratne zanke. Te kronično ukazujejo dvig mišičnega tonusa nad realno potrebno raven v pretekosti sprogramirani ravni v 10 %, 30 %, 60 % tonusa. Hkrati pa cerebralni korteks v ustreznem razmerju izgubi zmožnost sprostitve teh mišičnih skupin, ki so v stanju SMA. Takim mišičnim skupinam tonus lahko zavestno dvigujemo, ne moremo pa jih sprostiti - znižati tonusa pod raven, ki jo določa subkortikalna senzorno povratna zanka. Tega se neposredno ne zavedamo, čeprav čutimo posledice povišanega povprečnega tonusa.
LEARNING THROUGH AEQ EXERCISES
Failure does not exist if you have learned from your mistakes and improved yourself. Keep that in mind, and you will achieve more. In fact, you will achieve everything that is realistically achievable if you...
AEQ EXERCISES
With AEQ exercises, we can improve the mind-body connection, the feeling, and control of the muscles, and look for the easiest way possible to perform the exercise's movements. Pain and movement limitations...
Active AEQ learning sessions
With learning AEQ method, we eliminate sensory-motor amnesia and learn to guide body movements consciously. When done correctly, we learn to detect feelings during movement to such a degree that it...
PAINFUL MENSTRUATION
Dysmenorrhea is the medical term for menstrual cramps caused by uterine contractions, and it is similar to contractions at childbirth. The uterus (which is a muscle) mildly contracts throughout a woman’s menstrual cycle, however...
PREGNANCY AND HOW THE AEQ METHOD CAN HELP
The center of body’s gravity shifts forward in the last months of pregnancy, causing an increased curve of the lower back (lumbar curve) and the pelvis to move forward. Furthermore, the tension in the back muscles increases...
