TOPICS:
Supporting Balance and Proprioception through the Feldenkrais Method
Presented by Amber Adams, a Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner

Amber has years of experience in dance, martial arts, and full certification in Pilates. Through Feldenkrais,
she found ways to achieve effortless, powerful movement at an accelerated pace. Amber enjoys helping her
students gain the awareness and skills to make tangible, powerful transformations in their lives. Proprioceptive
sensors in the joints give the brain feedback regarding alignment of the bones of the joints and how the body is moving them.


FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OR TO RSVP, CONTACT YOUR LOCAL SUPPORT GROUP LEADERS/FACILITATORS:

Lauren Goldberg, Local Support Group Leader/Facilitator
Miranda Warren Sacharin, Local Support Group Leader/Facilitator

Lauren Goldberg, a post-treatment acoustic neuroma patient, and Miranda Warren Sacharin, family member/caregiver
to a post-treatment acoustic neuroma patient, will facilitate the meeting.

Who should attend? Family members, caregivers, friends and interested persons are encouraged to attend.

Benefits of attending a local support group include communicating in a nurturing, non-judgmental environment
with others who have shared a common acoustic neuroma experience; sharing information on dealing with specific problems,
overcoming handicaps and reassuring others that better times lie ahead; educating and informing each other about the latest
acoustic neuroma topics of interest; and providing emotional support to all patients, both pre- and post-treatment. This helps
 in reducing the isolation and loneliness that many acoustic neuroma patients feel.
