    The history of body therapy

    What is body therapy and where does it come from? Within the last decade the idea of working with mental problems of our time through the body has become more and more acknowledged.  But the idea of treating psychical conditions like stress, anxiety and depression, through the body is not at all new. Manuvision body therapy was founded in 1998 in Denmark, and has developed its own techniques working with the interactions between body and mind. In this podcast, one of the founders of Manuvision, Kristoffer GlavinIn talks about the influence and roots of Manuvision body therapy, According to Kristoffer Glavind Kjær, the history of body therapy can be linked to especially one figure: Wilhelm Reich, an Austrian doctor and psychoanalyst, who took part in the Freudian movement. “Reich is central to body therapy, because he found out that the connection between mind and body is exactly in the tensions. He saw that if we cannot live out certain feelings we tense up to survive. And if we don’t get that tension to relax or allow ourselves to live out  our emotions, we are contracted in what he called a “muscular armor”. The muscular armor prevents the body from moving freely and limits the way we live our life. “ - Kristoffer Glavind Kjær
