אדם לייטון - מחשבות על מחשבות (ורגשות, ותחושות...)

Or  The Surprising Parallels Between Psychotherapy and Physical Therapy I extend sincere gratitude to Dr. Arnon Rolnick for his valuable contributions to this post, and to my physiotherapist Ron Maimon and his excellent team, for not only facilitating my physical healing but also providing the inspirational spark for these insights.   As I lay on the physiotherapy treatment bed, the therapist working on my neck explained that he doesn't aim to directly 'repair' people, but rather supports the natural healing processes of the body. He mentioned that while the slipped discs were a factor, the root issue was the broader patterns of physical rigidity and lack of fluid movement perpetuating my pain and dysfunction. His words struck a chord with me as a psychotherapist, making me reflect on the many parallels between our two fields. In exploring the worlds of psychotherapy and physical therapy, one begins to notice some striking similarities between these two healing modalities.
