Therapeutic Eurythmy
Therapeutic eurythmy is a movement therapy that has been used successfully for over 100 years in many countries. It focuses on speech sounds – vowels and consonants – which are expressed through movements of the limbs or whole body (in standing, sitting, or lying positions). Each sound movement influences processes in the body, bringing them into harmony, activating self-healing forces, and strengthening the functions of individual organs and organ systems. Beneficial changes caused by the therapy can even be perceived by the patient during the exercises themselves.
Therapeutic eurythmy is prescribed by a physician and performed according to an individually designed plan. A specialist may also use it for diagnostic and preventive purposes. Each session lasts 45 minutes (including a rest period). A treatment course typically includes 14–21 sessions, though in cases of chronic illness or child development disorders, the treatment process may be extended.
Therapeutic eurythmy is used for disorders of the cardiovascular system, digestive system, urinary-genital system, musculoskeletal system, and nervous system, as well as for oncological, psychosomatic, and other types of diseases.
At our center, therapeutic eurythmy is led by therapeutic eurythmist Nino Vashakidze. After receiving a degree in psychology and working as a neuropsychologist for 5 years, she completed a full 6-year course in eurythmy and therapeutic eurythmy in Hamburg. As a result, she was awarded an international diploma and the qualification of a therapeutic eurythmist. Nino Vashakidze has extensive practical work experience in clinics in Germany and Switzerland, and has been practicing in Georgia since 1996. Additionally, she regularly participates in international conferences and professional qualification seminars.
