Listen to the Whispers of Your Kidneys through Rubenfeld Synergy
Listen to the Whispers of Your Kidneys through Rubenfeld Synergy. The Body is a Reliable Source of Information.
Have you listen lately to the whispers of your kidneys? What would it say?
In traditional Chinese Medicine, emotions and physical health are intimately connected. The Kidneys house the emotion of Fear, either as a sudden fright or a chronic state of anxiety.
Have you experienced fear in your body? Do you know what it feels like? Humans freeze when overwhelming, life-threatening situations overrides any viable possibility of fighting or fleeing.
Your body is a reliable source of information if you listen to it. Do you know how to listen? When your body is in pain, it sends messages to us. Unless we know how to decode and understand these messages, our body may become disabled with dis-ease. You will learn and be guided on how to listen to the whispers of your body through the Rubenfeld Synergy Method.
How would Rubenfeld Synergy help me understand my body’s messages? Experiencing Rubenfeld listening touch offers a powerful tool to access and acknowledge feelings, and images that have been hidden in the body for years, creating tension, pain, and distorted perceptions. Repressed tears, anger, grief, and much else may be re-experienced and released during a session, offering freedom for the new ways of being. Living through listening to your body is like living in another world.
Are you aware of fear in your life? Have you experienced kidney stones, which are tears of emotion? What would those kidney stones reveal about your life? What stops you from learning your body’s story?

We Have A Choice - Heal Through Rubenfeld Synergy
With each day, we have this choice: we can build walls, block ourselves from the light, and suffer a dampness in the soul. Or we can live barely, shine on through, and suffer the nicks of erosion for living in the open.
Most of us live behind walls that were started by others and finished by ourselves. Very often, we fear each other without reason - the wall builders and those who shine on through. But it really comes down to how to make it through life - safely or fully. What I've learned is that the more I risk being who I am - like a sun daring to shine - the thinner the walls need to be outside of me.
As we move through life, there were times when walls were necessary, but more often we can protect ourselves by being who we are. Neither hiding nor revealing ourselves will prevent our share of pain we hold in our body but through Rubenfeld Synergy you will learn how to be comfortable and feel safe on who you truly are.
Your body holds your life story. Through Rubenfeld Synergy, you will learn how to listen to the wisdom of your body and become aware of what and how many walls you hold in your life. With each session, Rubenfeld Synergy helps you to become aware of those walls, habitual patterns and tensions and decode their messages empowering you to make concrete improvements in your daily life and relationships. The uniqueness of Rubenfeld Synergy lies in the use of talk and touch together. Touch heightens awareness, both emotionally and physically, and allows you to explore levels that are difficult to access through talk alone.

Why the Rubenfeld Synergy Method® is Not Massage
Why the Rubenfeld Synergy Method® is Not Massage
The Rubenfeld Synergy Method® (RSM) is not a form of massage therapy. It differs from massage in goals, philosophy, and techniques or method.
Different Goals. The overall goal of Rubenfeld Synergy is psychophysical re-education. RSM assists clients in exploring problems they are experiencing in any area of their functioning, in developing greater awareness on all levels, and in making more satisfactory choices in their way of being. The goals of massage are much more narrow: to enhance the functioning of joints and muscles, to improve circulation and muscle tone, and to relieve mental and physical fatigue.
Different Philosophy. Rubenfeld Synergists see the individual as a whole being with mind, body, emotions, and spirit interrelated and interactive, capable of self-healing, self-regulations, growth, and change. The responsibility for growth and change rests with the client. In contrast, the massage client is completely passive, with the massage therapist responsible for producing results and the focus is on changes in the physical body.
Different Techniques. Rubenfeld Synergy uses gentle, non-intrusive touch with fully clothed clients. Rubenfeld Synergists “listen” with their hands and use intentional touch, movement and talk throughout the session. They frequently use metaphor, imaging, and humor in verbal interactions. As a client identifies an area of concern in his/her life, the Synergist suggests and “experiment” in that moment that is designed to provide an opportunity to re-experience some personal issue or event from a new perspective. This can lead to a new behavior sequence or a new view of an earlier experience.
In specific contrast to massage, the Rubenfeld Synergy client is always fully clothed. RSM uses none of the tools of massage, not hot or cold packs, nor oils or hydrotherapy or aromatherapy, nor any of the techniques such as stroking or kneading or tapping. RSM does not even use its light touch for therapeutic purposes, but only to heighten the client’s awareness. RSM never uses deep tissue manipulation.
In summary, both the purpose and the technique of Rubenfeld Synergy differ so greatly from those of massage, that RSM can not, in any way, be considered a form of massage nor should it come under the regulations that govern massage.

RUBENFELD SYNERGY METHOD® - Can We Talk - What Your Body Would Say If It Could Speak
The Rubenfeld Synergy Method®, “What‟s that?‟”, wondered Kathy C.* when she first met a “Rubenfeld Synergist” at a women‟s workshop. The name may have sounded unfamiliar, perhaps even a little intimidating. But as most people who try the Rubenfeld Synergy Method® soon find out, this unique talk/touch method is anything but complicated or daunting. In fact, it‟s arguably one of today‟s most gentle and effective ways of relieving stress, anxiety, aches, and pains in today‟s society — which misconstrues “no pain” with “no gain”.
Here is what Kathy* had to say when she finally decided to give the Rubenfeld Synergy Method® a try: “For about a week, I was experiencing aches in my shoulders that I thought were just sore muscles from sleeping badly. But they persisted for several days even after taking ibuprofen. So, I figured...why not give Rubenfeld Synergy a try. I had no idea what to expect. But when I got there, the synergist‟s office was very comfortable. She put me at ease on a massage-type table, and right away I started to feel more relaxed. I was surprised when she started my session by putting her hands gently on my feet. She asked permission each time she switched positions to different body parts and I agreed. As she touched each area gently, she asked me questions about how I was feeling and what I was experiencing. It didn‟t even occur to me that she hadn‟t touched my shoulders at all. But it didn‟t matter. My shoulders started to relax as I found myself telling her about the things that I‟d been „shouldering‟ in my life. I had no idea I would be discussing this, but it was true...I‟d been feeling overwhelmed and off balance at work and in my relationships; and it felt like I was carrying the “mother load” around with me. By the time we were done, I had a strange urge to start moving my body like I used to when I had more free time to go dancing. So that‟s what I did later that evening! The shoulder aches were totally gone. No drugs, no physical therapy, no psychiatric counseling. I didn‟t need to change my mattress or quit my job. I just understood that I absolutely had to make more free time for me. I can‟t believe how one session made such a huge difference! I don‟t really know how it works, but it does.”
The Rubenfeld Synergy Method® combines an effective systematic use of touch and talk to allow the body to speak for itself. It starts with the premise that the body already knows what it want and needs. Rubenfeld Synergy recognizes that the mind and body are connected and together they contain tremendous insights. A trained Rubenfeld Synergist facilitates the body‟s ability to open up, “explain itself” and reveal the hidden sources of discomfort as well as the solutions to ease, comfort and wellness. Without drugs or invasive procedures, Rubenfeld Synergy offers a safe, gentle effective way to approach healing and overall wellbeing. It activates the body‟s own internal wisdom.
