Psychotonik Glaser - zur Anwendung eines atem- und leibtherapeutischen Verfahrens in der Psychosomatik

Journal/Book: Ärztezeitschrift für Naturheilverfahren. 1995; 36/3: 224-226.

Abstract: The importance of regulative approaches in modern psychosomatically orientated medical therapy is increasing. Therapeutic intervention in this sense concentrates on the regulation of vegetative and motor behaviour patterns in conjunction with the expressive behaviour of the individual patient. The following contribution introduces a respiratory ad physiotherapeutic method, Psychotonik Glaser. It functions onthe basis of the regulative interconnections between breathing, muscle tonus and psychic state. The method is biult aroud a theoretically well-founded and empirically supported "Sensory Model of Normal Tonus" (Glaser, 1993) and has broadened the range of potential therapeutic applications in cases of psychosomatic disturbance by considerable margin. The applications and confirmability of the method are discussed.
