Ilana Nachoum Physical Therapist, Feldenkrais Teacher, Svetlana Masgutova Method Associate, certified: Anat Baniel Method for Children. 

415-606-6981                                       1 Blackfield Dr  Tiburon CA 94920        Email: isragoddess7@gmail.com         ( in the Cove shopping center )

With over 30 years experience as a movement therapist, my passion is working with infants and children with sensory motor challenges, and helping adults reclaim their natural ability to move with confidence, grace and ease.  Reflex patterns are the blueprints of our brain’s development and they are impacted by a challenged pregnancy or delivery, emotional or physical trauma, genetic disorder, negative impact of immunization, and adoption issues. These integrative techniques also help those with developmental delay, traumatic childbirth and injury, cerebral palsy, Autism, ADD and ADHD. With compassion and expertise, I guide the body in rediscovering its natural movement and freedom, and help to heal the emotional and physical pain associated with physical limitation. Some insurance accepted.
