Stretch into relaxation and almost casually leave stress-related headaches and back pain behind? This works with Zilgrei.
Breath and movement combined in a new way
The artificial word Zilgrei is made up of the first letters of the names of the founders: The patient Zillo and her chiropractor Greissing came up with the idea of using breathing specifically for healing movements of the spine. The breathing cycle they developed consists of four phases: 1. breathe in, 2. hold your breath for five seconds, 3. breathe out, 4. hold your breath for five seconds.
The yoga principle – made easy
The principle of combining movement with special breathing is known from yoga . The advantage of Zilgrei: It can be learned much faster. In addition, Zilgrei does not require any effort, because the practitioner always goes up to the natural movement limit of his body. For example, one of the basic exercises is to turn your head from left to right while sitting, breathing according to the special cycle.
Neck pain vanishes into thin air
For performance-oriented athletes, Zilgrei may sound like a fairy tale. But, as with all alternative healing modalities, it comes down to trying. In any case, the two inventors of the method can point to great successes: some pain patients are said to have become pain-free with Zilgrei, while the symptoms of many others were significantly alleviated. Beginner courses at the adult education center cost around 120 euros. Addresses of Zilgrei therapists can be found online at zilgrei.com.
