The Rubenfeld Synergy Method is a process that uses gentle touch to access a deep integration of the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Listening to your body can bring you to a meeting with your heart, your soul your essence. Your body contains messages and memories and is an entryway to your innate wisdom.

Change happens at many levels at once.
