FUNCTIONAL
INTEGRATION®
BODYWORK

Functional Integration® lessons are flexible in their approach, determined by a persons needs. You may lie comfortably on a table designed specifically for the work, or do some of the lesson sitting or standing. As needed, I may also use various props to support your comfort, to make certain movements easier, or to clarify a movement.

Each Functional Integration® lesson relates to a desire, intention, or need of the individual. The learning process is carried out without the use of any invasive or forceful procedure. Through rapport and respect for your abilities, qualities, and integrity. A session is tailored to an environment in which the individual can learn in safety and comfort.

The lesson is developed, specifically for you, custom-tailored to the unique circumstances of that particular person, at that particular moment. Thus, a person learns how to reorganize their actions in new and more effective ways through the experience of comfort, enjoyment, and ease of movement.

TESTIMONIALS

"Every class I take of yours relieves enormous physical pain and has enabled greater self use." - Susan, NYC

"You are such a genius, I have not experienced your teaching style before with anyone else and your voice also really helps me connect to my body! Now I understand why you said be open to what emerges." - Rachel, LA

"I really enjoyed your guidance too. Once connected to my body, it was like every movement had their explanations, their pros and contras, the balance of the weight was like balancing colors in my mind. Like making a composition. The more I’m growing, the more I feel that things are about balance." - Estelle, Sweden

"What I sensed even the days after our private lesson was the back heart space as support as well (of the collar bones — like the 'wings' and the support from the back as well helps to allow the collar bones to float and the heart to be open and feeling safe at the same time). Thank you for this embodiment and learning journey." - Stephanie, Switzerland

"I have had the great privilege of working with Niki in an embodiment based movement practice for awhile now. She has been very helpful working with my limitations and helping support me in expanding my range of motion among other things. As an acupuncturist, I feel such an importance in paying attention to a holistic way of being." - Care, UK

"Working with Niki in private somatic lessons has changed me immensely, and yet at the same time has brought me back to a sense of myself I am relearning to befriend. In this I’m learning that I’m going to have to yearn for this relearn for as long as I’m here and I might as well do it with progression in this process as intention. Thank you again for guidance." - Reese, NYC
