Zero Balancing (ZB) is an advanced studies program for anyone with a bodywork or healthcare practice. It is a hands-on body/mind therapy that is easy to incorporate into other body/mind and touch systems, including massage, acupuncture, nursing, chiropractic, physical therapy, psychotherapy and craniosacral therapy.
Each person who studies Zero Balancing will use it slightly differently depending on the scope of practice of his or her usual practice. The study of Zero Balancing benefits practitioners through the enhancement of all skills involving touch: skills for assessment as well as treatment. In addition, practitioners gain an additional tool with which to help their clients. Those who study ZB can use what they learn to enhance their current modality or as a stand-alone protocol.
The complete Core Zero Balancing curriculum is a 50 hour program taught in two 4-day segments, separated by a period of practical experience. Core Zero Balancing I, which alone has immediate clinical application, teaches all pertinent theory and principles of Zero Balancing, how to use the techniques effectively, and the basic Zero Balancing protocol. Core Zero Balancing II includes anatomy review with increased detail, refinement of palpation skills for identifying deeply held tensions, and teaches additional fulcrums for more in-depth rebalancing of the client. Upon completing Core Zero Balancing II, participants will have learned the complete Core ZB Protocol, which is recommended to achieve the full benefits of Zero Balancing sessions. Instructors provide a detailed study guide, clear presentations using visual aids, and demonstrations of Zero Balancing. In lab sessions, students learn through both performing and experiencing Zero Balancing techniques.
“Linda’s understanding of not only body, but mind and spirit, are palpable in her touch, words and presence. As a Zero Balancing Teacher she is clear, engaging and insightful, makes learning very fun, and meets each student with consideration of their own individual learning style. Linda embodies the qualities of non-judgment, acceptance and support and has helped me deeply connect with the source of healing and joy in my core. I’m grateful.”
