The Grinberg Method®: an approach based on the body’s innate ability to learn

We are our body: it holds our uniqueness, our potential, and our lived experience.

Moving away from our natural ability to be a body limits us and makes us repetitive. We learned in the past to respond automatically to certain stimuli, and in doing so, we’ve lost the ability to fully adapt to the reality of the present. These reactions manifest on multiple levels: physical, behavioral, mental, and emotional.
With the Grinberg Method®, we learn to recognize these patterns and stop them — recovering health, lightness, freedom, and the ability to live fully.

Body

The Grinberg Method® is an educational approach based on three key concepts:
  • Body Learning – Learning happens through experience: by learning through the body, we can recognize and deconstruct repetitive or harmful behavioral patterns.
  • Body Attention – Through the language of touch — which does not heal or treat, but teaches — we bring attention back to direct experience and to the body’s capacity to be present and perceptive.
  • Body Work – When we don’t interfere, and allow the body to go through even intense experiences, a natural process of rebalancing and recovery occurs.

— Our core guidelines

We start from the ground up: imagine what our feet can tell us

The feet reflect the body and carry traces of how we walk — not only physically, but through life itself. By observing the feet, it is possible to describe a person’s potential, as well as the limiting patterns they’ve developed.

Even intense, scary, or unpleasant experiences are valuable and can be used

Agreeing to feel fear, shame, deep anger, or to transform pain — without resisting it, judging it, enduring it, or numbing it — isn’t easy.
And yet, by developing this ability, we can return to living fully, instead of being busy avoiding what we feel.

Regardless of the goal, the client’s ability to experience themselves as a body will increase

Body attention is at the core of this work: it’s a natural resource of every living being, who perceives the world through their physical experience.
To stop something, we must first feel how we’re doing it. And to feel it, we need to be in the body.

Even the ability to think is a resource of the body, not just the mind

We often believe thoughts reside in the mind — that uniquely human skill of “talking to ourselves” — but we truly think when imagination, intuition, memory, planning, and understanding are embodied and take place in silence.

— How does it work?

The Grinberg Method® is applied in one-on-one sessions or group settings.

Learning Processes: people turn to a practitioner to address recurring physical symptoms or chronic pain (e.g. gastritis, insomnia, tension), to transform limiting emotional states (anxiety, stress, apathy), or to develop personal qualities (courage, adaptability) and achieve goals (a new job, a life change).
These sessions, held weekly or in intensive formats, guide people — using touch and foot analysis — to stop what is preventing them from accessing the resources they need to achieve their goals.

Recovery Processes: in cases of surgeries, accidents, or severe chronic conditions, the approach remains educational but focuses more specifically on the symptom. It supports the body’s natural recovery process by eliminating interference (tension, stiffness, fixed posture, numbness, etc.).

Workshops and Group Classes (e.g. Body Attention exercises or sMove!): these group sessions — whether one-off or ongoing — focus on specific themes (ranging from breath, willpower, and trust to decision-making, trauma recovery, and more).
Through exercises, participants increase their energy and body awareness, while interrupting limiting patterns.
