*Good health is a natural human state |
BEST, Bio-Energetic System Therapy is created by Eugene Zuev, a famous
Russian holistic practitioner. It is a highly effective treatment, based on the integration of
Russian traditional classic therapeutic massage, bio-energetic stretching, stereometric
massage, bio-energetic pain effect massage, as well as therapeutic touch, reflexology,
acupressure and polarity therapy.
 | Bio-energetic stretching can be manual passive and self stretching, dynamic longitudinal, diagonal, rotatory and therapist-assisted somersault, in horizontal and vertical position. Stretching is effective in overcoming limitations of movements as in spasticity in cerebral palsy. The goal of stretching is elongation of soft tissue in order to cause relaxation, to increase a full range of motion and flexibility, to reduce psycho-emotional tension, to improve the circulation and to enhance the child’s overall healing by activating the intrinsic restorative capacity of organism. |
| Stereometric massage is the transformation of the flat (plane) geometric figures on the human body in the stereometric structures by creating high tension of bio-energetic field in the area of impact. The stereometric massage includes therapeutic touch, acupressure, as well as gliding, friction, suggestion and polarity therapy. It helps to improve child’s overall health through energy and motivation, making him/her a partner in a healing process. |
| Bio-energetic pain effect massage as a method of neuromuscular therapy enhanced with acupressure and polarity therapy actively involves the child in a healing process through stimulating hyperirritable painful trigger points, causing rotations, active joint movements, muscle activity, allowing for better mobility. |
| Therapeutic touch is a method which involves techniques from both Western and Eastern origins. Its purpose is to reduce stress on muscles and internal organs, to induce complete mental and physical relaxation, to regenerate and rejuvenate the entire body. Human contact is most important particularly for this treatment method. The practitioner is not expected to serve as the patient’s personal psychologist or counselor, but definitely should have an intuition, an instinct for what is right for the patient and an understanding of human nature in order to apply a therapeutic healing touch. When giving such a stress-reducing, rejuvenating treatment, the practitioner’s hands are often much better than any sophisticated device. |
| Reflexology (reflex massage) is a method which stems from the Chinese and Native American medical traditions. This method allows the practitioners to influence internal organs by stimulating particular reflexogenous zones on the surface of the body. Each internal organ is linked by reflex pathways with certain reflex zones and points on the body, in the hands and feet. Activating these links through reflexology helps to relieve stress, tension and blockage, to normalize body functions, to diminish pain, and to facilitate better circulation of blood to an affected area. |
| Acupressure is a method originated with the Chinese and Japanese medical practice of acupuncture. It is like acupuncture but instead of using needles it uses pressure of the fingers, stimulating or sedating acupoints. The goal of acupressure is to regulate life force energy – chi, which means restoration of complete physiological and psychological harmony, relaxation of muscles, improvement of circulation of blood and lymph, relieving pain, and generation of the natural recuperative powers of the body. |
| Polarity therapy is a method developed by Randolph Stone using massage manipulations, exercise and thinking practices to balance the body both physically and energetically, to obtain deep healing relaxation and to restore body functions. |
BEST gives practical positive results, balancing physical, mental and emotional condition and represents a fascinating technique of correcting cerebral palsy and developmental delay.
