Welcome to the Franklin Method Fellowship! This is a video podcast hosted by physical therapists Solange Ross and Debora Chasse. In this podcast we share our passion for the Franklin Method and how we use it in daily life, all forms of exercise, and integrate it into our physical therapy practices. You will find movement practices to help you connect to your body to improve the way you move and feel. The Franklin Method is a therapeutic approach which uses imagery in daily movement and exercise. In the Franklin Method we use imagery to improve the ability to be present in our body, release tension, and become more efficient in our movement. This helps improve balance, flexibility, strength, coordination, posture, and alignment. Our experience shows that many people notice a shift in their mood and a reduction in pain. All of the exercises are functional and look at everyday movements such as walking, bending, breathing, reaching, carrying, and posture to name a few. The exercises are appropriate for all fitness levels. If you are just beginning an exercise program, make sure to consult with your doctor. The practices in this podcast are not intended to be medical advice.

In episode 17 we share a gentle, whole-body practice to aid in recovery from abdominal surgery. This is something that you can begin early on to help you feel more comfortable. We begin introducing light touch above and below, or to the right and left of the scar (depending on your incision) to approximate the scar. We show techniques to help with the lymphatic system and to improve lymph drainage. Mobility of the abdominal wall and organs is important for the healing process. We take a look at the abdominal organs and gently massage to improve mobility. We look at breathing and how breathing influences the abdominal organs. Lastly, we use pelvic mobility to mobilize the abdominal wall. We hope you enjoy the practice and wish you the best in your healing. Please let us know how you benefitted from these exercises in the comments.
