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.

We have noticed in prior episodes that exercises for the pelvis, breathing, heart and lungs improve our head and neck posture and give us a sense of a relaxed jaw. In this episode we look more closely at the muscles of the neck. We begin with an embodiment of where the cranium sits on top of the spine and get a sense of nodding our head moving the occipital condyles and rocking back and forth on the sit bones. We do exercises for our SCM (sternocleidomastoid muscle), Trapezius and Scalenes. Lastly, we look at the movement of the trachea with neck flexion and extension. These exercises in series create an incredible relaxation in the neck and shoulders and an openness across the chest. Enjoy this practice and share your experience and images in the comments!
