Dynamic Tension Practices

Dynamic tension

While "business-as-usual" may seem all but lost in this climate, you can take comfort in knowing that both doctors are still and will remain seeing patients in the office 3 days a week. Additionally, as Illinois' shelter-in-place order has been extended, The Balancing Center continues to make resilient strides in servicing patients on a digital front.

These exercises activate an experience of connection, which provide leverage for your body to spring into action and also experience calm. They should be done every morning, before exercise and before a night's rest.

As you do these practices, notice the ease of breathing and the subtle release of tension. The nervous system recognizes that the body is laying down and no longer needs to hold on to the stress and tension that it has been responding to throughout the day.

Dr. Daniel Fedeli Daniel J. Fedeli, DC, PC, established The Balancing Center in 1987 to meet the increasing demand for alternative healthcare in Chicago and offer access to a different perspective on health and wellness. He believes in techniques that re-establish balance in order to promote the incredibly powerful resources that lie within the human body. His noninvasive techniques work with the body, optimizing performance and function, in order to alleviate pain and stress. Dr. Fedeli combines the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association (NUCCA) method with a wide array of forward-thinking techniques designed to release physical holding patterns, and ease the effect of traumas, memories, and emotions on the body’s critical functions. Carefully selected treatments, such as energy synchronization, neuro-emotional clearing, stabilizing exercise, and movement therapies are used in conjunction with spinal adjustments to remove factors adversely affecting the body’s ability to restore and maintain long-term stability.
