Rosen Method Bodywork is effective in enhancing our body sense. Because Rosen Method Bodywork enhances our awareness of the state of our body, it activates the body's own resources for self-monitoring and self-regulation. As people come to notice more about themselves, all the body systems can begin to function more effectively and harmoniously resulting in improvements in well-being, pain reduction, and general health.
These and other benefits were found in the following research studies.
Out of a sample of 53 Swedish RMB (Rosen Method Bodywork) clients, 48 described enhanced physical health, body awareness, reduction in depressed feelings, anxiety and stress, support for personal growth, and ability to self-initiate life changes as a result of RMB.
People who participated in an employee wellness program in California that included RMB along with diet and exercise showed significant reductions in blood pressure, body weight and body fat and an increase in perceived quality of life
RMB was effective in a significant reduction of long-term chronic pain and reduced intake of pain medication in this case study report from Denmark.
In a sample of 34 health married couples in Utah, aged 20 to 39 years, 15 minutes per day of Rosen Method listening touch (compared to a behavioral intervention control group) increased oxytocin and decreased stress hormones in both males and females, and also reduced blood pressure in males compared to the control group.
