You might have heard about the healing power of movement-based therapies - it's a real thing. Research shows that movement-based therapies can greatly improve your mental health and quality of life, as well as help you become more self-aware and communicative.

Movement-Based Therapies are a proven form of therapy that improves peoples social, emotional, and physical health through movement. In movement-based therapies, a trained therapist helps create a safe space for you to express yourself through movement. In this form of therapy, dance and movement can help you communicate what is otherwise difficult to say in words.
