Raven Sadhaka Seltzer, an integrative therapist and the owner of SelfHealing Solutions, will present Free Yourself from Pain, a weekend workshop from March 15 to 17 at the Center at Westwoods, in Westwood. Seltzer says the workshop is designed for anyone who has numbness or pain in the neck or lower back.

“It’s an opportunity to receive life-changing information on drug-free pain relief and techniques to heal the spine and strengthen the core,” says Seltzer. “We’ll learn ways to jumpstart the healing process during a nurturing weekend of guided, integrative therapies for healing the spine. It’s suitable for anyone in any kind of shape.”

Seltzer says the workshop will also cover such topics as: therapeutic movement for stretching and strengthening; meditation and guided visualizations; nourishment and lifestyle for a healthy spine; and herbal and natural remedies for recovery. “I’ll teach students daily practices and routines to incorporate into their lives and talk about ergonomic evaluation guidelines and desk and chair adaptations for work and driving,” she says.

All participants will receive a free copy of Seltzer’s recently updated book, Get Your Low Back on Track: 30 Days to a Healthier Spine, and her Guided Visualizations for Deep Healing CD. Seltzer notes that students who have Harvard Pilgrim or Blue Cross health insurance receive 10 percent off the cost of the workshop. Registration closes on March 6, and those interested should visit SelfHealingSolutions.com to fill out a registration form.
