THE FIELD CENTER for Children's Integrated Development

Sheryl Field, the Executive Director, is a certified Feldenkrais practitioner and teacher with more than 20 years of full-time clinical experience using Functional Integration™ to improve the functioning of children with motor disorders.

Sheryl trained with Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais in Israel and in the United States. She is one of the few Feldenkrais practitioners in the world who has extended the method to working with infants and children.

During her 20 years of experience using the Feldenkrais Method of Functional Integration™, Sheryl has observed much greater improvement in children with motor disorders than is currently reported with other therapies. She has recently submitted a research proposal to the National Institutes of Health to test the efficacy of the Feldenkrais Method scientifically.

"Sheryl Field, whom I recommend unequivocally, has given Feldenkrais lessons over a period of time to my grandson who has cerebral palsy. I attribute his remarkable progress in large part to the work that Sheryl has done with him. I regret that so many children who have cerebral palsy do not have the opportunity to benefit from what Sheryl has to offer. She is one of the most outstanding teachers I have ever known."
