How can we gently alleviate chronic or acute pain? Can we prevent repetitive motion injuries? What about posture? Many interpreters are seated for prolonged periods of time - whether during travel, at their workstations, or within certain job environments. This webinar offers an exciting exploration of somatic movements tailored to be performed independently, whether seated or standing. Through these practices, interpreters can proactively enhance their well-being, ensuring longevity and effectiveness in their profession.
