The GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Methods
were created by Juliu Horvath as a method of rehabilitating
serious injuries from his dance career. Its roots in
rehabilitation makes GYROTONIC® exercise accessible to
everyone from children to elderly, from dancers to athletes,
and from pre-postpartum to post surgery clients.
GYROTONIC® principles embrace key elements also found
in yoga, dance, swimming and martial arts. The practice
lengthens and strengthens the ligaments and tendons while
providing cardio and weight training, allowing the body to
feel strong yet supple at all times.

“Testimonial To Edie Monaghan, BSW, LMT
Edie Monaghan is far and away the most healing body
therapist from whom I have received treatment.
After decades of living with back pain, I now once again
live pain free as a result of her treatment.
Edie really listens to the specific feelings in your body
and adapts each session to your needs that day. After a
session my body feels taller and lighter.
Edie truly cares about her patients and her concern and
care are integral to healing.
I have been to many body therapists over my 74 years
and I am sincere when I say Edie Monaghan is the most
skilled healer I have encountered.
I encourage everyone to work with Edie for a minimum
of 4 sessions and experience how much more relaxed
and comfortable you can feel in your own body.”

Edie Ruth Monaghan, BSW, LMT. A long time student of
holistic dynamics, with over 30 years in the healing arts, I
facilitate deeper levels of self-awareness and self care.
I came to the healing arts through my social work
profession recognizing people needed the sense of a healthy
touch. Being introduced to yoga and oriental based
therapies at the age of 18 opened a path of consciousness
which resulted in a life-long commitment to personal growth
and healing arts and then to extend the same to others. I
continue to pursue educational ventures with enthusiasm
and using my own resources. I am certified in Visionary
Craniosacral Work®; Neuromuscular Therapy®; and
One Brain/Stress Defusion®.
Beginning in 1985, my training as a Zen Shiatsu practitioner
facilitated deep meditative practices and holistic healing. In
1991 I completed my training at Florida School of Massage.
Then I moved to Vero Beach to become a staff therapist at
the Academy of Healing Arts.
Establishing my own place of business, Essential Healing
Therapy, Inc., in 1998 to present time has brought me the
joy of being an entrepreneur -- as being self employed is
an act of great courage. I have served the international
clientèle of Vero Beach with great vigor and enthusiasm
which resulted in a reputation known within the
community as one who could help relieve pain and
restore ease.
The disciplined practice resulted in the need to expand my
offerings into movement therapies. I continued with my
yoga training in Hatha and Ashtanga styles. Due to a knee
injury I was drawn to healing joint pain with Pilates
exercise therapy using equipment. After using my own
resources, commuting every 3 months to Miami for an
18 month period, and a daily routine at the local studio,
I completed the Core Dynamics program in Miami, FL
in 2006.
While in Pilates training, I discovered GYROKINESIS®
floor work and became certified in GYROKINESIS® in
2007 in Miami with Juliu Horvath, the founder of this
system. Continuing my fascination I certified in the
GYROTONIC® PULLEY TOWER in 2011 and certified
in GYROTONER® in 2014.

Modalities of Somatic Therapy
Integrated Healing Massage using
intuition, intelligence, and education, your
personalized session includes selected modalities,
unwinding, and aromatherapy. Resulting in a sense
of body-mind integration.
*Certification in this modality equals education,
30+ years experience and continued investment.
*Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT)
Bodywork designed to relieve chronic and acute
symptoms of pain from accidents, injuries, and
postural imbalances by addressing trigger points,
fascial restrictions, tension in muscles, and postural
compensation patterns.
*Structural Energetic Therapy (SET)
Assessment and application of core distortion release
through cranial structural application followed by
protocols of myofascial release designed to unwind
the distortion through the body resulting in relief of
pain, alignment, and greater athletic ability.
*Shiatsu/Acupressure
Pressure is applied to tsubos (points on the
acupuncture meridian) to unblock energetic pathways
and balancing the system. Additionally, assisted
stretching and anchoring the joints to increase the
range of motion is applied.
*Visionary Craniosacral Work®
Craniosacral therapy is applied to the bones of the
cranium, the spine and overall skeletal system
primarily to induce a deep relaxation. By holding
the body in just the right way, a release of
restrictions allows the nervous system to
re-calibrate and provide resolution. Visionary refers
to use of all channels of perception by both receiver
and giver, resulting in an energetic reading as well.
*Original Manual Lymphatic Drainage
Vodder® Lymph Drainage is a light touch,
non-invasive rhythmic technique to transfer lymph
through the light fibrous lymph vessels to the lymph
nodes for processing. This technique helps to
encourage stagnant fluid in the Skin and other areas
of the body to be actively moved.
*Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage®
Pilates performed on equipment designed for alignment
and connection will result in lengthened and
strengthened muscles and joints. It benefits the spine
and joints by relieving weak and overstretched muscles.
This is a delight that needs to be experienced.
Each session is customized to the individual, duo, or
small group on a day to day basis. Clear, concise, and
focused instruction is implemented resulting in a
multidimensional experience helping you to accomplish
your postural alignment and toning goals.
The 8 movement principles incorporated are:
1.
Whole body awareness 2. Breathing
3. Balanced Muscle Use and Development
4. Concentration 5. Control 6. Organized to move
7. Precision 8. Rhythm
All of the above combined over the long term will result in
strength, mobility, pain relief, and enhanced quality of
mind body connection.
All classes are apparatus based and contain some mat
exercises to emphasize principles and execute specific
developmental steps to apply on the apparatus.
It consists in modules of exercises based upon the concept
of multi directional and spherical movement by using a
unique pulley and weights system that enable complete
freedom of movement with a three-dimensional approach.
GYROTONIC® exercise has an emphasis on rhythm,
breath, and flowing movement, all done in natural, gentle
way with no tension. This allows postural re-education
both preventive and rehabilitative offering to alleviate,
prevent and correct different body trouble among
them: Back pain, headaches, sciatica, hernia, scoliosis,
stress, stiffness…
GYROTONIC® method creates a powerful
three-dimensional exercise system that promotes strength,
flexibility and stability by encouraging oppositional
movement and spirals found within the body. The idea of
spiraling is one of the core elements to GYROTONIC®
exercise; it allows for the limbs to open and create more
space in our joints.
GYROTONIC® methodology asserts itself all around the
world as one of the best techniques of physical
rehabilitation, re-establishing structural and functional
well-being.
Therefore the benefits are:
•
Improve posture, general fitness, strength, and control
•
Regenerating nervous system
•
Neuro-muscular coordination
•
Improvement of blood and lymphatic circulation
•
Spine strong and supple
•
Healthy and mobile joints
An important component of GYROTONIC® methodology
is the GYROKINESIS® method. GYROKINESIS®
movement is an active yoga class that offers similar benefits
also derived from Kundalini Yoga, ballet, swimming
gymnastics, acupressure and Tai-chi. The GYROKINESIS®
method is yet another Juliu Horvath’s brilliant exercise
creations.
GYROKINESIS® exercise upholds the same principles of
GYROTONIC® method, but does so without the use of
equipment. A GYROKINESIS® class begins with an
energizing self-massage to awaken the body and senses.
The fluid movements mobilize the joints while
simultaneously stretching and strengthening the body.
The effect of GYROKINESIS® exercise is an increased
range of motion and coordination, gently working the
joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulation
exercises. Postures are smoothly and harmoniously
connected through the use of breath. Which make
exercises appear and feel more like a dance than
Traditional yoga. The corresponding breathing patterns
in every movement stimulate the nervous system, open
up the energy pathways and oxygenate the blood.
