"About Carla Oswald Reed: Unlocking Your Child's Potential

As a passionate practitioner with over 50 years of experience, Carla Oswald Reed has dedicated her life to helping children with brain injuries and special needs reach their full potential. Inspired by the transformative power of the Feldenkrais Method® and the Anat Baniel Method of Neuromovement, Carla has honed her skills to provide the most effective and innovative treatments for her clients.

Carla's journey began in the eighth grade when she discovered her calling to work with children with brain injuries. She pursued her dream by earning a Bachelor of Science degree and a Certificate of Proficiency in Physical Therapy from the University of Pennsylvania School of Allied Medical Professions in 1969. After moving to Arizona and training in the Bobath Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) for Cerebral Palsy, Carla's instincts led her to seek out more effective techniques that would truly unlock the untapped potential in every child.

In 1980, Carla witnessed the transformative power of the Feldenkrais Method® firsthand and trained directly under its founder, Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais, D.Sc. She later discovered the Anat Baniel Method of Neuromovement, which expanded on the Feldenkrais Method to create an approach that harnesses the brain's ability to enhance physical, cognitive, emotional, and creative functionality.
