Hello there
Hi, I’m Deanna.
I became an athletic therapist in 1995, and for years my strong hands did the work. Then, in 2000, in the middle of the worst anxiety attack of my life, I pressed my hand into my abdomen — and everything began to change.
That moment grew into Fluid Isometrics™, and then into Block Therapy™: a simple practice that lets you do for your own body what I used to do in the treatment room. Teaching people to care for themselves is the work I love most.
What Deanna teaches
Block Therapy: bodywork, exercise and meditation in one.
Fascia is the connective tissue that links the whole body, head to toe. When it’s compressed, we feel it — in how we move, how we stand and how we breathe. Block Therapy is Deanna’s self-care practice for giving that tissue room again.
The block
A handcrafted cedar block called the Block Buddy™. Simple, sturdy and made to be used at home.
Your body weight
You lie over the block and let your own weight apply slow, steady pressure. No forcing, no equipment to learn.
Your breath
Deep diaphragmatic breathing is the engine of the practice, bringing blood and oxygen back to tissue that has been compressed.
The new book
Something new is on its way.
Deanna’s next book is in the works. The title, the cover and the release date are still under wraps — and the waitlist will hear all three first.
