Práticas de cuidado: relações entre a qualidade tônica da linha superficial posterior e a organização corporal

Abstract

This survey aims to identify the quality of the tonic action of the Posterior Superficial Line, particularly the back muscles, in caregiving actions, reflecting about the reverberations of muscle tone in my body organization. The methodological perspective employed in this study is Autoethnography, known as a self-body mapping, as a tracking of my sensitivities, as heightened perceptions, and as an identification of particularities in my corporeality. Additionally, this study strongly quotes the books Conscious Spontaneity: Developing the Feldenkrais Method by Ruthy Alon and Anatomy Trains: Myofascial Meridians for Manual and Movement Therapists by Thomas Myers. These authors collaborate for a deeper understanding of an integrated and connected body. Therefore, this survey allowed me to find different muscular tonic equalizations in my body, enabling me to reorganize myself corporally and broaden my listening, impacting as well my daily self-care.
