PhDr. Petr Zahradník, Ph.D.
Physiotherapist
“The greatest teachers of us adults are children, and especially little babies, who are the embodiment of perfection and innocence. And in addition, they show us in all their purity how essential communication through energies is.”
About Petr:
Petr bases his approach on the principles of the functioning of the human body and the influence of energies on the body, mainly coming from our mind. Petr worked both in facilities with a psychosomatic focus and with colleagues who learned from the best.
