Radix® is a powerful form of personal development work and body psychotherapy that was originally developed by Dr. Charles Kelley, based upon the work of Wilhelm Reich. It is an approach to personal growth and healing that is:

	holistic ~ based on the principles of mind-body unity
	body-centered ~ working directly with the body through movement and attention to breath, body sensation and awareness, energy flow and other non-verbal as well as verbal interaction
	experiential ~ 'here and now' engaging in your process
	client centered ~ based on the unique needs of each client

The term "radix" -comes from the Latin word meaning "root" or "source," referring to that force which gives rise to all movement, feeling and growth in a person and in life. It is the life force...chi...prana...that unites body, mind, emotions and spirit.

(ref. sagepub.com). The Radix Institute wrote a chapter for this publication on Radix theory and therapy.
