History of Pulsing
Honouring the Lineage
Pulsing was created in the late 1970s by Curtis Turchin, a bodywork practitioner from the USA. Rooted in Reichian bioenergetic principles, Pulsing works with the body’s natural rhythms to support relaxation, release, and integration.
In 1978, he gave a demonstration of Pulsing at the Open Centre in London, introducing this gentle, rhythmic approach to bodywork to a wider audience, including Silke Ziehl and Guy Gladstone. Both went on to train with Curtis Turchin the following year. They later further developed the work and began offering their own Pulsing trainings, preserving the integrity, simplicity, and depth of the original practice.
Richard Lawton undertook his basic Pulsing training with Guy Gladstone and later completed his Master training with Silke Ziehl. For many years, he assisted Guy Gladstone on his trainings, deepening his understanding of both the technical and relational aspects of the work. When Guy Gladstone retired, he entrusted the Pulsing training programme to Richard Lawton, placing the continuation of this lineage in his hands.
I have trained directly from Richard Lawton, learning within this established lineage and benefiting from his many years of experience, depth of practice, and close connection to the original teachers. My work and teaching are grounded in this transmission, honouring the principles, rhythm, and integrity of Pulsing as it has been passed down.
