THE POSITIVE IMPACT OF ORIGINAL ART ON YOUR BODY

Standing in front of original art changes you. Your senses sharpen. Your breath deepens. You feel alert, open, and at ease while allowing emotions freedom to express.

Science backs this up. A 2025 King's College London study found that viewing original art in person elicited a distinctive multisystem response compared to reproductions. Across immune, endocrine, and autonomic systems, participants showed heightened engagement combined with stress reduction and selective anit-inflammatory effects, a pattern researchers had not recorded before. It both calmed and excited the body, suggesting cultural experiences promote resilience and wellbeing. This is your body recognizing the energy of something real.

This is the same nervous system shift we work with in manual therapy. Whether through touch or through art, when your body feels at ease, it remembers how to heal.

Ten interior photos of original abstract paintings by Gigi Degerlund on view in Denver private practice.

Coming Soon: Plans for hosting guest artists are in the works, bringing new energy and perspective to the space where you heal.

HEALING ENVIRONMENT, BY DESIGN

This clinic space was designed as a thoughtful healing environment: open and intentional. You'll see original artwork in each room, some of which are Gigi's kinetic layered paintings, each canvas a "living landscape."
