La musique de la douleur
-
- Préface : Louis Schwizgebel
Physiothérapeute, musicienne et analyste jungienne, Aude Hauser-Mottier soigne tout particulièrement la dystonie de fonction, un blocage incontrôlable acquis lors de l’exécution de mouvements rapides. Le dysfonctionnement dont souffre l’artiste n’est jamais uniquement d’origine physique, il est aussi psychique et se trouve exacerbé par un stress de performance. Raison pour laquelle Aude Hauser-Mottier traite ses patients par une rééducation physique combinée à une forme d’analyse fondée sur l’interprétation des rêves.
Ce recueil raconte de manière simple et vivante sept cas cliniques : on y rencontre un violoncelliste rongé par la culpabilité, un pianiste hanté par des rêves de pianos, une galeriste qui rend vie et sens à son métier, une ancienne cantatrice désorientée qui entreprend de littéralement réorchestrer son existence…

Presentation
Herself a musician, Aude Hauser-Mottier is a physiotherapist: she notably heals functional dystonia, a wrong automatic reflex acquired by the repetition of a movement. But the dysfunction suffered by the artist never has a physical origin: it always has a psychological origine. That’s why Aude Hauser-Mottier also pratices with her patients a form analysis based on the interpretation of dreams.
The healing of seven patients is told in this collection: we meet with a cellist eaten up by guilt, a woman who finds out the origins of her birth, a young guitarist who blossoms when he leaves the Conservatory, a gallery owner who restores the worth of her profession, a former opera singer who litteraly learns to put her life in order…
Through these seven cases, we notice that the absence of music, or the pain felt practicing music, are only signs of another type of pain. As did the patients when they first arrived to the practice, to be cured for what they erroneously believed a mechanical problem.
Aude Hauser-Mottier practices physiotherapy in Geneva and cures great concert artists as well as non-musicians.
