Ortho-Bionomy helps stimulate the self correcting reflexes of the body, aiding in its healing and re-alignment, by re-educating joints, muscles and nerves.
While the body has its standard way of functioning and maintaining health, things can happen to disrupt that regularity.
Ortho-Bionomy helps reintroduce the body’s natural function or performance, especially when habitual movements or postures have altered or disrupted it.

What happens in an Ortho-Bionomy session?

Ortho-Bionomy employs subtle yet deliberate movements that re-position the body to naturally release stress and pain patterns. A strong focus is placed on the comfort of the individual. No force or manipulation is used.
At the end of the session the practitioner may identify self care exercises for the client to do after and between sessions to continue the releases and to retrain the body in its new patterns.
