Ortho-Bionomy® was developed by Arthur Pauls, a British osteopath and Judo instructor. The goal of the technique is to help the client find their position of most comfort. By locating and supporting this position, Dr. Pauls found the body will self correct and release pain patterns. Slight compression into joints, supporting muscles in the preferred contraction or stretch, or working with gentle resistance in a movement may all be employed during a session.

Ortho-Bionomy® will give you the ability to focus on areas of tension, pain patterns, or where you feel as though you are spiraling out of control. You will learn how to allow those same patterns to loosen, unwind and release. Techniques vary from subtle to very interactive, but are always applied within your level of comfort.

The techniques can be done in a variety of settings - in a chair, lying on a massage table or floor, or walking around the room. Generally performed through clothing, without oils or lotions, the client may be asked to remove their shoes, though I do incorporate the technique into an oil massage if you prefer.

Self care exercises help reinforce the session and further enable you to stay "in comfort."

Experience it for yourself.

My Training: I have completed the 1,000+ hours required in Ortho-Bionomy® to be an Advanced Practitioner. I have started the Instructor Training Program to reach my ultimate goal - to hold classes and help my clients and others learn how to use this technique to help themselves. If you are interested in attending An Introduction To Ortho-Bionomy® demonstration, would like to attend an Introduction to Ortho-Bionomy® class, or attend a formal class with a current Ortho-Bionomy® instructor please contact me or check the Classes page for upcoming seminars.
