Ortho-Bionomy
Ortho-Bionomy is a gentle yet highly effective form of therapeutic bodywork. It is used to relieve pain and to restore natural alignment and well being. It helps resolve chronic and acute injuries, stress and trauma, as well as problems associated with postural and structural imbalances. Using comfortable positions and gentle movements, Ortho-Bionomy triggers the body’s own self-correcting reflexes. No forceful manipulations are used. Instead, using gentle positioning, Ortho-Bionomy employs the body’s innate wisdom to find balance and health.

Time to Heal and Discover
I am so happy to be coming back to teach. It does not feel like a 'coming back' really, but a 'moving forward'. We will be careful, masked, air purified, windows open and other new protocols. We have all had a dramatically altered life for more than a year now....
