Ortho-bionomy

is a gentle, non-invasive system of healing that reminds the body of its natural ability to restore balance. Founded in the martial arts and osteopathy, it gently stimulates the body's reflexes using gentle compression and subtle contact.. The Simplicity means the practitioner and client can work together in somatic dialogue to re-educate dysfunctional patterns, working to restore normal functioning.

The result is seemingly effortless pain and tension relief, natural realignment, and a deep sense of well being.

Ortho-Bionomy has been described as the marriage of osteopathy and the martial arts. By putting an energetic spin to osteopathic positional therapy, an elegantly simple bodywork style emerged that can simultaneously release musculoskeletal tissue, the energy anatomy, and accompanying emotions. In person and long distance healing sessions are available.

Reflexology

is an ancient technique with roots in many cultures.

Every part of the body has a referral, or "reflex" point on the feet which when properly stimulated can bring about homeostasis, or balance, for that body part. This technique is useful for anyone, but specifically helpful to provide quality and effective care when direct work is not recommended.

O-B Cranial Work

is based on work developed by osteopaths who observed the cranial bone structure and developed a system that releases blockages in the fascia within the cranium. It is profoundly relaxing and enhances the efficiency of the immune system, as well as helping with unresolved trauma, learning disabilities, and chronic pain.

Subtle Body Energy

works with the life force and the energy anatomy- the electromagnetic field surrounding the physical body (the aura) and the 7 major chakras -energy centers located along the midline of the body that allow energy to move into and through the physical body.

Cleansing the aura and balancing the chakras helps to clear blockages that contribute to stagnant energy, clearing impurities left behind by medication and negative emotional states.
