Who can benefit from Ortho-Bionomy?
Those with back pain, knee pain, neck pain, etc.
Those with headaches, migraines, digestive issues, tight fascia, etc.
All pain in the body is caused by an imbalance. Using Ortho-Bionomy we can track what is off balance and correct it helping your body to relax and pain subside.
Since Ortho-Bionomy works through the nervous system we can connect and work on any system in the body, improving its functions and capabilities.
Pregnancy.
Those recovering from surgery or an accident.
Your body goes through many changes throughout pregnancy. My goal is to help these changes be as seamless and pain-free as possible.
Your body goes through a lot when faced with dramatic changes. Ortho-Bionomy can help your body heal and adapt to the changes that are presented for a quicker recovery.

Explore the range of motion and tightness in the body
Relax and follow your body
Range of motion can tell us a lot about what is going on in the body and also help us see improvement as the range of motion improves.
Let go of the stress of life. Pay attention to how your body reacts. At times I may ask for your feedback/insight on tenderness and what motions your body prefers to give us a better idea of what is going on.
What people say
What is Ortho-Bionomy?
Where did it come from?
Ortho-Bionomy was developed by Arthur Lincoln Pauls, a British osteopath who in the 1970s stumbled over a study done by Osteopath Dr. Lawrence Jones called “Spontaneous Release Upon Positioning”. This study found that the body when put into optimal positions would self-correct on it’s own. Dr. Pauls took this study and started implementing it into his daily practice and it eventually became what is now Ortho-Bionomy.
How does it work?
Practitioners of Ortho-Bionomy use various techniques to stimulate the body's self-correcting system resulting in long lasting results. These techniques can include gentle movements, precise positioning, and light pressure on specific areas. The goal is to encourage the body to correct itself rather than using external force or harsh manipulation. This results in a higher chance of long-term release instead of “quick fixes”.
