Body re-education for pain relief and self-healing

Dawn is an Advanced Ortho-Bionomy Practitioner
Ortho-Bionomy is light-touch body work. It combines Osteopathy principles with energetic and philosophical concepts from Martial Arts and Homeopathy. Together, it provides a unique system of body re-education.
It is excellent for pain relief and self-healing. You learn to be more at ease physically and energetically, and may also experience changes in your attitudes and emotions.

How it works
During an Ortho-Bionomy session, you are fully clothed. Dawn will ask you to describe areas of discomfort, and to give feedback throughout the session to make sure you are comfortable. (Working within comfort zones is one of the most important principles of Ortho-Bionomy.)
The gentle movements and subtle pressure used result in deep relaxation, and loosening of the tight muscles around restricted areas.
Rhythmic movements and isometrics or integrative exercises are used to help re-educate your body and reinforce the work.
After a session
Having been activated, your body’s self-correcting reflexes naturally bring your structure and energy back into alignment. Unhealthy tension patterns often resolve, while circulation, flexibility and range of motion increase.
Although one or two sessions may relieve specific symptoms, for chronic problems several sessions over a longer period of time may be necessary to release the body’s adaptive reactions, and re-educate it to more natural and healthier responses.
