What is Ortho-Bionomy?
Ortho-bionomy is a form of bodywork that developed out of Osteopathy in the 1970s. It is based on the principle that the body is an intelligent system and as such, is designed to self-correct when dysfunction occurs.However, despite our body's inherent self-corrective programming, sometimes dysfunction can persist.When this happens, Ortho-Bionomy can help by providing the body with the necessary information to facilitate self-correction.Ortho-bionomy is non-invasive, gentle, and safe for all ages.For more in-depth information on Ortho-Bionomy, please visit the Spotify link below.
