ortho-bionomy®

When the body is relaxed,
then the soul will also feel lighter.

Ortho-Bionomy is a gentle, non-invasive way to communicate with the body, instead of working on the body. A conversation with your body takes place, full of respect for you as an individual. Carefully selected positions and gentle touches allow the body to rediscover comfort and to find its natural inner balance. Your body and your energy can then be free of tension and stress.

The Ortho-Bionomy practitioner gently follows the body's  inner rhythm, taking note of the existing muscle tone, in order to ascertain the  natural posture and movement patterns. In this relaxed position, muscles and tendons can unwind, stress and emotional tensions can be released, leaving a deep feeling of peace and harmony. Old patterns of misuse can be replaced by long-term flexibility and comfort. New patterns of assurance and structural balance can be discovered.
