Ortho-Bionomy Therapy

Ortho-Bionomy is a form of manual therapy that uses gentle movements, positions, and pressure to help the body release tension and pain. It is based on the principle that the body has the ability to self-correct and maintain balance, and the therapist works with the body rather than against it to facilitate this process.

Ortho-Bionomy practitioners at Naturopath Osteopath Clinic use a variety of techniques, including light touch, stretching, and compressions, to help the body achieve a state of relaxation and balance.

The goal of Ortho-Bionomy is to help the body find its own natural alignment and function, rather than imposing a specific treatment or correcting a particular problem. It is often used to treat chronic pain, stress, and other physical and emotional conditions.

Chronic pain: Ortho-Bionomy can help reduce chronic pain by helping the body release tension and improve function.

Musculoskeletal issues: Ortho-Bionomy can help address musculoskeletal issues, such as back pain, neck pain, and shoulder pain, by helping the body release tension and improve function.
Headaches and migraines: Ortho-Bionomy can help reduce the frequency and intensity of headaches and migraines by helping the body release tension and improve function.
Digestive issues: Ortho-Bionomy can help improve digestion by helping the body release tension and improve function in the digestive system.
