Our Work Helps With

Easing Chronic Pain & Tension

Ortho-Bionomy® uses gentle positioning and light touch to help the body unwind layers of tension, whether they come from injuries, surgeries, stress, overuse, or long-term patterns of holding.

Restoring Natural Alignment

Through subtle movements and positions of comfort, sessions encourage the body’s innate self corrective reflexes, helping joints, muscles, and structure return to a more balanced and supportive place.

Supporting the Nervous System

This work gently calms the nervous system, reduces overwhelm, and invites the body into a deep sense of ease—often creating space for clarity and a more peaceful grounded sense of self. Helping to ease Trauma in the body.

How My Own Recovery Inspired This Work

Years ago, I was recovering from a traumatic, life-altering injury that left me uncertain about my future. Conventional approaches weren’t giving me the relief I hoped for, and I struggled to find a path forward. When I discovered Ortho-Bionomy®, the gentle, respectful nature of the work allowed my body to release patterns of pain and tension in ways I had never experienced before. It brought clarity, comfort, and hope back into my healing process.

Today, I share this work because I believe in it. I understand what it feels like to live with pain, discomfort and uncertainty while searching for something that truly helps. Ortho-Bionomy® honors the body’s innate wisdom and its natural ability to self-correct. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where each person can reconnect with ease, balance, and relief—at a pace that feels right for their body.

Ortho-Bionomy® Questions

Common Questions

What should I wear to my session?

Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily. Most sessions take place on a massage table, but I can also work with you seated or standing if needed.

Most Ortho-Bionomy® sessions are 60–75 minutes. This allows enough time for your body to settle, unwind, and respond gently to the movements and positions of comfort.

I accept cash or check at the time of your appointment.

No. The work is gentle and non-force. Sessions use comfortable positioning and subtle movements to help your body release tension naturally—never through pressure or pain.

Ortho-Bionomy® doesn’t use deep pressure or adjustments. Instead, it supports the body’s own corrective reflexes and helps release tension through ease, comfort, and positional alignment.
