More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
This is the first book on Ortho-Bionomy, a bodywork technique which is quickly gaining popularity among laypeople and therapists from all bodywork disciplines. Kathy Kain gives clear descriptions of the philosophy and concepts of Ortho-Bionomy. The illustrations and easy to understand technical instructions show the standard releases taught in Ortho-Bionomy classes. The student is guided from the beginning of a session to the end in learning this gentle, effective approach to somatic re-education. Ortho-Bionomy’s primary benefit lies in helping people to break the cycle of pain by learning how to correct structural and somatic dysfunction and to release stress. This noninvasive, quick acting approach is an effective preparation for mobilization, movement and therapeutic exercise.

Ortho Bionomy Manual - Great for practicing therapists, 17 Jan 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ortho-bionomy: A Manual of Practice (Paperback)
Ortho Bionomy, a practical manual is a good summation of the various techniques for practicing this theraputic modality. I consider Ortho Bionomy to be a bit like Chiropractic, in that it deals with manipulating the joints. It is a great technique for massage therapists to add to thier repertoire. I would recommend taking a weekend seminar in this methodology, rather than just trying to pick it up from the book. Many techniques are such that you need to observe them first person. For therapists wishing to utilize Ortho Bionomy as part of thier practice, the book is certainly useful, even more so when combined with a seminar taught by a qualified instructor.

A very healing modality, 9 Feb 2006
By Julie "book-aholic" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ortho-bionomy: A Manual of Practice (Paperback)
I am an acupuncturist, with some training in orthobionomy by seminar. This book is a wonderful aid for reviewing the techniques taught in person and beyond. Orthobionomy is a fantastic way of relieving trigger points and other aches and glitches in the body that more traditional healing therapies have a hard time fixing. I use many modalities, but this therapy seems to be the one my patients most ask for.

It works!, 31 Dec 2008
By ellen elphand - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ortho-bionomy: A Manual of Practice (Paperback)
For the practitioner who would like a quick and easy way to help heal any type of physical discomfort. Easy to follow and understand. Simple to use. VERY EFFECTIVE. Add even one of these techniques (which can take about 5 minutes or less!) to ANY type of physical therapy or healing and you've increased your practice 10 fold. THIS WORKS.
