    This foundation class covers the history, philosophy and concepts of Ortho-Bionomy® and provides an overview of the basic release techniques. Movements and positions of comfort are demonstrated to facilitate the release of muscular tension and overall stress by stimulating the inherent, self-corrective reflexes of the body which help the body create structural alignment and balance from within.
    This class is an in depth look at the extremities. The instructor will present Phase Four techniques that specifically focus on issues of the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles and feet. The student will be taught to observe and recognize subtle changes that signify release of tension patterns and muscular contractions patterns and muscular contractions.  There will be a strong focus placed on the comfort of the person who is on table as well as the practitioner.
