Ortho-Bionomy®
Ortho-Bionomy uses the most comfortable body position possible to reset the sensors in the musculature and joints known collectively as the proprioceptors. This process helps to reduce pain and suffering. Ortho-Bionomy has a unique perspective that expands the use of positioning. Dr. Pauls believed that we had an innate intelligence that knew how to self-correct.
Finding the best position for release was not just about the pressure and distortion of the proprioceptors, but depended on the intention of the practitioner to encounter (and be in relationship with) our natural self-healing. Dr. Pauls also developed Ortho-Bionomy energy techniques to access more subtle levels of healing.
Ortho-Bionomy addresses a remarkable number of painful and debilitating physical conditions such as headache, back pain, sprains/strains, sports injuries, acute injuries, restricted movement, knee problems, acute and chronic pain, neuromuscular dysfunction. It can have a profound impact on physical, emotional and spiritual trauma. This holistic perspective takes into account the client's complete experience of pain and suffering and the means of resolving it. In Ortho-Bionomy the client is empowered to take control of his or her own healing.
I have an Ortho-Bionomy practice in Los Angeles, CA. Read more about my practice at "Healing Body Therapeutics."

- An Introduction to Ortho-Bionomy®
- By Richard Karasik, CMT, BSEE, M, Eng
"I came to Ortho-Bionomy® after many years of working in other modalities. I was looking for a way to help my daughter who was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and had the trauma of several car accidents. As soon as I took my first class, I realized I had found something that was remarkable in its simplicity, yet powerful and effective for people with mind/body trauma." - Ortho-Bionomy: Teaching the Body to Remember
- by Barry Kapke, ACST, CI
"Ease and harmony - that's what the body seeks to rediscover with Ortho-Bionomy®, a gentle osteopathically-based system for working with the body's self-corrective reflexes. According to Ortho-Bionomy founder Arthur Lincoln Pauls, D.O., ease and harmony are things we already know, and Ortho-Bionomy is one way of remembering. It is an educational tool "of a high order." - Ortho-Bionomy: The Homeopathy of Bodywork

"Ortho-Bionomy is a gentle, effective approach to somatic re-education that uses
comfortable positioning and relaxing movements to unlock tension, relieve pain,
promote structural balance, reduce stress and increase personal awareness and wellbeing."
