Ortho-Bionomy: A Single Session.

1 hour, in person, in my office. You have a specific issue (physical pain, anxiety, something I’ve talked about on the blog you want to practice, a pattern that keeps you stuck, etc) you want gain awareness around and begin to address.

With comfort as our guide, we use osteopathic-based bodywork techniques to address the issue where it is held, in the body.

I teach you some awesome, wacky techniques that work to help you safely connect with your body and the sensations associated with the issue.  You are given specific self-care tools to help you continue the work on your own at home.

$125

The 4-Session Package.

Four 1-hour sessions, in person, in my office. Same procedure as above but with the opportunity to take the work deeper, to begin to unravel old, stuck, pain patterns in the body. Further, we will begin to explore how to apply the concepts of being gentle and kind with your pain and your patterns in your daily life.

$415 ($104/session)

The No-Risk First Session Guarantee: I offer a full refund if, within 24 hours of your first session, you decide this work is not for you. Many people experience a significant relief from pain or anxiety after one session but this outcome is not guaranteed. You may not be free of pain or even feel any better after one session but you will be able to experience the work risk-free and decide for yourself if it is worth continuing.

Hours (by appointment):

Sundays/Tuesdays 3:30pm–7:30pm
Mondays 9:00am–2:00pm
Occasional Tues/Wed morning times available as well.

Office:

Note! New location as of March 21, 2011. Free off-street client parking available.

  • I accept cash, personal check, or credit card. If paying by credit card, payment must be received prior to scheduling. Cash or check is expected at the time of service, prior to the actual session.
  • The package of four can either be paid in a lump sum or in two payments of $207.50.
  • A treatment plan will be determined at your first session if selecting the Four Session Package. The four sessions must be used within four months.

My promises to you:

  • To be your partner, not your expert. I know there is deep wisdom within you. I help you find and access that wisdom. If I play expert, you will not be able to access your own wisdom. To that end, I will not impose my personal beliefs or ideologies on you; rather, I will help you access your own.
  • To listen… to you, to your stories, to your body. To help you learn how to listen deeply to yourself.
  • To trust you and your body. To trust that you know exactly what you need. You might not know right now. You will know.
  • To model self-care. Through-out our time together, I commit to modeling and sharing my own Self-Care practices. It’s Jedi self-care training! Your body will get it whether we actually talk about it or not.
  • To celebrate! with you. Our bodies are our lifelong companions. Every step you take that deepens your relationship with your body is worth celebrating.
