Many professions and modalities, including Ortho-Bionomy, use isometric and isotonic techniques with their clients. Ortho-Bionomy® is a unique form of bodywork with a reputation for being a gentle way to relieve pain. It is a hands-on / clothes-on / non-forceful positional release modality that helps the body create balance from within.
The Ortho-Bionomy® catalog of techniques includes working with the joints, muscles, posture, organs, fluids, cranium and the nervous system, and is based on the philosophy of allowing the body to heal itself by inviting change rather than forcing a correction.
In this 2-day workshop, you will learn when and how to appropriately use isometric and isotonic techniques in order to stimulate self-corrective reflexes, to work with inefficient muscular patterns, to increase range of motion, to release soft tissue, and to encourage ease, comfort, and tone within your clients. In particular, the use of Reciprocal Inhibition will be taught and practiced because of its ease and effectiveness.
This is an entry level class to the Ortho-Bionomy® series, and is open only to licensed massage therapists, acupuncturists and certain other licensed healthcare professionals*. This class serves as the pre-requisite to the advanced level topics in the series if you choose to continue your studies in this modality.

This class is now sold out — click here for what’s to come in July…Class date:Monday June 15, 202610:00 am – 6:00 pm7 CEUsElevate your manual therapy practice by transitioning from muscular isolation to systemic integration.
This continuing education course offers a comprehensive entry point into the dynamic field of myofascial work. Designed for practitioners looking to expand their clinical toolkit, this class bridges the gap between traditional massage and the latest research in fascial science.
Participants will explore the evolution of fascia—shifting from its historical reputation as “packaging tissue” to its modern recognition as a sophisticated, body-wide communicative system. Through a blend of evidence-based theory and intensive hands-on practice, you will learn how to identify fascial restrictions and implement specific strategies to improve tissue hydration, elasticity, and tension patterns.
Course Highlights:
- The Science of Fascia:A deep dive into fascial anatomy, thixotropy, and the latest research defining fascia as a physiological system.
- Postural & Palpation Assessment: Learn to see and feel fascial “tugs” and structural compensations through the lens of myofascial lines.
- The Main 7 Myofascial Techniques: Master the core manual applications used to mobilize tissue and restore function.
- Clinical Application:Understand the “why” behind the “how,” ensuring you can immediately apply these strategies to address chronic pain and mobility issues.
Hands-On Experience:
This is an interactive workshop. To ensure a deep kinesthetic understanding of the work, students will both give and receive treatment, allowing you to experience the profound effects of myofascial release firsthand.

$190 promo until August 8 ($250 after 8/8)Brand new class devoted to care of the pelvic floor — whether you’re a practitioner or just a person who has one!Course Date:Tuesday August 18, 202610:30 am – 4:30 pmEverybody knows how to build the biceps, whether we do it or not. When it comes to the pelvic floor, though, it’s more confusing. We can’t see it, we normally don’t touch it much, and it’s an intimate area of the body.
You can definitely learn to improve the function of your pelvic floor, and if you’re a bodyworker, you can learn to work on it safely and effectively.
In this class, Dr. George Russell, DC, will lead the topic of approaching the anatomy of this area as a whole, and will teach you new techniques to use when your tried-and-true ones no longer create the outcomes your client needs.
Come dressed in loose, comfortable clothing that you feel comfortable moving in, including pants with a soft waistband, and bring two sheets and a pillowcase with you.
