Fraser Coast Ortho-Bionomy

Fraser Coast Ortho-Bionomy Ortho-Bionomy sessions and classes for pain relief, improved posture and nervous system reset. How does Ortho-Bionomy Work?

I received my first Ortho-Bionomy treatment in 1997, while struggling with an ongoing shoulder injury. I was intrigued that such a gentle method could have such powerful benefits. Within (3) treatments the chronic issue I had been living with for several years, and for which I'd undergone all kinds of treatment, resolved entirely. Coming from a science and Remedial Massage background, I began to study with Ortho-Bonomy Instructors myself in 1998. Originally my interest was for the ongoing professional development requirements of health fund compliancy for the massage industry. I soon realised the benefits the treatment offered, beyond that of massage. Studying in a self paced way, I spent the next (10) years attending classes, incorporating Ortho-Bionomy into my treatemnts, and now practice and teach as an Advanced Practitioner and Instructor of Ortho-Bionomy. I practice Ortho-Bionomy exclusively in my clinic now for several reasons

Ortho-Bionomy is a gentle, non-invasive method of therapeutic bodywork which uniquely addresses pain and stress patterns and promotes structural balance and ease of movement. Ortho-Bionomy differs from many forms of body work in that it doesn’t use pain to treat pain, or use forceful work to oppose what is structurally occurring within the body. Instead, Ortho-Bionomy interacts with the natural movement and structural patterns of the nervous system. These natural patterns are what allow our body to heal when injured. But sometimes, through injury, chronic pain, incorrect posture, repetitive overuse, disease or even aging, these patterns for self correction become overridden, confused, or inaccessible to the nervous system, and natural recovery can't occur. When we work supportively with the patterns currently at play within the body instead, of attempting to forcefully overpower them, information can be given to the nervous system that creates a follow-on effect through the body's natural reflexes. This allows corrections to occur comfortably for clients. Ortho-Bionomy Practitioners are trained to assess imbalances in the body that may cause pain or dysfunction. Then using gentle but deliberate movement, practitioners assist and track the client’s body as it accesses the self-corrective capacity, to return to optimum health.

Over the weekend these amazing principles guided us, as we supported a beloved elderly family member in her decision to take steps toward permanent supported aged care living. Such a big, emotive step for her.
While these principles guide how we use techniques working with the physical body, remembering them in personal interactions support ease for all concerned.

I'm heading back into the clinic tomorrow Heading back into the clinic tomorrow. Taking time off to let my fractured ankle mend has been an interesting period of growth and repair, physically but also mentally emotionally. So much opportunity to sit and be present.
I feel I'm returning with expanded understanding to support my practice and teaching.
Hope to see you soon.

The first class of the year.
No prerequisites required.
Ortho-Bionomy creates change via the natural laws and principles of life. It can be applied on its own, or combined with other modalities to enhance outcomes.
Mindfully applying Ortho-Bionomy's gentle movements and the principles of softening around the tender points; showing the body it's patterns; doing less to allow more to arise; having less attachment to specific outcomes; and never using pain or force to treat pain; creates a therapeutic space in which a client's nervous system can access its own self-healing processes, in an elegant, respectful, and natural way.

There's a lot I can't do with my grand babies this Christmas... but I can do this 🥰

When my grandbaby falls asleep on me,
the world forgets how to hurry.
Breathing slows.
The room grows gentler.
And everything loud steps aside.

Their weight settles into my chest
like trust without words.
A tiny heartbeat resting against years
of love, loss, and prayers
spoken long before this moment.

When my grandbaby falls asleep on me,
time loosens its grip.
I am no longer counting minutes
or planning what comes next.
I am simply here—
where nothing else is required.

I remember the nights
I once rocked their parent—
the exhaustion,
the worry,
the wondering if I was doing enough.
I didn’t know then
how quickly those nights would end.

Now I know.

So I don’t move too soon.
I don’t shift the weight.
I don’t rush the stillness.

I let the moment stay
as long as it wants.

Because when my grandbaby falls asleep on me,
I understand something I missed before—
that love isn’t found in doing more,
but in being willing
to hold still
while it rests.
