“Pain-Free Reciprocal Inhibition Release Techniques” Using the Ortho-Bionomy principles, Isometric and Isotonic techniques can add an element of strengthening within your therapeutic sessions through the additional tool of active movement.
This additional approach can be invaluable for releasing “hard-to-reach” restrictions, without creating pain. Through the use of reciprocal inhibition, the muscle can be engaged, self-correcting reflexes can be stimulated, and habitual holding patterns can be released.
These techniques can encourage clients to actively participate in their session and can easily become homework for self-care. Learn a fast and effective tool for your practice that is gentle for your clients and easy on your body.
This Isometrics/Isotonics class focuses on techniques to release constrictions: 1. Related to the Glenohumeral Joint 2. Around the Wrist 3. Connected to the saddle joint of the Thumb
