Infants and children can experience trauma, injury, and imbalance just like adults. Because they are inherently resilient, they usually find ways of compensating that provide adequate use of their moving bodies. However, sometimes these patterns can create dysfunction or pain and can make the natural growth stages difficult to attain. From trouble with breastfeeding, to delayed motor skills, to challenges with anxiety or sensory sensitivities, Ortho-Bionomy® can harmonize an infant or child's structure, fluids, and organs for ease of growth and development.

The purpose of our group sessions is to provide a safe space for babies and their caregivers to experience Ortho-Bionomy® in a supportive environment. Community sessions are generally one hour in length for up to five babies, include 1-3 bodywork practitioners, and are a more affordable option to discover if this therapy resonates with your baby. Our practitioners assess and observe the babies, provide gentle hands-on bodywork for each baby and their individual needs, and discuss helpful techniques or exercises for continued care. There is often valuable education around developmental milestones, best practices for baby handling, and ways to support your growing child.
