Supervised Teach with Liz Olivias
16 hours

In Phase 4 we learn Points, Positions, Releases, Isometrics, Posture, and Movement Exploration. In Phase 5 we will advance these bodywork basics and transition into a deeper tissue discovery and further development of proprioceptive and palpatory skills. Phase 5 can be considered as a bridge between a Physical and an Energetic approach to the client. The expansive skill set offered in Phase 5, will allow us to approach and understand our clients and ourselves in a more holistic manner.

Phase 6 is an Energetic Application of the Principles, Techniques, and Practices we have learned in Phase 4 and Phase 5 Ortho-Bionomy Classes. In Phase 6, we primarily work with the Etheric Body, Aura, Subtle Bodies or Energy Field of the client. Any of these terms can be used interchangeable, based on your background and exposure to what is commonly termed “Energy Work”. At times, we will have our hands on our client’s physical body, but most of the interface occurs off the body.

Phase 7
8 contact hours

In Phase 7 Class we will learn how to extend the practice and principles Ortho-Bionomy® into a more universal understanding. This approach can be focused on your own self-care, or it can be used while working with clients, be they humans, animals or plants, as it can apply to all life. Applications from personal to global are possible because the spiral pattern that we use as our primary tool is found in many aspects of the natural world, from the atom to the cosmos. The spiral has long been used to represent the interconnectedness of all things, especially connecting the spiritual and physical realms. Integrating Phase 7 during sessions and using it with specific body parts will be presented. Phase 7 can be used both in person and at a distance to influence positive outcomes in a myriad of circumstances.

Phase 5 & 6 are recommended (or with permission of instructor). In this 3 Day Class the basics of the Cranio-Sacral Mechanism will be presented from the perspective of Indirect work. In preparation for Cranial PRT we will address the anatomical specifics and releases for C1 & C2 or Atlas/Axis, Sacral Joint & Ligaments, and the Horizontal Fibers or Diaphragms of the Body.  We will address the Posterior Vault of the Cranium with specific releases for the Occiput & the Parietals as well as the Primary Sutures of the Skull.

Facial Bones & Temporal Mandibular Joint
24 contact hours

​Cranial I is a prerequisite for Cranial II. The Sphenoid Bone, or Anterior component of the S/B Junction, and it’s function is the primary driver or determinate for all of the Facial Bones. We will first review the function of the S/B Junction learned in Cranial I, and use it for ongoing assessment during this 3 Day Class. We will address each Facial Bone and all of it’s articulations during this Class, from an Ortho-Bionomy and Positional Release perspective. In addition to the Sphenoid Bone, this will include; Frontal, Ethmoid, Lacrimal, Nasal, Vomer, Zygoma, Maxilla (Palate), Palatine, and Mandible Bones. These frontal bones constitute the Orbit of the Eye, the body structure of the Nose, and the foundation of the Mouth. The Temporal Mandibular Joint (TMJ) is a highly complex joint which has extraordinary demands placed upon it in the course of daily living. Eating and talking are two of its functions, which are vital to life. We will start by treating Muscles which have an influence or attachment on the TMJ.
