biodynamic Mind and bodywork

The Biodynamic mind and bodywork is a one-on-one in person deep relaxation model that allows the body's own natural healing forces to restore balance and vitality within the person. It is a combination of the Biodynamic approach to osteopathy, breathing  and visualization techniques to facilitate a more profound connection with our mind, body and soul.  

The Biodynamic model was developed by James Jealous, DO, who, after dedicating his life to studying these principles and the work of the embryologist Erich Blechschmidt, gave paramount importance to the acknowledgment of "a higher wisdom at work and to sense, rather than palpate, as the soul of osteopathy". Dr. Jealous recognized the parallels between Blechschmidt’s work and the work of Dr. Still and Dr. Sutherland. He saw that embryology provided a foundation, not only for our understanding of anatomy and physiology, but also for our understanding of osteopathic principles. He observed that the forces of embryological development did not cease functioning at birth, but were maintained throughout our lives as forces of growth and development, and were also involved in healing processes. 

Trying to explain how Biodynamic mind and bodywork sessions boost the healing process is like attempting to explain the working mechanism of the universe.  Humans, and all beings, are intimately connected with nature and this relationship is at the heart of the Biodynamic concept. This relationship we have with the natural world around us can be observed more closely with the study of embryology. The development of the embryo, its rhythm and gentle movements, are synchronized with the "Breath of Life". The "Breath of Life" is the name that Dr. Sutherland gave to what Dr. Still explained was the "higher wisdom at work within the living human". 

In Dr. Jealous' words: "Within the Dynamic Stillness we are healed without process or time. From the Breath of Life a new living matrix is created in each moment. The Tide brings us the power of Life and "feeds" us. The fluids respond, lawfully balancing the power of life and skillfully 'driving' the continuum towards perfect proportion." The Biodynamic approach assists the Health to fully express itself in the human body. It is the goal  of the biodynamic practitioner to concentrate on the health in the patient, not on the disease.
