This program is composed of seven weeklong modules. Each module has it’s own synergy with a combination of classes that share a unifying theme. Unique to this NMAHA program, the module themes express philosophy and concepts that are fundamental to the wider understanding and practice of Ortho-Bionomy®.
Students work throughout their programs on practical study, and must choose an advisor from the Ortho-Bionomy faculty to guide them through the program. The rhythm of the program schedule provides periods of concentrated study interwoven with time for integration and practice.
“The Ortho-Bionomy instructors have shown me a way of living that feels true and content – one that heals client and therapist alike. After 12 years of professional bodywork, it feels like I’ve come home.”
- Ivan Block, Santa Fe, NM
LMT, MTI, Massage and Medical Massage Instructor at NMAHA
