Biodynamic osteopathy is one out of several technics used in osteopathic field nowadays. This method, without cracking nor manipulating is calling the Breath of Life as a tool of treatment and diagnostic. The Breathe of Life is breathing through living tissues emanating rythmes and amplitude perceived by therapist’s skillful hands.
Biodynamic osteopathy observe interchanges between structural dynamic organization and metabolic activities allowing life to express. This method recognize the inherent wisdom and intelligence of each cell, inviting by what have been lost, internal self correction principles, of guiding, restoring and maintaining somato-emotional integrity of self. It’s an artful way of using anatomy and physiology to invite people to thrive in their own being.
Dr. Sutherland, father of cranial osteopathy via his reflexion on cranial sutures, handed down to us a vision of biodynamic osteopathy dramatically different from the mechanical point of view commonly used at that time. Sutherland speaks about inherent healing forces, living mechanism and an inherent treatment plan. In the late 40ties, his writings focused on the master though : “Allow physiologic function within to manifest its own unerring potency rather than apply a blind force from without.”
The foundation of biodynamic osteopathy was laid down. Generation of osteopaths have dug on, studied and practiced, sometimes with bravery, these concepts with hope and joy to bring humankind to thrive its natural potential for balance and harmony.
