While not a manipulative therapy, it has its roots in Osteopathy and has evolved to include advances in neuroscience, human development, pre- and perinatal psychology, and trauma resolution. Practitioners are trained to facilitate the resolution of conditions resulting from stress, overwhelm and injury.
