An Ortho-Bionomy® practitioner encouraged Mr. Knopp to get a session to really experience this gentle bodywork. Mr. Knopp explained , "The first session I received was very pleasant, but I walked out of the practitioner's office feeling like she hadn't really "done" anything. Three hours later, the bones in my neck and skull began to move in ways I initially found frightening, but which relieved the chronic tension in my jaw and over my eyes. This after-effect continued for the next two days, each day bringing greater relief than the last."
