OSTEOFLOW THERAPEUTICS
“When you touch one thing with awareness, you touch everything.” —Thich Nhat Hanh
“What is this? How is this possible? These the questions that have popped in my head, but I don’t need to know the answer. What I do know is that these sessions are medicine and I know that it is healing me. For over two years, I have suffered chronic pain in my back with two herniated disks and found no relief. Until now. 100% relief during these therapeutic sessions. I had become so conditioned to my pain, that I didn’t even realize how bad it was, until all of a sudden…with a little adjustment from Leila, bam! A release! Inch by inch, the pain began melting away. I have never felt any therapy like this in my life. A feeling of everything dissolving into liquid energy…from my nerves, tendons, muscles, and bones. All tension  melting away.” —Elita Markey

​WHY OSTEOFLOW?
Because we are starving for connection—to be heard, felt, and seen. To be truly witnessed. Because we are exhausted and depleted. Because we know how to give but not how to receive. Because the body and mind need rest and the soul needs nourishment. Because each person is unique and requires different therapies, different treatment—different medicine.

OsteoFlow Therapeutics was born from the womb of my own health crisis. It has been inspired by my students, friends, and family who are suffering from chronic pain and inflammation; anxiety and depression. To all whom western medicine has left no answers within the exhaustive list of unspecified and incurable diseases. OsteoFlow is a response to this call with an antidote and simple solution:

Your body holds the answer. 

"Our fluid body is a magical place, where it can feel like we slip, slide and move from within, without any thought or effort. Our fluid body is a realm of bliss. We feel as if we are a drop of water in a vast and deep ocean. Our inner fluid realm is important for optimal health. It is a place of no resistance. Our tensions simply dissolve and melt back into the ground of our body. It is a place of inner freedom where fear, anxiety, and tension have no lasting hold on us. Staying in the deep waters of not knowing, without the impulse to action, allows the fullest transformation from potential to manifest." 

“This practice allows you to tap into the inner knowledge we all have but is silenced by our busy lives. The practice reveals our opportunities for healing and where the body needs release. For me that was and is around grief that is more broadly defined than death…it’s about death that emanates from not doing life in the present.” —Kelly Tolson Bennett.

“To live in alignment is not to be rigid, but to awaken the intelligence of the spiral where fascia responds in waves, and rebound becomes a language of trust. True alignment is a felt conversation between gravity and grace, a quiet rising from within. It is the embodiment of inner truth, woven through the elastic memory of fascia.” —Carlos Romera
"There is no more separation...My eyes are closed most of the time now, because I am feeling, sensing, and perceiving from the inside. This is a subtler, alchemic process. Like becoming lost within oneself or perhaps, like being born again. A kind of swimming through consciousness. The gift of this practice has removed all barriers. There is only this liquidity. This soft, palpable undercurrent of experience. No more resistance. Ripples of sensation releasing all tensions. No more you. No more me. No more of this “thing” we call body. There is no more separation…" --Leila A. Fortier

TRADITIONAL THAI YOGA BODYWORK HISTORY
Picture
Traditional Thai Yoga finds it's roots in Northern India over 2,500 years ago when Jivaka Kumar Bhaccha,  prestigious personal physical to Magadha King Bimbisara became a contemporary of the Buddha.

Thus, Jivaka's Ayurvedic healing applications reached Thailand where it was further refined to reflect Buddhist ideologies. This form of bodywork was understood to be the 
physical application of Metta,  'loving kindness'. Until recent history, Thai bodywork remained hidden in Buddhist monasteries for centuries until it reemerged as a viable and respected form of holistic medicine.

Thai massage is based  on the subtle-body anatomy of energetic lines (nadis) that run  through the body. Science has proven that disturbances in the flow of energy (prana) leave the body vulnerable to illness, injury, and emotional imbalance. Hands-on therapeutic assists of Thai yoga work to release stuck and dormant energies, thereby recruiting your body's natural agency to reduce pain and inflammation, thereby restoring health, vitality, and wellness.

OSTEOPATHY: A BRIEF HISTORY   ​
Osteopathy is a natural medicine and science that proposes that the entire body, when adequately nourished will function to maintain, repair, and heal itself. An Osteopath does not treat disease, but rather the  person who has a disease.  Osteopathy comes from the word osteome, which means structures of all living matter.  This includes bone, soft tissue, viscera, myofascia, veins, arteries, etc. Pathos is translated  as a profound emotion which needs to be expressed. Therefore, osteopathy is concerned  with the whole person, and how that person interacts with their internal and external environments.  

Osteopathy was discovered by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still  in 1874. Dr. Still was a physician and surgeon who,  in1860, lost three children and several patients to a  meningitis epidemic. At that time, he discontinued his  practice of medicine for approximately ten years, and he  began to question traditional medical concepts and  treatment. It was through his extensive study of anatomy  and physiology of the human being that, in 1874, he  defined the basic concepts of osteopathy.  He studied the consequences of vertebral and  peripheral malalignment which provoked circulatory,  lymphatic, nervous, and venous disorders. He found that  by restoring both anatomical and physiological  relationships between the organism’s systems, the body  has the inherent ability to heal itself.
