About This Method
-
Tensegrity Medicine™ is a unique, cutting edge therapeutic method based on systems thinking and complexity theory. Every individual is viewed as an interconnected ecosystem, both internally and in the context of their external environment and lived experiences. Treatment is not focused on tackling individual symptoms, rather toward creating spaciousness for system wide coherence and harmony. Symptom resolution is a naturally occurring outcome of addressing root causes.
Tensegrity Medicine (TM) assessment and treatment utilizes biotensegrity informed relational anatomy and light touch techniques. Each practitioner of TM is singular and emphasizes skills based on their experience and personal relationship to a shared framework of fundamental principles.

This approach is cumulative and structural. Subtle shifts initiate profound global reorganization of the bodymind, therefore targeted interventions are precise and minimal.
The hands on techniques Laura utilizes most often (Bowenwork® and Craniosacral) are gentle to receive and minimally invasive. No pushing or forcing toward outcomes. Slow and gradual shifts prioritizing safety.
Pacing is client-lead. Your body cues guide the work.
Establishing trust and safety in the therapeutic relationship is vital. Direct feedback around anything that doesn’t feel right is always welcome and encouraged.
Every nervous system is unique and responds differently. A big part of the therapeutic process is curiously exploring together, whatever comes up.
