I am so grateful to have found the Lyons Institute and Judah Lyons. I have been a manual therapist (massage therapist and Physical Therapist Assistant) for almost 25 years and have studied many modalities. I originally thought my interest was in learning Craniosacral but decided to get the entire package and now I’m in love with the benefits I’m getting from the Structural Integration. I have many patients with joint replacements, back pain, postural and spinal conditions and find these techniques to be very powerful and loved by my patients. I also find the wisdom inherent in Biodynamic CS to be invaluable with my patients who have suffered the trauma of chronic pain, surgeries, and strokes.
I was skeptical if online learning would be enough but it’s fabulous! Judah’s explanations and the visuals are exceptional – and I always have them to refer to when I need. I have had questions and more questions and each time I email Judah he gets back to me within a few hours. I have emailed him about specific patients and clients and he has been very helpful with his suggestions and asks me to tell him how each is working and makes additional suggestions. He is truly generous with his expertise and knowledge.
I have been able to integrate Judah’s teachings with other ways I work and as promised on his website – my skills and practice have been taken to the next level!
