Our Block Therapy Workshop was such a hit, we’re bringing it back as a 3-part series this fall! Whether you’re looking for deep healing or simply want to explore the benefits, join one, two, or all three sessions with Renata Osorio. Each workshop focuses on different areas of the body to help you release tension and experience lasting relief.
🗓 Workshop Dates:
• Oct 12th | 1-3 PM – Pelvis & Legs
• Oct 26th | 1-3 PM – Shoulders, Arms & Head
• Nov 9th | 1-3 PM – Breast/Pec & Lungs
What is Block Therapy? Block Therapy is a powerful combination of sustained pressure and diaphragmatic breathing that works to release fascial adhesions—tension built up over time that can cause misalignment and pain. This method helps you restore body symmetry by addressing areas where fascia pulls on the bone, blocking blood and oxygen flow.
✨ Benefits Include:
• Improved posture
• Released chronic pain
• Enhanced range of motion
• Boosted lymphatic flow
• Emotional release
Whether you’re seeking relief from tension or exploring somatic healing, Block Therapy offers a unique way to detoxify your mind, body, and soul.
