What is the DORN METHOD?
Dorn consists of a range of simple exercises and techniques which aim to help joints and vertebrae slip back into their natural positions. In addition, a very gentle spinal back massage is given to safely stretch, align, energize and relax the spine.
A range of simple after care exercises are also provided for clients to take away and practise in order to help them benefit over the long term. For example, clients are shown simple, easy to learn short exercises to perform each day to help keep the hip and the lower back in place.

Dorn Therapy
Dorn is a gentle spinal and joint therapy designed to help alleviate back problems and other common health problems caused by a wrongly placed vertebrae or differing leg lengths
It is a non manipulate treatment and helps joints and vertebrae slip back into their natural position through self determined movements of the client
It has its origins in Germany where it is now one of the most widely used therapies for back pain
It is a holistic treatment which means other areas may be helped as a consequence of working on the meridian and nerve system of the body
It is free of unpleasant side effects, completely safe and an innocuous treatment. No medication is required
It is a very safe treatment, without a single report of client injury in its history
All corrections only happen in a dynamic way, that is, with the client aiding therapy by actively participating with the therapist
The Dorn Method offers long term benefits
The Dorn Method is a combination of three parts, which together provide an overall maintenance and preventative joint care system designed to look after the body over the long term.
As well as the actual therapy, which focuses on looking for and correcting imbalances within the body, Dorn also promotes the use of better posture in day to day life. For example, simple suggestions include not sitting crossed legged or not slouching whilst seated in front of the computer at work; these are typical bad habits we fall into, and which over time can lead to health problems.
Dorn also teaches a set of simple, easy to learn self-help exercises which are designed to be taken away and practised at home to maintain balance in the body and good health over the long term. A few minutes spent each day for example on a simple leg length correction excercise, can help to keep the hip joint in place, and the spine sitting straight.
