The Feminine Perspective

The Feminine Perspective is about listening and allowing, it is not about doing the technique exactly, but rather about applying the technique principles and modifying them according to the patient’s response.

Lori’s work emphasizes how we need both masculine & feminine approach to be masters with Myofascial Release and demonstrate how beginning with the feminine qualities that we all have, the treatment is more effective and easier on your body.
