An Endocrine Interpretation of Chapman's Reflexes
Written by Frank Chapman D.O. and Charles Owen D. O.
Excerpt from Foreword:
The relative constancy of the anatomic topography of Chapman's reflexes makes it possible to establish the location of pathology without knowing its nature. In considering the reflex effect on lymphatics, Dr. Chapman apparently assumed the existence of a neuro-lymphatic reflex (in the sense that we speak of neuro-vascular, neuro-muscular, neuro-humeral, etc.) as a part of the body's homeostatic mechanisms.

ALP Arthur Bionomy
Author/Editor: Arthur Lincoln Pauls
Arthur Bionomy is a name coined by Arthur for his personal style of Ortho-Bionomy. This includes being at "play" as he more often liked to call it.
Get a behind the scenes glimpse of the man who dedicated his life to helping people understand his world.
In a Residential setting Arthur often said, the "real" class many times took place out of the classroom. When students are relaxed and not "trying" to learn, understanding happens all by itself.

ALP Cranial Ortho-Bionomy
Cranial Techniques by Arthur Lincoln Pauls
Arthur's cranial Ortho-Bionomy is the culmination of a lifetime's experience of energy work, along with the integration of advanced techniques of Ortho-Bionomy.
Arthur believed the Cranium contained over 80% of the body's energy. For this reason alone, it cannot be approached and worked with by using purely physical techniques.
The techniques shown in this DVD go beyond physical understandings we have today of the Cranium and how it functions.
An understanding of energy work and the Four Responses are a requirement to grasp the gentle and delicate nature of Arthur's amazing Cranial techniques (90 minutes).

ALP Educational DVDs ~ Series One
Author/Editor: Arthur Lincoln Pauls
Phase 4 / Post Techniques / Home Exercises
The Phase 4 DVDs were filmed in Las Vegas and New Orleans in the summer of 1989 in between teaching seminars in the USA. These films were a family effort: Harreson, Arthur's son, was the cameraman. Tanya, his daughter, was nicknamed "the body" on the table. What you see here is the real Arthur showing us genuine natural Ortho-Bionomy methods. These films were created as a teaching tool, to help us fully understand the depth of Arthur's "original concept." He believed true healing comes from the connection, and the understanding we all possess, that lies within us all, but we have forgotten.

Disc 2: Lumbar/Sacro-iliac/hips/knee/feet (58 minutes)

ALP Educational DVDs ~ Series Two

Phase 5 / Phase 6 / The 4 Responses / Philosophy
The Phase 5 techniques were filmed in Switzerland in the fall of 1989 by Arthur Lincoln Pauls' son, Harreson.
Jeannie Yaeger, now sadly passed away, was chosen as the model for demonstrating these techniques because of her sensitivity for Phase 5. Note that Arthur does not say much in this series since he felt "the energy spoke for itself" and Phase 5 and 6 was meant for the advanced student of Ortho-Bionomy.
In the Phase 6 DVD, Lucia Giannetoni was the model, now an Advanced teacher of Ortho-Bionomy in Switzerland. She has an amazing sensitivity for Auric energy and was one of Arthur's favorite students.

Phase 8 Series: Isometrics DVD
Author/Editor: Terri Lee
By Advanced Instructor Terri Lee
This presentation focuses on incorporating Ortho-Bionomy® principles with the gentle active resistance of Isometric techniques. Using the principles you will learn how to apply specific isometric / isotonic techniques to assist the client in achieving structural balance. Using Isometrics enhances our ability to to apply the principles of Ortho-Bionomy to support and exaggerate the unconscious tension patterns. This in turn resets the contraction & stretch reflexes, bringing ease of movement and balance back to the body. This aspect of Ortho-Bionomy is excellent for people who seemingly "can't let go"or "relax"

Phase 8 Series: Posture and Post Techniques
Author/Editor: Terri Lee
By Advanced Instructor Terri Lee
This presentation focuses on the spine, it’s natural curves, movement, and the dysfunctional patterns which create our postures. This presentation incorporates Ortho-Bionomy® principles, applying specific techniques that bring intrinsic movement to the spine and rib cage. These principles teach assessment skills. Additionally, they provide tools to integrate the work done during a session. Techniques that work with spinal curvatures like scoliosis and lordosis are presented. You will learn to evaluate and address these inefficient postural patterns with simple exercises that facilitate a person’s ability to gain and maintain new postural habits.
Everyone can use these simple, easy to learn principles and techniques to help their friends, family and loved ones. We empower ourselves by becoming more aware of the tension patterns held in our bodies. This deeper understanding allows us to feel more comfortable and with greater ease of movement in our bodies as well as our lives.
All of the persons used to demonstrate in this film were evaluated for the first time, in front of the cameras at the time of filming. This was their first experience with Terri Lee and Ortho-Binomy.
