Holodynamic Bodywork

Holodynamic Bodywork is Glen Weimer's unique synthesis of polarity therapy, somatic trauma work, and subtle osteopathic (manual therapy) techniques, including myofascial release and muscle-energy techniques, structural mobilization, Craniosacral and Visceral therapy. This work is an Energy- or Consciousness-based therapy, utilizing dialogue and hands-on techniques that engage the Autonomic and Central Nervous Systems to unlock deep-seated traumas, release chronic and acute conditions, and balance the body-mind system. Holodynamic Bodywork addresses a full range of issues such as physical injuries, muscle pain, structural distortions, physiological challenges, emotional overwhelm, and overall stress reduction.

Polarity therapy is a forerunner in the field of energy medicine, applying the perspective and principles of quantum physics to natural healing. It uses a systems approach to understand the connections between structural and physiological adaptation patterns and physical, mental, and emotional stresses. Through hands-on bodywork techniques and dialogue, we engage the body-mind’s self-healing wisdom to restore balance and health.

Polarity was founded by Dr. Randolph Stone, DO, ND, DC, (1890-1981) from over 60 years of study, travel, and medical practice. Dr. Stone synthesized diverse concepts — modern, ancient, Eastern, and Western to create a comprehensive system of assessing and treating the full range of health conditions.  Polarity Therapy includes Energy- or Consciousness-based bodywork, nutrition, yoga/movement, and body-centered counseling to support whole-person health. (also see: What is Polarity Therapy?)

Manual therapy uses osteopathic manipulative techniques, first developed by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, DO, MD (1823-1917) and expanded upon by subsequent osteopaths, involving gentle hands-on manipulations to promote tissue repair, normalize structure and restore healthy body function. Osteopathy emphasizes a philosophy that includes body, mind, and spirit unity; the reciprocal relationship between structure and function; and the body's capacity for self-regulation, self-healing, and health maintenance. Glen's treatments incorporate this philosophy and many subtle manual therapy techniques including myofascial release, muscle-energy technique, positional release, craniosacral and visceral therapy.

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle whole body osteopathic approach that works with the core of our being: structurally, physiologically, emotionally and spiritually.  It influences the central nervous system; brain and spinal column, as well as the fluid it bathes in.  This fluid is called cerebral spinal fluid (CSF).   The human body is 70+% fluid which moves in rhythm with the tidal motion of the CSF.  This fluid motion underpins the shape and movement of every aspect of body's systems; from our musculoskeletal system and the bones of the cranium to each individual organ system.  Glen's sessions combine biomechanical and biodynamic craniosacral approaches.

Visceral Therapy

Visceral Therapy is a gentle hands-on approach that works with the internal organs—the viscera—and their relationship to the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Each organ has both mobility, its ability to move freely in relationship to surrounding organs and structures, and motility, its own subtle intrinsic motion. Restrictions in either can create patterns of tension that extend through the fascia, ligaments and other connective tissues into the ribs, spine, pelvis and surrounding musculature.

We tend to think of the musculoskeletal system as the framework of the body—the “box”—and the organs as things contained inside it. In reality, the two are intimately connected, both mechanically and through the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Many of the body's standing patterns of muscular tension are maintained automatically, outside conscious control. Visceral restrictions and autonomic patterns can therefore participate in both creating and maintaining structural tension, just as restrictions in the musculoskeletal system can influence the tissues surrounding the organs. Glen's approach draws from Jean-Pierre Barral's Visceral Manipulation, Integrative Manual Therapy and osteopathic principles, integrating visceral, structural and nervous-system work rather than treating them as separate systems. Through gentle palpation and manual techniques, he works with these reciprocal patterns to restore greater mobility, adaptability and ease throughout the body.

Somatic Therapy

Trauma, overwhelm, or chronic stress lives in all our bodies, causing tension that persists even after our minds have moved on. We may notice it as unexplained tightness, anxiety, fatigue, a sense of being “on edge,” or the feeling that our nervous system is still stuck in survival mode.

Somatic Therapy helps your nervous system feel safe again. Through gentle, body-centered touch, breath awareness, grounding, and mindful dialogue, this work supports your system in releasing held tension and nervous system charge—not by reliving the past, but by helping your BODY complete what was never fully processed.

Unlike traditional talk therapy alone, somatic approaches recognize that stress and overwhelm are stored in your body's felt-sense experience. When the nervous system remains in protective patterns, it affects everything from emotion and energy levels to physiology and movement. Trauma isn't just held in your thoughts—it lives as a pent-up charge in your nervous system.

Using trauma-informed, non-relive techniques (including elements of Somatic Experiencing, Holographic Memory Resolution, and other body-centric approaches), sessions help you reclaim parts of yourself, fostering a sense of safety, ease, and presence from the inside out. Whether you feel overwhelmed, frozen, or disconnected from your bodily experience, Somatic Therapy supports deeper regulation, resilience, and a renewed capacity to live with more ease and aliveness.
