become well again

“It’s all in your walk, you must find it in nature, it must come from your heart and if you don’t understand Gairon, then you can’t continue.”


Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi

Amatsu Orthopathic Therapy seamlessly integrates modern research with ancient Japanese natural movement therapy, tracing its lineage over 2,000 years. Rooted in the teachings of Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi and Dennis Bartram's interpretations from the Hichi Buku Goshin-Jutsu Ryu, Amatsu Therapy offers a non-invasive whole-body approach, first imparted to Bartram by Dr. Hatsumi in 1986. This therapy draws on the pioneering work of Dr. Stephen Levin MD on Biotensegrity, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of bodily structures through tensional integrity.


At its core lies the principle of Go-dai, or 'Big Five,' which recognizes the intricate relationship among the body's major systems: Physical, Mental, Electrical, Chemical, and Environmental. Guided by the concept of Gairon, meaning "the bigger picture," practitioners of Amatsu Therapy transcend localized issues to address broader body imbalances. By restoring natural balance and functionality, this holistic approach promotes overall health and well-being.
