Overview
Hi, I’m Jo or Joana.
I’ve travelled a long way to get to where I am right now, as each of my fellow participants, I am sure. The biggest challenge for me was finding work that has meaning, a role where you can authentically show up, and the courage to pursue.
I began my Ortho-Bionomy journey in August 2020. Out of work and back at ‘home’. I had saved money to travel to India to further my studies in Yoga and Ayurveda. Instead, I purchased a car that ran well and as many courses in Ortho-Bionomy as I could.
“Ortho-Bionomy® is a holistic approach to healing and is helpful for a wide range of concerns from everyday stress and tension to impact injuries and trauma, repetitive stress, women’s health issues, surgical rehab, sciatica and other nerve complaints, arthritis, scoliosis, and cranial care”. I strongly believe in the principles and practice of Ortho-Bionomy; it is a practice that I feel comfortable and confident in sharing.
I have reached a level where I can practice through intensive training, and I am very close to being a certified practitioner. I am hoping to receive funding to complete my courses, purchase a decent massage table and some money to help me market myself and my business.
I want to mention that I feel blessed to be amongst such a bright bunch and part of the Lift Women project. I wish everyone the best of luck and hope you all succeed and thrive. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Stretch Goals
Building a thriving practice- $5000.00
I have started my business as a mobile business to cut the cost of the rent. However, I would like to get to the stage where I can rent a room for at least one day a week to start with and then hopefully add more days as my business grows.
I want to approach these organisations and offer free treatments;
- SCARFS (People experiencing mental and physical trauma)
- STARS Foundation (Supporting Indigenous girls and young women).
- STARTTS NSW (Rehabilitation of Torture and Trauma Survivors). Starting with treating one client for free a week and growing that base as my business allows.
I want to travel and collaborate with others to participate in retreats and wellness programs to offer Ortho-Bionomy treatments to clients.
I will use the extra money for resources, a 5-day residential training program to qualify, marketing, and rent for a room to treat from.

good luck x
