Embodied Osteopathy: The Face as a Gateway to Healing

A 7-Week Live Online Course with Brian Siddhartha Ingle, ND, DO
Starts Wednesday, 7 October 2026
5:00–6:30 pm CEST

Discover the face as a living field of perception, expression, nervous system regulation, and healing.

Tension around the eyes, jaw, sinuses, or ears is often treated as a local problem. But the face is deeply connected with the brain, breath, fascia, cranial fluids, throat, tongue, spine, emotions, and nervous system.

In this experiential 7-week course, you’ll explore the face through biodynamic cranial osteopathy, somatic awareness, gentle self-touch, movement, breath, Internal Family Systems inquiry, and nervous system regulation.

Rather than forcing change, you’ll learn to listen for The Health — the deeper organizing intelligence already present within the body.

What You’ll Explore

• The face as an integrated cranial, fascial, fluid, and nervous system field
• The eyes and orbits as extensions of the brain and perception
• The sinuses in relation to breath, pressure, resonance, and internal space
• The jaw as a place of protection, expression, and adaptation
• The ears as organs of listening, balance, orientation, and safety
• The relationship between the tongue, throat, cranial base, and nervous system
• Gentle practices using soft gaze, humming, swallowing, self-touch, breath, and micro-movement
• Biodynamic principles including stillness, tide, neutral, and the inherent treatment plan

The 7 Modules

1. The Living Field of the Face
Foundations of biodynamic cranial osteopathy, stillness, tide, midline, and whole-face awareness.

2. The Living Eye
The eyes, orbits, fluid dynamics, perception, and nervous system regulation.

3. The Sinus Field
Breath, fluid movement, pressure, resonance, and internal facial space.

4. The Intelligent Jaw
TMJ, tongue, breath, protection, adaptation, and nervous system holding.

5. From Holding to Expression
A deeper experiential exploration of jaw tension, incomplete expression, and release.

6. The Ear as an Organ of Orientation
Listening, balance, pressure regulation, the eustachian tubes, jaw, throat, and safety.

7. Face as Perception & Expression
An integration of the eyes, ears, sinuses, jaw, throat, cranial field, and The Health.
