What is
The Lyno Method

The Lyno Method is a complimentary health modality that uses a holistic assessment to identify the areas in the body where unresolved physical and emotional trauma cause restrictions in fascia mobility; the cause of chronic pain and recurring injuries. Our gentle technique, incorporating soft touch with breathing, fully anchored attention and active movement, activates the parasympathetic nervous system, specifically through the Polyvagal Structure and facilitates the release of these fascia restrictions, restoring the neural pathways necessary for optimum function.

Lyno Explained

Benita Kropman, founder of the Lyno Method, explains the concept behind the method and the importance of a holistic approach to solve chronic pain and recurring injuries.

MOBILITY ASSESSMENT

Our full body mobility assessment shows exactly where unresolved trauma immobilises the fascia.

FUNCTIONAL ASSESSMENT

The BUNKIE test gives an overall indication of the client’s functional strength and core stability.

RELEASE FASCIA

Our gentle technique targets the parasympathetic nervous system to release physical and emotional trauma where needed.

UTILIZE NEUROPLASTICITY

By releasing fascia restrictions, we enable the brain to form new neural pathways to achieve full body alignment and function.

LONGEVITY

A fully functional and aligned body reduces wear and tear of joints and promotes all over health and fitness – the key to longevity.

OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE

The only way to reach peak performance is with a body which functions optimally, free of recurring and chronic injuries.

Do You Need Lyno?

Chronic pain and recurring injuries stem from the body’s retention of past injuries or excessive strain, predominantly stored within the fascia. When the mobility of the fascia is restricted, it leads to misalignment and impaired movement, ultimately causing overload and wear and tear – the underlying cause of chronic and recurring injuries. Through our comprehensive full body assessment, we precisely identify areas of movement restriction, allowing us to effectively facilitate the release of unresolved trauma. This process harmonizes the body and mind, restoring balance and maximizing overall functionality

I have been blessed with above average height and standing for days on end has wreaked havoc on my lower back and legs leading to chronic and recurring injuries. I have spent more on chiropractors and physios than I any sensible person would before they realise it is time to stop running, but anyone who knows me knows that stopping is simply not an option.

I have been blessed with above average height and standing for days on end has wreaked havoc on my lower back and legs leading to chronic and recurring injuries. I have spent more on chiropractors and physios than I any sensible person would before they realise it is time to stop running, but anyone who knows me knows that stopping is simply not an option. I heard about Lynotherapy through a friend and after reading up about the Lyno Method, I was convinced that this is the answer. It still boggles my mind how a treatment method can be so minimally invasive yet so effective.

I use Lyno as part of my training regime to help with any pains, stiffness, and also prevent injury, allowing me to reach optimal levels of performance. I've learnt so much in the time that I've worked with Gabi and I truly am a better and more knowledgeable athlete (in training and recovering like a champ) because of her. Gabi is great! And she will help anyone take the right steps towards achieving their goals.

I was introduced to The Lyno Method as a young professional cricketer more than twenty years ago following a near career-ending back injury during my tenure as a player for Boland. I am astonished by how the Lyno Method has evolved over the past few years. Holistically incorporating fascia release, mobility, and functional assessments to treat injuries. I was referred to Winsie Oosthuizen by Benita Kropman who after only two sessions, identified and effectively treated my chronic knee pain. Lyno has once again helped me restore optimum mobility and a balanced functional body as effectively as it did to prolong my career all those years ago. I am still astounded by how well the body responds to Lyno.

Due to my exposure to trauma and several injuries, I have been on a proactive search to find relief from chronic pain for the past couple of years. I am sincerely surprised and grateful that a non-invasive therapy such as Lyno improved my physical symptoms dramatically. Lyno gave me physical relief from chronic muscle pain; relief from pinched nerves; improvement in mobility and balance, and tools to address anxiety.

Out of my over 100 physiotherapy/sports therapy visits, I am delighted to say that Lyno is the most developed therapy I have received so far. When it comes to assessment and the modality as a whole, Lyno is a step ahead of the industry. Benita has built a system of holistic assessment, including a digital goniometer and an analysing tool with built-in algorithms to generate a fascia mobility profile and treatment protocol.  Lyno puts a great emphasis on what is happening outside the session, all the way into the daily habits and incidents in life that form the physical as well as emotional trauma. Within 2 weeks, I have recovered from my hamstrings injury.  Not only have I got rid of the pain, we were also able to identify the root cause of the injury so as to prevent recurrence and achieve optimal performance.

She was walking and swallowing better; it has...

It's one of those things that you'll never know if you don't try. My lower back was instantly better after the first session. Lyno has helped me maintain my body and lower back ever since.
