Dr. Kerry D’Ambrogio, DOM, AP, PT, DO-MTP, program developer, is an internationally recognized lecturer, author, physical therapist, osteopath and board certified acupuncture physician.

In his coursework, Dr. D’Ambrogio teaches students to search for the root cause of the patient’s symptoms from information taken during

the evaluation, and create specific treatment plans for their patients that identify which techniques to use, and how to integrate them into their treatment sessions.

Leveraging his expertise, Dr. D’Ambrogio partners thorough evaluation with Eastern and Western techniques to unlock perplexing pain issues for all patient populations, ranging from pediatrics to geriatrics. TBB’s gentle approach is effective for patient conditions such as orthopedic circumstances, accident and sports-related injuries, digestion, respiratory, neurological, and many others.

FOUR MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT TBB:

What is it?Total Body Balancing (TBB) is a thorough full-body evaluation and five-phase treatment approach developed by Kerry D’Ambrogio, DOM, AP, PT, DO-MTP

How does it work?TBB uses long levers (arms, legs, head/neck, or torso) and rhythmic mobilization to release tension in the muscles, fascia, joints, and ligaments to improve circulation, along with nerve and energy flow.

What does it do?This approach influences all systems of the body — craniosacral lymphatic, musculoskeletal, myofascial, and visceral — and supports the integration of specific treatments.

Why should I know TBB?Therapists gain methods to evaluate patients, and determine individualized techniques and treatment plans by utilizing the principles of ARTS:

Asymmetry | Range of Motion | Tension Tests | Special Tests

Therapists learn: • Where to start – at the location of pain or dysfunction, or far away • What technique to use when it is decided where to start • Where to go next • What to do when they get to the next site

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

ADDITIONAL D’AMBROGIO INSTITUTE PROGRAMS:Lymphatic Balancing (LBTB, LBUQ, LBLQ)Lymphatic Balancing (LB) techniques target excess fluid, swelling, fluid stagnation and lymphedema that is particular to the orthopedic patient. LB provides effective treatment for many conditions in addition to lymphadema. Learn evaluation using the ARTS principles (asymmetry, range of motion, tension tests, special tests).

Joint Balancing (JBUQ and JBLQ)Joint Balancing (JB) is used to treat joint hypomobility, hypertonic muscles, and fascial tension. The JB technique utilizes gentle isometric contraction to relax and lengthen muscle, fascial tension and normalize joint dysfunction.

Muscle Balancing (MBUQ and MBLQ)Muscle Balancing (MB) is used to treat protective muscle spasm by inhibiting muscle spindle activation, thereby decreasing afferent impulses to the brain.

Fascial Balancing (FBUQ, FBLQ and FBCR)Fascial Balancing (FB) treats fascial tension or scar tissue found at the superficial level and the deep level around muscles, bones, joints, organs, nerves, arteries and veins and at the deepest level around the brain and spinal cord.

Total Body Energetics (TBE1)Total Body Energetics (TBE) works with the energy dynamics of the anatomy and physiology of the body, and aids in releasing both acute and chronic patterns. TBE can be used as an incredibly effective stand-alone technique or can be integrated with other healthcare modalities.
