I had a fascinating talk with Dr. Maria DeFranco on The Functional Edge about her holistic approach that combines chiropractic care with fascia release, pelvic diaphragm balancing, and TMJ work. We dive into how these interconnected practices foster lasting pain relief, emotional release, and enhanced vitality. If you want to deepen your embodiment and self-care, this episode is for you.


Dr. Maria DeFranco, founder of OM3 Body, is a holistic practitioner integrating chiropractic care with fascial release, nervous system regulation, and embodiment practices. Her work focuses on reconnecting people to their vitality by addressing the whole person—physically, emotionally, and energetically. She also offers virtual care and is pioneering ceremonial healing rituals that blend breath, fire, and water for community health.
