Eva Lipton-Ormand

German-American holistic healthcare practitioner and learning design consultant Eva Lipton-Ormand brings experience from the performing arts, fine arts, literature, and education from two continents to her practice.​​

Background in Dance and Movement

A solid background in dance (Joffrey Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, Melissa Hayden, Margaret Craske, among others) has given Eva a first-hand understanding of kinesthesia and kinesiology as well as the effects of injury. Eva's exploration of The Three Bodies Institute's Biodynamic Osteopathic Manual Therapeutic Techniques and certification in Osteodouce (2025) is currently meaningfully enhancing her practice of biodynamic/Polarity-based Core Synchronism.

Holistic Bodywork and Therapeutic Training

Eva is a 2007 graduate of New Mexico School of Natural Therapeutics' 800-hour program in Swedish Massage, introductory Polarity, Reflexology, Herbal Studies, Bach Flower Remedies, TCM, among other modalities. She was certified in lymphatic drainage (CLT) in 2016. The exploration of Neural Reset Therapy and Quantum Alignment Technique has been another focus of Eva's work.

Core Synchronism and Craniosacral Approaches

Studying under Robert Stevens, founder of Core Synchronism, Eva received certification in Core Synchronism in 2009, in which she is trained up to Level 7 (2013/2015) even as she continues to study under her mentor. This modality is foundational for her work though she continues to explore how other craniosacral models (Upledger/Peirsman among others) interact with the cerebrospinal fluid.
Eva is featured in an article by Emily Rapp about Core Synchronism in the February 2014 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine.

Somatic and Trauma-Informed Practices

Eva attended the 2021 Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy Certificate program with The Embody Lab. Somatics has become a particular area of interest which is accessible within the scope of practice in all modalities Eva uses. Fascial unwinding movement based on Anatomy Trains, Feldenkrais, and the Alexander Technique are among the systems she has been exploring. Somatics also informs her writing.*

Classical Homeopathy

Eva received her certification in Classical Homeopathy in April, 2013 from the Homeopathy School International in Boulder. She has been interested in homeopathy since 1997 when her first child was born and began formal training the end of 2010.

She regularly taught the Introduction to Homeopathy class at the New Mexico School of Natural Therapeutics from 2013 to 2018. Eva has studied the Böninghausen Repertory, Dr. Divya Chhabra's Leap to the Simillimum method, Sankaran's Sensation method, Predictive Homeopathy, and Dr. Joshis' MAP system. The study of Dr. Sehgal's Revolutionized Homeopathy method is adding interesting insights for for a more direct case taking form which focuses on the current mental and emotional state of the client. Working with the negative effects of environmental toxins is another area of interest, which is supported well by manual work.

Eva takes cases in both English and German.
Eva works with clients of all ages.

Learning Design and Educational Consultancy

With an MA in Organization, Information & Learning Sciences (OILS) from the University of New Mexico, Eva offers services as an instructional design consultant for complementary healthcare and wellbeing workshops.

Her background in the performing arts, the humanities, and learning sciences uniquely situates her to think about learner context, prior knowledge, and learner activation. A commitment to promoting Narrative Medicine principles and somatic exploration for both facilitators and learners informs her design as much as her bodywork.

Example of Learning Design from Eva's Capstone Project in OILS

Introduction to Homeopathy: This modular workshop content I have created using science-backed learning theory around instructional strategies for learner-centered engagement, allows participants to take a somatic journey mapping their personal blueprint, tying the application of homeopathy principles to their lived experience, and providing the tools to knowledgeably use a few homeopathic remedies for minor issues, as well as understanding the principles of homeopathy to start on the journey of wellbeing exploration.

This course can be adapted to address different cohorts from newbie parents to dancers/movers and mature audiences. I am passionate about building community and sharing different ways of thinking about and living wellbeing for societal transformation. It takes a village to raise and maintain us all.
