About Me

I am Irene Diamond, the founder of The Diamond Method. The Diamond Method is non-surgical, non-invasive, fast-acting, efficient and effective.

The client is an active participant in Active Modulation Therapy® (AMT) and Diamond Active Massage™ (DAM), contracting muscles, moving joints, and fully aware and conversing with their therapist while receiving the manual myofascial massage.

We refer to this approach as “Inside Out” because the client is not asleep on the table, but in fact, actively involved through awareness, attention, and participation.

The change comes from their brain’s ability to send signals to their body — the opposite of the therapists “pushing” and “pulling” trying to make the tissue relax and change mechanically.

Active Modulation Therapy and Diamond Active Massage are completely new and unique approaches from anything you’ve experienced before, because you, the client, are actively participating in co-creating your results.

Both therapies are appropriate for fibromyalgia, myofascial pain, migraine, and more complex orthopedic concerns, in addition to reducing stress and tension, and improving performance and mobility.

Our 7-Step DIAMOND Success System is incorporated in each session to create profound results.

Diamond Active Massage and Active Modulation Therapy are sought-after modalities.

In fact, many expert teachers and educators in the wellness and therapy profession also now incorporating this client-active approach into their own teachings and practices.

Created by Irene Diamond, R.T., an exercise and movement specialist as a result of a spinal cord accident that left her paralyzed from the neck down.
