About the Author

Benita Kropman is a physiotherapist with over four decades of clinical experience. She began developing the Lyno Method in South Africa in 1996 while working with professional athletes, aiming to uncover the root causes of chronic and recurring injuries. Her work led her from fascia release to exploring how nervous system dysregulation drives fascia restrictions and chronic symptoms. In 2010, she developed the Lyno certification course and established the Lyno Academy, offering the practical course in South Africa before expanding it to the UK, Germany, South Korea, and India. The course is CPD-accredited worldwide. Benita now lives in Dubai, where she continues to teach and work with clients in her private Lyno practice.
