our team

We are manual therapists who spend our days working with the human body—understanding its resilience, witnessing its capacity to heal, and honoring the stories it carries. Through our clinical work in manual therapy, massage therapy, and bodywork, we've learned that the body remembers trauma, holds tension from injustice, and physically manifests the stress of living in an unjust world. We've also seen its remarkable ability to recover, adapt, and persist.

​

This dual awareness—of both physical and social healing—led us to Human Factor Publishing. We believe that just as the body requires proper support, alignment, and care to function optimally, so too does our collective humanity require attention, maintenance, and intentional practice. Our professional training taught us about human factors in the ergonomic sense: how bodies interact with their environment, what they need to thrive, and how small interventions can prevent larger breakdowns. We've applied that same lens to human rights: recognizing that dignity, compassion, and solidarity aren't abstract ideals but daily practices that require consistent attention and care.

​

Through these notebooks, we channel our commitment to both forms of human wellbeing—creating tools that support your daily life while keeping you connected to the larger work of building a more just and compassionate world. We understand resilience not as an abstract concept but as something we witness and support every day, both in treatment rooms and in the stories of those we honor through our publications.
