MODALITIES THAT I PRACTICE
Over and above the modalities listed below, I am constantly updating and filling ‘my toolbox’ with other courses that don’t necessarily fit under a specific modality per se. These specific protocols expand the base of techniques that can be used to assist in attaining balance. The information around healing is vast and I love constantly reminding ourselves of the knowledge that we all hold within us – that we are infinitely capable of unbelievable things if we just look within and believe.
N.O.T
{Neural Organizational Technique}
The underlying philosophy of N.O.T., on the scientific level, is that in order to understand how our basic physiological functions work today, we must look to our primitive origins. We were after all, created to exist and survive in a hostile environment. Therefore, essentially everything we need for survival, with the exception of food, air and water, must be found within the body itself. It is a self-healing, self-regulating, self-perpetuating (replacing its own tissues) mechanism. These mechanisms, by their very nature, must be inborn or innate, integrated and fully automatic from the very beginning of life. Physical or emotional trauma and poor diet can disturb these automatic functions. N.O.T. has been found to be a key to understanding many of these relationships.
In 1979, Dr Ferreri recognized the importance of the survival systems of feeding; fight/flight/fright; reproduction; and the limbic/immune systems of the human body. He recognized that there was neurological priority in the way the body worked. He began to explore this concept very deeply and developed the programs that are the blueprint of the body’s neurology.
SIPS Levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6
{STRESS INDICATOR POINT SYSTEM}
SIPS works on the physical, emotional, mental, etheric and electrical levels of the body to promote WHOLE body healing. It can be very effective for pain relief, working on specific areas of the body as well as identifying root causes of chronic illness, improving cognitive functioning, as well as improving learning difficulties and assisting with hormonal balance. Sips works with Chakras and their corresponding layer in the Auric Fields.
7 Chi Keys
This modality allows access to the chakras and helps identify and correct imbalances found. This modality allows us to access the matrix that works on the physical body, central and peripheral nervous systems as well as the endocrine systems, bringing about change in the physical, emotional, neurological, endocrine and metabolic aspects of the person.
Spine Physiology
Developed by Marco Rado, this modality focuses on the various aspects of the spinal column from a structural, postural and neurological point of view. Allowing diagnosis and treatment for not only the vertebra of the spine, but also the muscles and ligaments directly related to each vertebra.
Connectivology
Another incredible modality developed by Marco Rado, this modality brings in work on the tendino-muscle meridians, muscle chains, the luo meridians as well as a number of topics covering subconscious trauma release and unwinding.
Physiology of Stress
Dealing with how the body reacts to stress in each of its stages and the various neurological, endocrine, immune and emotion reactions, this modality allows one to identify the main stressor/s and find the best approach to balancing each stage. An integrative Psycho-Neuro-endocrine- Immunological approach to bringing the body into balance.
Basics of Life
This Modality written by Marco Rado, allows us to work on the living matrix through the 8 Extra Ordinary Meridians. The 8 Extraordinary Meridians are strictly related to the genetic code, fertilisation, embryological development, birth, growth and constitutions, they are on top of the energetic hierarchy and controls all the Meridians, all the organs and all the physiological functions. We use the Osteopathic Pivotes and the Unwinding techniques, with an integration between energetic, emotional and structural work and it is perfect for a body-oriented physiological and energetic treatment.
NEUROGASTROENTEROLOGY
{LEVELS 1, 2 & 3}
This modality, developed by Marco Rado, focuses essentially on gut health, the functions and malfunctions thereof. It looks at sympathetic, parasympathetic and the enteric nervous systems, and looks at what is known as our ‘second brain’ or our ‘gut brain’. integrating it with the energetic physiology of Chinese medicine. Focusing on the second brain, the digestive, immune and endocrine systems, food sensitivities, chronic and autoimmune diseases as well as somata-emotional work.
Emotional Kinesiology
Since emotion is said to be 80% of the underlying cause of disease, identifying and defusing issues surrounding emotions, thought and behaviour can have an enormous effect on our lives. Developed and written by Gudrun Lauterbach, widely acclaimed and respected Kinesiologist and teacher, this modality of kinesiology works deeply with the sub-conscious and conscious links that we make to survive. This modality identifies various personal patterns in life, exploring emotional contexts that influence one’s reaction in stressful situations. It helps clients make a conscious connection with how the “then” has a bearing on the “now”. Effective with fears, phobias, allergy defusions and severe stress reactions, compulsive behaviours and addictions as well as just coping in your every day life.
Touch For Health
This is the foundation of all applied kinesiology as we know it, developed by Dr John Thie in the 1970’s. Using up to 42 individual muscles to identify imbalances in a person’s organ meridian system, TFH’s simple yet effective balancing techniques improve posture, reduce physical and mental pain, tension and discomfort, and allows a person to attain set goals.
Learn 2 Learn
This modality focuses on identifying the various different styles and ways individuals approach learning, and process information from a neurological perspective. Since learning involves sight, sound, processing information and understanding the whole picture, at times we develop ways to compensate and cope when there are stressors associated with the process. L2L aims to identify and remove these stressors.
Scar Integration
We are so familiar with the concept that physical damage to our bodies requires time and healing, but we don’t always consider the impact of such injuries to our energetic fields. These disturbances can sometimes run deep. Using various balancing methods, scar integration, developed by Gudrun Lauterbach, aims to integrate said disturbances to our energetic fields, often having incredible results.
Neuro Training
Andrew Verity, an Australian Naturopath, Homeopath, Iridologist and Neuro-Linguistic Programming master, developed Neuro-training, a modality which integrates many natural therapies and techniques from Eastern and Western philosophies in a solution oriented process that helps train the nervous system into a new set of responses from the inside out.
NT aims to defuse restrictive patterns, habits, beliefs, emotions and behaviours, as well as identify and defuse inherited patterns / genetic references. Often these are suppressed as one feels one must simply ‘get on with it’ and survival is the only option. NT allows us to recuperate from life, not only re-act to it and our focus shifts to solutions and energy becomes channeled in positive expression.
