Cranio Sacral Reflexology by world renown Dr. Martine Faure-Alderson
. . .
Cranio sacral is the name given to the approach to osteopathy developed by Dr Sutherland 100 years ago. He saw how the bone structure of the skull permitted slight motion and noted that restriction of normal motion due to injury, trauma or disease could affect health. The cranial osteopath works gently with the bones in the skull and associated bodily systems to remedy such conditions.
The Reflexologist can achieve the same result by combining an understanding of cranio-sacral therapy with conventional reflexology, since the bones of the feet reflect the skull and sacrum exactly. ( refresher rates available)

Dr. Faure-Alderson has Institutes in Paris, England and teaches all over the world.

Channelled through Geoffrey Hoppe of the Crimson Circle, Ascended Master Adamus Saint Germain will be teaching us how to bring "new energy" into our lives and work with it in a very real and practical way. This will involve working with the physics and consciousness of "new energy" that doesn't react like "old energy." The Crimson Council of Angels has been developing the content for the past 300 years and now is the time to bring it to earth. This will be a hands on, experiential weekend that goes beyond the mind and works interdimensionally.
