Our Programs

The Phase courses are set upon the therapeutic powers of the Dynamic Stillness, the Breath of Life, the Tidal Potency, Fluids and other Natural Laws at work generating and supporting Life.  Techniques and teaching will be taught in full cooperation with the composite of the Living Mechanism and its intention within the moment. It is not about bones, or levers, or palpation. It is not about balanced membranous or ligamentous articular tension; these approaches are a different composite. It is about the Tide at work as the primary source of diagnosis and treatment, with no application of force to osteopathic lesions or psycho-emotional systems. The environment of the program is in the quiet of the Natural world with a dedicated teacher passing along the oral tradition of Osteopathy to small groups of participants.

Phases I-IX

The Pediatrics courses are designed in a very unique way so that people with no prior experience in Osteopathy in the Cranial Field can begin to safely and effectively treat the most common of childhood conditions. This curriculum is not about the bones, it does not involve direct or indirect action and is a very intense curriculum that begins with the whole child as an initial sensory experience and continues through multiple phases towards the capacity to use direct action when and if needed.

Pediatrics Phase 1 – Children should not be treated like Adults, Learning to be centered by the Child, Osteopathic Perception to treat Children, Wholeness of the child, The meeting place, treating the moving child

Pediatrics Phase 2 – Listening to the Child, Fluid Dynamics of children, Family Circle, Ignition, Thoracic Respiration and Breathing, CNS review, the third ventricle and the Attention in Autism

Pediatrics Phase 3 – The treatment of Autism, The Normal Child, first breath, Desert Neutral, Flame of Intention, Fine tuning, “Treat me like a New Born”

Pediatrics I-III

These programs are meant to further explore Osteopathic Principles and concepts from the Osteopath’s experiences of the Natural Laws at work under the direction of Primary Respiration. These programs have been designed by teachers that have trained with Dr. Jealous and/or have been working with Osteopathic studies for years. Each teacher will share what they have learned from the Tide about the indwelling healing forces in Nature at work in relationship to their particular topic, as is our Osteopathic tradition. Through this exploration of Osteopathic principles and acquiring knowledge of Nature’s healing forces, students will have the opportunity to ground their work on the firm foundation of Natural law.
