This 'hands-on' workshop will guide you through these techniques as well as teaching you how to intuitively work with stones using the guiding principles of Love-based healing.

Mike Legge began presenting his theories on healing music at the “First International Conference on Music in Human Adaptation” in Roanoke, Virginia, 1997. He has since spoken at the plenary session of the Pavlovian Society and also at the Baptist Cancer Institute, Jacksonville, FL. Some of his work has been published in “IEEE Engineering In Medicine And Biology Magazine” and also by Virginia Polytechnic Institute.

Mike holds a Master of Arts Degree in Music Composition. He studied classical guitar under David Harris and jazz guitar under Joe Cinderella. He is also a certified hypnotherapist.

He is presently a Research Scientist with the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services and has a private practice where he practices hypnotherapy and the Legge Method music therapy. Along with co-founder Nicolette Schwartzman L.Ac., he teaches the Legge Method to practitioners.

Mike’s topic is The Legge Method of Allergy Elimination (LMAE).  There are twelve organs in Chinese Medicine and there are twelve keys in  music theory.  Thanks to documentation in the “Yi-Ching Music For Health” healing music album I was able to map out the healing keys for patients based on voice tone.

Kinesiology is used to test for voice tone.  The voice does oscillate but there is a primary tone that can be isolated.  Once the voice tone is determined, the patient’s tonal system is mapped.  Further testing is done to determine allergies.  For instance, if the patient tests weak for garlic then the garlic or homeopathic preparation will be put in circuit with the patient as he/she listens to the healing music.  After listening the patient is desensitized to the allergen.

Whatever the patient’s complaint is, for that treatment there is one key that needs to be heard in musical composition; Kinesiology testing will determine that key.  Kinesiology testing is further used to decide time signature (3/4 or 4/4 time) and which non-harmonic tones need to be present in the healing music.

Musical Note: Since any one scale has seven tones there are five non-harmonic tones from which to choose.  The healing music I composed are in two layers—tonal with one non-harmonic tone—and tonal with two non-harmonic tones.  These layers are available in all twelve keys both ¾ and 4/4 time (360 healing music compositions).

Bonnie Marianna Niebauer EFT-ADV, CH, LMT, NCTMB has been a healing arts practitioner for more than 16 years.  She is a massage therapist, licensed by the Ohio Medical Board, Certified Hypntherapist, Emotional Freedom Techniques practitioner and producer of EFT CDs.

Learn how to take out the “emotional garbage,” replace it with the juicy stuff of life and really LIVE!  Achieve levels of peach that seemed impossible.  Emotional Freedom Techniques produces measurable changes.

Richard Rossiter, a certified Advanced Rolfer, developed the Rossiter System, a series of more than 100 powerful two-person stretching techniques, to help clients prevent and alleviate pain quickly and to help therapists relieve the strain on their own bodies.  His emphasis on active client involvement in loosening and elongating connective tissue from heal to toe, for a variety of  common pain-related problems, is featured in his latest book, Surgery Sucks!!!!  Fix Your Body Without Needles, Scalpels, ‘Scopes, Lasers  or Other Sharp Stuff. 

Richard’s talk, The Rossiter System: Unlocking the Body’s Pain, Unlocking the Power of the Foot mixes minimal but ground breaking philosophies about the role of connective in creating, preventing and relieving pain in a lively program that’s also filled with hands-on, interactive demonstrations of his powerful Rossiter System  two-person stretching techniques.  Get ready to stretch as you’ve never stretched before!

Richard Simmons, MD received his doctorate from Case Western Reserve University and interned at the University of Colorado Medical Center in Denver.  He served as a Flight Surgeon in the United States Navy.  Dr. Simmons served an ophthalmology residency at Georgetown University in the District of Columbia and as a fellow in Pediactric Ophthalmology at the National Children’s Medical Center in DC.  He practices in Columbus and Worthington, Ohio. 

Dr. Simmons’ talk is Let The Healing Begin (With You).  The basic premise is that in order to be an effective healer, we must have our own act together, not just cognitively but emotionally.  The extent to which we love ourselves will determine how much love (compassion) we can give to our clients.  The lecture will cover this basic concept followed by a 45 minute experiential exercise in groups of four.  We only “know” what we experience.
