John-Matthew Upledger: Dr Upledger’s Unique Contribution: What it Means for Us Today & Tomorrow

John Matthew has been running the Upledger Institute Inc. for the best part of 25 years, in that time helping to bring his father’s work to the international stage. He will share the Institute’s current plans for development, highlights from the Beyond the Dura conference and take us to the leading edge of all that’s going on.

Stan Gerome: From Good to Great Dialoguing & the Difference it Makes

John-Matthew once introduced Stan as having been at the Institute longer than his father! Stan’s clarity in his practice and SER work draws strongly on psychosynthesis, and the work he has done shines through. Look forward to the elegance of his dialogue and some of the secrets that turn it from good to great.

Chas Perry: From Good to Great Dialoguing & the Difference it Makes

From his first meeting with CST nearly 40 years ago, Chas has felt aligned with the ethos and core values of the work. He has worked extensively with dolphin and intensive therapy programmes and brings a wealth of experience in body-mind healing to the table and to each client there-on! Try not to be inspired...

Carol McLellan: Why Women Welcome CST in the Journey of Pregnancy

Carol works extensively with this field and has developed the CST in pre-conception, pregnancy and birth workshop. She will share some of the amazing results she has seen from blending CST through the whole journey and, most importantly, how the greatest gift can be that which we learn from the babies themselves.

Ken Frey: You’ve Treated the Membranes, Now Reach Further... Into the Cranium

Ken has used CST since 1985 running a clinic in central New York. As a physio, some clients’ injuries drew him to work deeper in the cranuim and he has refined ways to treat various deeper structures. Learn more about how to get ever more precise should your work invite you further into the cranium and brain itself.
