Praise for DDCSP

"I found that this class experience helped to fill a void I have felt in most of the energy modalities I have learned in the past 25 years. This course helped me to move deeper into my own experiences of grounding, filling up my energy container, and sharing energy (love) with these people on the massage table. It also has helped me discern what is my stuff and how to not project my stuff onto the client"

- Barbara Richter-Robinson, LMT

"As an ‘Advanced’ CST practitioner, I felt a new, deeper level of blending/melding with the patient. The course also was a profound reminder to slow down as a practitioner, and allow the process to unfold naturally. I am deeply grateful to Suzanne and the TA’s for facilitating my growth for a higher level of healing for my patients and myself."

- Richard Herstein

"After the 1st day of class, I gave my husband a mini cranio session. It was the best treatment I ever gave. I knew where a release was going to happen. I was able to feel everything with greater ease. As Joanna [Haymore, Instructor] said, ‘My hands felt more informed’.

"I can’t even put into words how that will impact the level of healing that my patients will receive."

- Barbara Mintz, AP
