What is Creative Healing?

Creative Healing is a gentle but effective type of body work that has the focus of bringing the body to normalcy. It is specific massage techniques that are intended to be applied for specific problems.

Following are the four basic principals which Mr. Stephenson based all the applications of his work on the body.

Maintain Normal Temperature

To maintain normal body temperature it may be necessary to remove or add heat using your hands.

Break up Congestion

This is done by the "breaking up" movement performed using a circular motion of the fingers. The surface tissue contacted moves with the fingers as they move. This creates a penetrating action and though it is performed very gently the effect breaks up and disperses internal congestion.

Replace Substance

Example: replacing substance "between" the vertebrae.

Create a vacuum

The principle of creating a vacuum is frequently used to establish drainage from congested areas.

	These simple principals are used in all of the 318 treatments that are in the textbook.

"Creative Healing has done a world of good for my practice. People seem to be amazed by my knowledge of the body... how it all works together. I have never been so inspired by someone's teaching and smiles. Becky and Brenda are the greatest! Its well worth your time and money. It's the best knowledge I have learned - mind body and soul. I feel I have made a friend forever".

April Prosser, LMT and Creative Healing graduate

"I love Creative Healing. It has given me the confidence to work on the many problems that a massage therapist is faced with on a daily basis. I have seen its benefits within myself and my family and I can't wait to put it to work for others. The work is very gentle and easy to perform. It makes perfect sense and gives you a greater understanding of how problems arise and how to keep them from reoccurring.

Creative Healing has been my passion and my work for over 35 years. It is as relevant today as it was when Joseph B. Stephenson envisioned it many decades ago. I urge those of you who are Creative Healers or who have benefited from it to continue to do it and promote it.
