Metamorphic Technique

What is the Metamorphic Technique?

The Metamorphic Technique is concerned with change and transformation. Change can occur on a number of different levels - physical, mental, emotional and behavioural - the Metamorphic Technique is a tool for personal change and transformation. In some cases changes are immediately noticeable, while in others they are more subtle. These changes can range from significant improvements in physical, mental or emotional health to general feelings of having more energy and confidence, releasing old habits or gradually letting go of past hurts.

The technique involves a light touch on the spinal reflexes of the feet, hands, and head, with the whole session lasting about 60 minutes.  During the session you can either talk, or choose to quietly relax. A safe, relaxing space is provided where you can ‘just be’. Use of the technique enables us to move from feelings of limitation towards accessing more of our potential. It is not concerned with addressing specific symptoms or problems. It is not a massage or even a healing. There is no diagnosis or physical manipulation.  A light non-invasive touch using just thumbs and fingers is used and the experience will be gentle, pleasant, relaxing and undemanding.

 

"Metamorphosis ~ a passing from one form or shape into another ; transfiguration; a striking change in appearance or character or circumstances."

We all have great potential, but due to limiting beliefs that we hold about ourselves and our lives, we tend to get ourselves caught in particular patterns that keep us from fully realising that potential. The Metamorphic Technique helps us to help ourselves. It allows our own life energy to begin the work of transformation, which happens unconsciously, automatically, naturally, and without effort. The Metamorphic Technique acts as a catalyst to this energy (or life force), gently enabling you to transform ingrained patterns of thought and behaviour. You may then cope with situations in life in a more positive way. Patterns transform and changes happen, enabling you to better realise your potential


People are often drawn to the Metamorphic Technique during periods of transition or difficulty – whether it be bereavement, illness, divorce, career change, moving home, or simply seeking to move forward creatively. You may feel at a crossroads or 'stuck' in your life.  Many find they cope better in these periods. Some may wish to make deep inner changes without having to analyse the past, others find that they are able to deal with stressful situations more effectively.

Who can benefit?

Metamorphic Technique is suitable for anyone, of any age. Children love it! It is safe if you are well and strong, ill or dying. People with all kinds of disabilities can enjoy receiving sessions. It is safe to receive in conjunction with conventional medicine or complementary therapies.  It is fine for pregnant women to have sessions, and the unborn child can benefit too. There is no need for the practitioner to know about your personal or medical history, although you are free to talk about these if it is what you want.

Much of this explanation is drawn from the websites of the Metamorphic Association, and of the founder of the technique, www.gastonsaintpierre.org.uk You can find more information on the technique, training, and so on, on these websites.
