  - D. Angel Reyes-Gaicalone: Acutonics and Auricular Acupunture - Acutonics is a system of energetic medicine that uses tuning forks of various frequencies to access and transform the body’s energetic system. It is a deeply harmonic approach that is based on sound vibration. This unique modality integrates the ancient Taoist teachings about the meridians, pre-meridians, and the immaterial body with the knowledge of Oriental Medicine, Cosmological Studies, Depth Psychology, Contemporary Science, and Sound Healing principals. Auricular Acupunture - Auricular acupuncture is based on a microsystem, where specific points on the ear are used to treat conditions anywhere on the body – similar to the way reflexology is used on the foot. These ear points correspond with internal organs, systems, or body parts.
  - Debbie Gaudet: Neurofeedback / NeurOptimal® / Biofeedback -Biofeedback is a technique to help you learn to become aware of internal functions normally outside of conscious control. You learn this with the help of sensitive instruments that help you become aware of things that you can’t easily feel or detect on your own.
