Dr Robert T. Jaffe, M.D. is the founder of the School of Energy Mastery and Energy Mastery Seminars. He is the head of the American Shadhiliyya Sufi Order and is a practising physician, holistic doctor, and clairvoyant healer.

He is also licensed by the Arizona Homeopathic Medical Board as a Homeopathic Medical doctor and has studied both classical and electro-diagnostic homoeopathy.

After being stricken with a severe eye ailment and nearly losing his sight, he did intensive research on how emotional and psychological issues alter the human energy field and cause disease. Through this research, he was able to regain his sight and develop the system of Advanced Energy Healing. Later, as his clairvoyant vision opened naturally, he developed the Awareness Release Technique, a spiritual and energetic approach to healing which has become the foundation of his School of Energy Mastery.

The Upledger Institute International, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida – Craniosacral Osteopathy Certification Program

The Upledger Institute, Inc. ® CranioSacral Therapy certification program is designed to bring therapists trained in UII CranioSacral Therapy (CST) recognition for their knowledge and skill in this therapeutic modality.

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) was pioneered and developed by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger following extensive scientific studies from 1975 to 1983 at Michigan State University, where he served as a clinical researcher and Professor of Biomechanics.

CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system – comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.

By complementing the body’s natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction.

Somatic Bodywork for Trauma – The Upledger Institute International, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida – Craniosacral Osteopathy Certification Program 

SomatoEmotional Release™ (SER) is a therapeutic process that uses and expands on the principles of CST to help a person rid their body of the residual effects of past injuries and negative experiences. SER is based on university research conducted by osteopathic physician John E. Upledger and biophysicist Zvi Karni. 

SER facilitates a gentle process for releasing tissue memory, thereby helping the person to decrease the adverse effects of past traumas. There is vast research to show that a change in physical health is accompanied by a change in mental health, and it is equally documented that the reverse is apparent. SER is a holistic mind-body somatic approach that may also assist a person in gaining insight as to how that held trauma is influencing their physical and emotional health. SER can support the person’s transition from dysfunction and unresolved issues toward wellness and optimal function.
