Monk R, "Dr. Cleo Bludworth at SOTO-USA 'HOT' Conference"

An original member of Dr. Major Bertrand DeJarnette's first group of cranial instructors, “Dr. B” (aka Dr. Cleo Bludworth) has always gone beyond the status quo. A fascinating speaker, “Dr. B" has continued investigating how to best help humanity find an "answer" to dysfunction and disease. Whether it is craniopathy, energetic healing, personalysis, acoustical vibrational balancing, or posture, “Dr. B" has been at the forefront. We were honored and privileged to have “Dr. B” present some of the results of his investigations and developments in San Diego.........

“All direction is curved; all motion is spiral; and wherever there is a right, there will be a left, coming the other way”.

These three statements began Dr. Cleo Bludworth’s fascinating presentation of energy and bodywork at SOTO-USA’s first “HOT” Conference in San Diego.

“Dr. B.”offered a beautifully illustrated audio-visual presentation demonstrating that bodily energy travels in pathways around and through the body (like a magnet), as well as centering around 7 energy centers (called chakras). He explained that “Energy (Universal Intelligence) comes from the Universe to us (Innate Intelligence) through the Auras and Chakras. The chakras are “transducers” of that “Universal” energy into “Innate”. When balanced, that energy travels by way of the C.S.F. to the brain wherein it influences the synchronisation of the skull bones, the meninges, the Dura and the two hemispheres, which in turn, control the two halves of the bodies muscular system. Any distortion of this energy affects the C.S.F. and the skull bones, thus disturbing the balance between the brain hemispheres, and the muscle balance of the two sides of the body. The distorted energy thus results in imbalance in the muscles of the spine, which result in one or more subluxations, - which lead to spinal adaptations and pelvic distortion, - interpreted as the Categories. “

We are all beings of both energy and matter, descendants of the original energy which formed the universe. Our physical bodies are merely energy which has been reorganized into physical form. Dr. Bludworth asserted that by concentrating our efforts on the physical manifestation rather than the energy pattern, 95-99% of our efforts are mis-guided and unnecessary. He pointed out that “subluxation is not a cause, rather it is an adaptation to a deeper earlier distortion of energy. It is an indication of imbalance between the two halves of the body.”

“Until we decide that the only effective way forward is to go back, back beyond technique and behind the subluxation to address prior disturbances of energy (which create subluxations), we impede progress. I believe that we have failed to go back far enough into the origins of these disturbances of energies.”

He pointed out that we are often myopically obsessed with “getting a bone to move” when the obstruction may be “energetic,” not “osseous.” By focusing on the movement of a single bone, we lose sight of the bigger picture. “The more effective way forward therefore lies in the restoration of normal energy flow through the chakras and auras. I have come to believe that the origin of imbalances lies at a frequency level and more importantly so does the treatment.” For example, attempting to work on the facial bones before correcting the spheno-basilar is not only wasted effort, it causes the body to adapt “to” instead of adapt “with,” resulting in the possibility of more damage later. He suggested that if we instead concentrate our efforts on balancing the body’s energy we can get ALL the bones to move with a single adjustment.

“There is only one cause of headaches, however there are many different TYPES of causes: lack of circulation of energy in the proper way, at the proper place, at the proper time.”

Dr. Bludworth does not treat headaches, per se. Instead he treats the whole person. For the sake of illustration, however, he did present an example of his technique for the conference attendees. He illustrated that by facilitating the spiral energy motion of the chakras (either in a clockwise or counter-clockwise fashion) one could restore balance with a single correction. As an example, he demonstrated a spheno-basilar correction using a single,gentle, spiraling gesture of his fingers to the palate resulting in an immediate strengthening of all muscles on therapy localization.

Dr.Rosen, who received the adjustment, reported the following: “Personally I found the process very strange. Dr. B's energy was quite focused and even before he touched me I felt a very unexpected emotional response. I also had a fairly dramatic response in that the sciatic pain I had been experiencing for about a week disappeared for about three days. On another level I felt very out of balance, disoriented and quite anxious. The interesting thing about the whole process was that since that day I have been experiencing a sense of clarity and calm which I have not experienced for some time.”

Note: Dr.”B” has established the The B’Institut for the purpose of sharing his knowledge with the world. It offers the Chiropractic profession an insight into the understanding of frequencies thereby moving our focus beyond technique, back to the origins, the basis of health and disease. It offers courses in: PersonAlysis, Body Balance Therapy, Chiropractic Acoustics. For full details of the Courses offered at the B’Institut, tuned into the SOTO web page for forthcoming details.
