What is the Metamorphic Technique®
Metamorphic Technique is a very simple approach to people, a kind of ritual performed by practitioners to meet the yearning for transformation of the people who come to see them.
​
The hunger for food will make you go to the kitchen and prepare a meal or go to a restaurant. The ritual of eating is meeting the hunger for food. However, what is most important is what happens later when the energy of the body transforms the energy of the food into itself. If the transformation is not done, of course we would die. Though the ritual has its role to play, it is not so important in terms of transforming the food.
​
The yearning for transformation pushes people to receive sessions in the Metamorphic Technique. The practitioner provides the environment to meet the yearning. People’s life force transforms their patterns, releasing the potential of self-healing within them.
​
At the physical level, the practitioners will touch specific areas of the feet, hands and heads of the people who come to see them, creating an environment that is free of direction wherein the power of life of the people can move in the way that is right for them.
​
During the sessions, at a more subtle level, the practitioners will act as catalysts, like the earth is a catalyst for the seed. As such they must stay out of the way, practising detachment, which is defined as noticing the facts, acknowledging their presence and letting them be. People’s innate intelligence guides their life force towards release of patterns, problems and difficulties, towards the realisation of their potential.
​
People from all walks of life, as well as seriously ill people and young babies may receive sessions. The life force does what is necessary.

Sessions
Safe and suitable for anyone
Metamorphic Technique® sessions are suitable and safe for adults, children or babies and can also be offered to pets and other animals. There are no contraindications and whilst our work is not therapeutic, it may be offered alongside therapeutic and medical care.
​
In the practice of Metamorphic Technique® we use light and gentle touch on specific areas of the feet, hands and head whilst at the same time paying attention to 'stay out of the way' of the person receiving the session.
For this reason, the founder, Gaston Saint-Pierre, defined the Technique as a practice of Detachment, which for us means providing the person who comes for a session with an environment free from direction, interference, judgement and preconceived ideas.
​
We can share a sense of the Metamorphic Technique® by looking at how life expresses itself in nature. How does an acorn know how to grow into an oak tree or a caterpillar into a butterfly?
The acorn and the caterpillar hold this knowledge deep within themselves. There is an intelligence and power at work that facilitates the potential of both the acorn and the caterpillar, transforming them into new life forms. And in the same way, the form of life that we currently experience can also express itself in different ways and even more enriching forms.
