Over the last 12 years Blue Sky Therapies has funded independent Autism Research.
This includes individual therapeutic work , training and consulting for schools and therapy centres for children with special needs. Many of these organisations are founded on Rudolf Steiner's therapeutic and pedagogical philosophy.
In March 2017 we were invited to New York University to present 10 yrs of our Autism Research - and In FEB 2018 our first book was published
Autism : Meet me who I am ( interview on you tube below)
In our physio clinic we incorporate the best evidence-based practice with our unique holistic approach which recognises the whole person. With an established and strong reputation of 12 years we are the leading practice in Katherine.
Michael is also a qualified TaKeTiNa Rhythm teacher and offers workshops regularly in this meditative and deeply embodying movement form. TaKeTiNa has undergone research in Europe demonstrating an ability to improve chronic pain states.
IN 2015, we were asked to support a 'Steiner inspired' approach for infants and children in remote NT Indigenous community creches.
