CLINICIAN FOR 30 YEARS, 30.000+ HOURS

Dr. Couturier has been a busy clinician since 1994: She has been practicing in Palm Beach County for 28 years. 

Under some of the most challenging conditions, patients worldwide who could not find help elsewhere have found the resolution, excellent health, regained quality of life, and happiness in their work with Dr. Cloe Couturier and CranioSacral with Qigong.

This is because of the quality of her unique skills, her intellect, compassion for understanding and promoting our inherent gifts of healing, and her years of education and experience training under world-renowned masters. 

MOTHERHOOD AND ST. DORIAN

She has had many brilliant teachers, masters, and innovators in their fields. But she finds the truest testament to these practices in the life of her most outstanding teacher, her son, Dorian R. Kallen. Her journey would be prompted when she was told by a neurologist who diagnosed Dorian at 4 years old with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy that there was no cure for this condition and that he would not be expected to live past his teens.

Dorian lived to be 33 after living his happiest, healthiest, and most prosperous life, surrounded by people who loved him deeply. Through her relationship with her son Dorian and her  daughter Kassandre as a single mother, Dr. Couturier learned daily how precious life is, that it can be short, and how it is meant to be lived and appreciated to its fullest. She feels there can be no more powerful lesson, as every moment is a miracle and a blessing with which we ought to be continuously grateful and engaged. After Dorian's passing, spontaneously people who knew Dorian well started referring him as "Saint-Dorian". Dr. Couturier tells about Saint-Dorian in her book: “CranioSacralQigong. Vol.1. Pathways To Consciousness Power.”

Dr. Couturier is very close to her daughter Kassandre Ann Grossman, and son in-law Wade Alex Grossman. Kassandre has always been a bastion in the family, facilitating the motion when motion was most restricted, while giving it strength when strength was fading away. 

CRANIOSACRALQIGONG

The practice of CranioSacralQigong® evolved from meeting her personal needs first as a mother, caregiver, and practitioner for her son and also for her clients and students. 

Dr. Couturier continues the great privilege of working with families of three generations, witnessing the power and evolution of her unique practice of CranioSacral with Qigong and how people adopt and apply it to their health and wellness and their lives over the generations.

Dr. Cloe Couturier continues to further develop CranioSacralQigong®. She was promoted as an Advanced Qigong Instructor and Integrative Practitioner, from the NQA.org. Dr. Cloe Couturier is the first developer of CranioSacralQigong. She presented her work on the importance on combining Craniosacral with Qigong for the first time in 1997, at The Second World Congress, which was The First American World Congress on Qigong. 

Dr. Couturier obtained her Medical Qigong Doctorate after completing a research on implementing Qigong to her Craniosacral Practice, in 2015.

She is the author of: “CranioSacralQigong, Vol.1 Pathways To Consciousness Power”. 

Book is available at The Harvard Book Store and other book stores.
