  • Connecticut Sotai Revisited by Bob Quinn
    Connecticut Sotai Revisited by Bob Quinn In NAJOM Volume 12 Number 33 (March 2005) I told the story of visiting Sotai teacher Peter Guy Thompson in his Connecticut clinic in the fall of 2004 and my subsequent study with him in Boston a few months later. Since that time I have returned to his clinic a number of times, on each occasion bringing with me family members for him to work on as I watched. I recently returned again to Hampton, CT where Peter practices from a clinic in the basement of his home. This time I went alone with three missions: I wanted to treat both Peter and his wife Akiko, I wanted to get a treatment myself, and I wanted to express to Peter my gratitude for teaching me his way of practicing Sotai. In the over five years since I studied with him in Boston I have had the chance to put into practice what he showed me, and on my own behalf and that of my patients I wanted to thank him. I believe that my practice follows Peter’s treatment flow more than that of anyone else I have studied with, though I do also incorporate elements of Meridian Therapy, Jeffrey Dann’s Koshi Balancing, and Dr. Manaka’s Yin-Yang Channel Balancing style as well. I had him schedule me at the end of the day so that I could give both him and Akiko treatments. After that I was invited to stay for a dinner of the most delicious Japanese food, and the three of us had great conversations for hours in Peter’s tiki bar room.
