Rose Volpe

By: Deanna Fitzpatrick

While attending a conference in Oregon in 2007, Rose Volpe came across a flyer about a trip to see a healer in Brazil referred to as John of God, or Joao Teixeira de Faria. She felt very drawn to what she read, and decided to experience it firsthand.  Many patients of the healer claim to have experienced full healings from the work done by de Faria.

In 1991, de Faria traveled to Peru and worked on over 20,000 people, including the President of Brazil who suffered with atrophy of the hands, and his son who had a mental disorder. In gratitude, de Faria was awarded a Peruvian medal of honor. He has treated Shirley Maclaine and the author and spiritual teacher Ram Dass. He travels on his days off to other parts of Brazil and may treat tens of thousands of people at a time. He also makes an annual visit to the popular Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, N.Y., where thousands travel across the country to experience his healing abilities.

Volpe had been suffering from Crohn’s disease most of her life and had undergone surgery and procedures that left her feeling energetically and physically depleted. Her trip the Casa de Dom Ignacio de Loyola in Brazil lasted 10 days and opened her to new experiences with the renowned healer.

Volpe’s time in Brazil led her to feeling more fully healed.

“I came home after the healing and was able to eat things I had not been able to eat in years,” she said. “I could have dairy again and proteins like meat. I was also able to eat spicy hot foods again. I could tell my food was digesting better.”

One thing she noticed on her trips to the Casa was the use of crystal beds. Volpe had been interested in the healing and energetic connection of minerals and crystals. de Faria used the beds at the Casa to cleanse, balance and clear the energetic system of the body, also known as chakras.

The client lies fully clothed on a massage table while gentle music plays near by. Crystals are suspended over the individual while energy and light is positioned over each of the corresponding chakras. The process uses vibration, light, color, sound and intention to assist individuals with their own desire to heal.

After experiencing the healing energy of the crystal bed, Volpe knew she could share the same beneficial healing energy with others. Volpe’s goal is “to reach as many people as possible with the John of God crystal bed so they can attain a balance of mind, body and spirit”.

Sessions with the crystal bed are available at both Alternative Therapy locations.

Testimonial:
In June 2009, I heard of Rosie Volpe’s John of God crystal bed through the Holistic Nurses Association. Since I have been involved with natural healing methods and spiritual growth for many years, I was intrigued by the opportunity to try something new. I went into the session with no expectations. Rosie had me lie down on a massage table with an eye pillow, some soft music playing, and the crystals shining down over my body. Almost instantly, I had the most profound spiritual experience of my life. I can only say that was transformational. I have had three more sessions, each one different. It is exciting for me to see where these experiences will take me on my life’s journey.
