Behavioral Optometrist - I practice behavioral optometry in Rochester, New York using various approaches including Bates, Syntonic Color therapy, orthoptics, Pepper-Stress (attention and memory training), and various body therapies. I used the Bates approach to cure my -1.25 Diopters of myopia (in 1970) and presbyopia (a continuing process). I have worked with many Bates teachers including Charles Kelley, Meir Schneider and Janet Goodrich. I've lectured widely and written many articles about Bates and vision improvement including a Ph.D. dissertation called "A Psychoneurology of Nearsightedness." (1978) and two training manuals called: "Attention and Memory Training for Children" (1992) and "Fundamentals of Flow in Learning Music" (1994 - with Rebecca Penneys). | ||

| Meir Schneider PhD, LMT School for Self-Healing 1718 Taraval St San Fransisco CA 94116 USA Ph. 415 665 9574 email: |
Vision Teacher - Meir Schneider was born with
cataracts and other serious vision problems. After five
unsuccessful surgeries on the lenses of his eyes, which
left them shattered and filled with scar tissue, doctors
pronounced his condition hopeless and he was certified
legally blind. The boy performed his reading and
schoolwork in Braille. At age 17, Meir learned the Bates Method of eye exercises. He practiced them with a diligence that probably no one had ever applied to them before, up to 13 hours a day, undeterred by the skepticism of family and friends. Within six months, he could recognize visual objects for the first time; within 18 months, he could read print without glasses. His vision continued to improve, and today is 20/80. He has an unrestricted California driver's license. During his recovery process, while still a teenager, Meir began to help others with a wide range of degenerative conditions, such as polio, muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis. He found that the same principles which enabled him to gain functional eyesight could be applied to the entire body. His discoveries led to the creation of the Meir Schneider Self-Healing Method, which has helped more than 7,000 clients reverse the progress of serious disease conditions. An internationally known therapist and educator, Meir is the founder and director of the Center and School for Self-Healing in San Francisco, the author of Self-Healing: My Life and Vision and Meir Schneider's Miracle Eyesight Method, and the principal author of The Handbook of Self-Healing. He was awarded a PhD in the Healing Arts for his work with muscular dystrophy. |
