The healing capabilities of dolphins have long been speculated upon—particularly relating to the high ultrasonic frequencies they emit. In this episode of The ABMP Podcast, Darren and Angie are joined by Kate Mackinnon to discuss Kate’s recent trip to the Bahamas to take part in dolphin-assisted craniosacral therapy, what the experience is like for herself and her clients, and how this program influences the work she does back home.

A healing arts practitioner specializing in craniosacral therapy, Kate Mackinnon has more than three decades of experience in mainstream and complementary medicine, along with the wisdom gained from many wonderful teachers throughout her career, including Dr. Wayne Dyer. She authored From My Hands and Heart: Achieving Health and Balance with Craniosacral Therapy and co-authored Elements of a Successful Therapeutic Business. Find out more at www.kmackinnon.com.
