Since then she has used the Arvigo techniques in her practice of holistic therapies in New York. A certified practitioner as well as a self-care and professional-level teacher of the Arvigo therapies, Cathy continues her studies with Rosita to support and continue the healing work that the ancient teachings have provided.
