Charles T. Krebs began his professional
career with a PhD in Biology & Physiology from Boston University.
After teaching marine biology and neuroanatomy for a number of years at St.
Mary's College in Maryland, in 1983 he moved to Australia as a Marine
Research Scientist at the Marine Sciences Laboratory in Queenscliff,
Victoria. Shortly after his move, a near fatal scuba diving accident
left him paralyzed from the waist down and opened the door to a new
chapter in his life. Through his knowledge of anatomy and physiology
and his ability to move Ch’i with his mind from years of martial arts
training, he learned to walk again. He went on to be Principal
Research Scientist, Head of Water Quality Laboratory Environmental Protection
Authority of Victoria from 1985 to 1988.
During his period of recovery he sought
alternative and complementary therapies to help him walk better, including
massage, chiropractic, osteopathy, homeopathy, naturopathy, acupuncture,
and even Filipino Faith Healing. Kinesiology, a form of direct muscle
biofeedback, helped him the most. Completely fascinated by this technique,
he spent the next 5 years learning everything he could about energy
medicine. In 1988 he resigned from the EPA to take up this
work full time. He spent time in the US studying Applied Physiology,
a physiologically based form of kinesiology, and upon his return to Australia
in 1989 he opened an Applied Physiology clinic, Melbourne Applied
Physiology, and was its Director from 1991 until his move to the
Lydian Center in 2009.
Starting in 1985, Charles began working
with clinical psychologists, speech pathologists, neurologists and other
health professionals to develop the Learning Enhancement Acupressure
Program (LEAP), a program for the correction of most learning problems.
He researches, teaches and lectures internationally on LEAP, kinesiology,
anatomy and physiology, and neurology. Charles is the author of two books
in English, A Revolutionary Way of Thinking: From a Near Fatal Accident
to a new Science of Healing, and Nutrition for the Brain:
Feeding your Brain for Optimum Performance, as well as four books
in German: Lernsprunge, Hintergründe, Emotionale Kontrol
der Muskeltestet and Nährstoffe für ein Leitungsfahiges Gehirn.
Alles, was Sie Wissen Müssen.
