INDIVIDUAL TREATMENT AND TEACHING IN CRANIO SACRAL THERAPY

First to do was to make arrangements for the teaching program. I would also like to have a contact person in each place that will be responsible for the CST-treatments and the teaching in the future. We would like the contact person to make groups for training when we leave.

The home nurses in Tibet Charity were the base for our work. They already have a good base with more education and they are a good team that can support each other. It is our hope that they can learn CST, in such a way that they can support the other groups we teach.

NyingTopLing : The contact person is fysiotherapist Tenzin Yankie. It was not possible for her to join the class in Tibet Charity or TCV, because she is responsible for a small child.
I gave treatments in her clinic and she participated in the treatments while learning. She was a good student. It will be beneficial for the handicapped students at NyingTopling, if she can continue the CST-treatments.The goal was to continue the Cranio Sacral Therapy (CST) Karin had started for the home-nurses in the spring time.

Another goal was to give CST to the children in TCV and to the handicapped students in NyingTopling in Norbulinka and to make a teaching program these places.

TCV ( Tibetan Children Village) Karin and I whent to TCV to ask if we could make a teaching program at TCV. The Director sent us  to the doctor at the TCV-hospital, and the doctor gave us the permission to work and teach. Here we also have a contact person: The nurse Sonam Palkyi. She contactet the children who needed treatment, and she and some from the staff in the baby-room at TCV. joined the treatments in CST.
One day Karin and I worked at the TCV-hospital with clients from there, and two other days  I also worked in the babyroom.
Karin gave treatments with acupuncture and CST in the Tibet Charity clinic. Most elder Tibetans suffer from pain in the knees and back because of arthritis.
We have started the Cranio Sacral education program, for nurses and massage therapists. All of them are good students and they will continue to train and practise CST in their groups until we come back next year.

In the babyroom I treated 5 children each day in three days, and the nurse participated and
sometimes one of the homemothers.

 In the end. The homenurses at Tibet charity also wanted to do art thearpy.

Bodil made an exercise with them that they could use for there own development.

As you can see they were very dedicated to the exercise

We thank for all the support and good will .

A letter from a volunteer vet

I am a veterinarian from Wisconsin , fortunate to have the opportunity to volunteer with my fiancé, Daniel Bocock, at the Tibet Charity Animal Care Section in McLeod Ganj.
This is my second summer with Tibet Charity and the experience is just as great again. It is fun to see all but one of the dogs I met and treated two years ago doing well and enjoying their community dog lives. Seeing the clinic and its mission continued and successful makes volunteering worthwhile and worth repeating.
During our stay with Tibet Charity we supported the ABC program of the clinic, which focuses on spay, neuter, and rabies vaccination. ABC has helped to control rabies and has significantly reduced and stabilized the population of street dogs in McLeod Ganj. In addition we treated injured and sick animals who otherwise would not have any place to go for treatment.
We also had fun making small improvements at the clinic. Daniel found time to re-plaster and paint the recovery area, install a fan, improve lighting in the surgery area, and go shopping for badly needed blankets, medications and vaccines.
As a volunteer you will work hard, but, like Daniel and me, you will feel privileged to be a part of the work carried out by Tibet Charity.

A letter from a beneficiary of Tibet Charity Emergency Medical Fund

I am glad to have someone like Tibet Charity who helped me when I was in bad physical and financial condition. I feel privileged now to say that I am feeling much better than before. I am very happy to back in good health but I am still under medication. Doctor asked me to lose weight and I am trying my best to be in good shape.

Because of your helping hand and kind support, I could buy the required medicines and take them in time without fail. I thank all the members of Tibet Charity and its most kind sponsors for bringing new hope and life to people like me. Thank you once again.

I will always pray for your good health and long life.

May you continue to bring smiles to million people's face.

Humbly yours,

Kalden Gyatso

Tibet Charity is soon going to start an Education under National Open Basic Education Program. Once this gets started, the students, especially new comers from Tibet and the school drop outs can get education that will have certification that will be recognised all over India. They can then aim to become professionals or join higher studies just like anyone coming out of normal schools.

Wanted Volunteer Vets

We have been carrying out Animal Birth Control and Rabies Vaccintation programs in places in and around Dharamsala (India) lovingly called the LITTLE LHASA.
Due to the efforts put in by our staff and the volunteers in the past, we have been successful in controlling the growing dog population in the region. We have also been able to reduce rabid dog cases in the area as well.
But we need the support of the volunteers to ensure that the program started by us in 2005 continues.
We also provide necessary treatment to the sick dogs in the region - especially the ones hit by vehicles.
Interested volunteers may contact us at animalcare@tibetcharity.in

Scholarship Program

Every year we have a scholarship program whereby we provide scholarship to the students who have just completed their class XII or graduation or post graduation courses in India to udergo professional courses.
This scholarship is provided to limited number of Tibetan refugee students who do well in their studies but are from families with poor financial background.
We therefore request all kind hearted philanthropist individuals and groups to kindly support us in making this program a success.
We are helping a Nation in exile that is going through the most critical period of its history. You can be a part of this nation building program by helping these citizens of future Tibet.
