Understanding the true meaning of Robert St John’s work: Metamorphosis-rsj
Robert St John discovered that gentle, non-invasive touches to reflex points on the feet, hands, head, or spine can lead to noticeable changes in behaviour. Clients often become more focused, confident, and may experience shifts in careers or relationships. He called these reflex points the “Prenatal Pattern.”
This approach, called Metamorphosis-rsj, is a simple yet powerful method that can transform your life and positively influence those around you.
Unlock your potential and embrace your true self through transformative sessions of Metamorphosis-rsj that target emotional blockages and promote personal growth.
What Is a Metamorphosis-rsj Session?
The Feet: Represent the “going centre.” Light work on foot reflexes helps individuals move forward and release past limitations, allowing their true self to emerge.
The Hands: The “doing centre,” facilitating inner change.
The Head: The “thinking centre,” helps to clarify and make sense of internal shifts.
Over years of practice, it became clear to Robert St John that many behaviours have no obvious cause, yet they influence how we think, feel, and respond.
These traits may include unwanted traits, tendencies, and stress. They are not consciously remembered, but they shape our lives.
They are not faults or weaknesses—simply part of what we have inherited.
All creatures inherit information necessary for survival.
For example:
A bird instinctively knows how to build a nest
This knowledge is inherited, not learned
In the same way:
Humans inherit traits from their ancestors through their mother at conception
A person carries these into life, without being aware of them.
What is Metamorphosis-rsj?
Because all beings inherit traits through ancestral memory, “Metamorphosis-rsj” is often confused with species in nature transforming.
Robert St John clarified that his meaning isn’t about species transforming, as they need to carry their inherited memories to pass to the next generation.
It’s about clearing inherited memories and traits. Once released, you can transform into a new version of yourself—free from unwanted inherited memories—so these traits are not passed on to future generations.
Metamorphosis-rsj may help individuals become aware of and release limiting inherited patterns.
Many people report feeling freer, more confident and more able to move forward in life following sessions.
Why Did Robert St John Rename “Prenatal Therapy” “Metamorphosis-rsj?”
He realised his approach isn’t therapy, which seeks to cure. Instead, it’s a process of self-healing, working with the body's innate intelligence—sometimes called the subconscious mind—that stores all memories from the moment of conception.
In Metamorphosis-rsj, we do not directly analyse or change these traits. We allow the person’s innate intelligence to make the changes.
The practitioner acts as a catalyst, helping this natural self-healing process happen safely and effectively for all ages, from babies to seniors.
