Chris Repasz, President of the Connecticut Health Freedom Coalition and Robban Sica, MD

Protecting the Right of the Patient to Choose the Practitioner to Practice. Connecticut Health Freedom Coalition, CTHFC, has formed as a state chapter of the American Association of Health Freedom, AAHF. CTHFC is comprised of Physicians, Naturopaths, Nutritionists, Homeopaths, as well as consumers who have united in a grass roots organization to protect access to Complementary, Alternative and Integrative modalities.

CTHFC is calling together all individuals and groups interested wanting to preserve their freedom of access to complete health care. The purpose of this call is to build a strong state coalition with a united voice, and send a clear message that we demand health freedom. A more acceptable balance must be created between individual rights to self-determination and free choice, and the government's concerns for public safety.

Robban A. Sica, MD graduated from the University of Toledo and the Medical College of Ohio. Dr Sica has been practiced integrative medicine for over 20 years and founded an integrative multi-specialty private practice of natural and alternative medicine. She sits on the Board of Directors for the American Board of Clinical Metal Toxicology, the International Board of Advanced Longevity Medicine, and the International College of Integrative Medicine. Her brave battle against Connecticut state officials was successful in protecting freedom of access to chelation therapy in the state. Since then, protecting health freedom has become a passion for Dr. Sica and she happily joined the AAHF and the CHFC Board of Directors to help health freedom efforts. For more information contact Craig Repasz at: President@cthfc.org or 203-230-1697.

Jocelyne Colombe, APRN
"Our Body from Matter to Light."

Our transformation into a new body is referred to as 'Lightbody' Integration, a natural process of evolution. As our consciousness (light) expands, our bodies begin to 'shed the old ways' through detoxification typically resulting in physical symptoms. These symptoms are meant to be transient and eliminated completely from our body. Some people are discovering that many of the physical ailments they are experiencing are not being addressed by current medical practices. That is because they are symptoms of the Light Body. Cutting edge lightbody technology including the BioMat and a healing system called Transference Healing, designed to diminish or totally prevent symptoms will be discussed. Jocelyne Colombe is an Architectural Health and Wealth Designer. She has taught Energy Medicine extensively in colleges, hospitals, Holistic Health Expos and through her private practice. She has led spiritual journeys to Egypt. She brings ancient healing tools and modern technology to ease our rapid transition into light.
