Vivie Bishop

A life long passion for healing

Vivie Bishop has been involved in the healing arts and cutting-edge technologies most of her life. Throughout the last fifty years, Vivie has practiced massage, Reiki, EFT, light therapy, coaching, and has created and led women’s groups.

She loves assisting people to release limitations which have kept them in old patterns of fear, trauma, pain, loss, and depression. Too many feel “at the effect of” and are victims to external circumstances and Vivie works to bring them into creative states where they can make powerful changes. She uses coaching and EFT (tapping) to masterfully get results.

Light therapy (with the InLight system) is her secret sauce, having used it daily since 2013. Vivie gives sessions, rents units, and markets them to create and maintain health and well-being.

Vivie has a life coaching certificate through Strategic Intervention, an in-depth program created by Cloe Mandes and Tony Robbins. She is certified in EFT by Lori Leydon through Nick Ortner’s foundation. And she has certificates in Reiki and light therapy.

Vivie has done numerous meditation events all over the world with Dr. Joe Dispenza and brings the quantum view of healing to her work. She loves life and teaches what she lives.

Hans Hoogeveen

Wisdom and knowledge shared with a compassionate heart

Hans has always had a curiosity and passion for the human body and how it functions. This led him to become a physical therapist, EMT and a medical massage therapist. Understanding the complexity of the human body and its energetic and spiritual components, he became a Reiki Master/Teacher and an ordained Universal minister.

Hans grew up in the Netherlands and moved to America at age 10. Education was important and Hans’ father, a Family Practitioner, inspired Hans to graduate with a science and philosophy degree. During that time, Hans uplifted others through teaching swimming and skiing to the disabled population. He has always loved making a difference and contributing to the human spirit and its potential.

After running a successful healthcare business in Oregon, he moved to Florida where he learned CranioSacral Therapy at the Upledger Institute. This lit up his passion for what was possible in health and healing. He discovered that this was the only therapy that was successful in treating his former wife’s essential tremor. 

Hans now owns Opt For Light Rejuvenation Center with his wife, Vivie, in Sarasota, Florida. His compassion and his in-depth knowledge of the body make him unique in this field. Using a whole-body approach to health and healing, he brings specialized methods and modalities into each of his sessions.

Hans has a master’s degree in physical therapy from the Hogeschool van Amsterdam. He studied at the Upledger Institute in Palm Beach, Florida as a CranioSacral Therapist. In addition, he became a Usui Ryoho Reiki Master and Teacher. He continues to expand his knowledge by exploring new discoveries in alternative health and healing through seminars, courses and certifications.

Transformation As A Driving Force

Transformation is the driving motivator in our practice. In part, we assist people to get beyond what was modeled for them, limiting beliefs that are holding them back, and emotions which are destructive to a healthy, radiant life resulting in a sense of freedom and wellbeing.

Meditative Foundations

We, Vivie and Hans, have for many years, meditated daily with Dr. Joe Dispenza’ s meditations. Dr. Joe is a chiropractor and neuroscientist who has opened up our understanding of life in the quantum model. We bring this philosophy into our coaching and therapy sessions inspiring clients to move into new ways of thinking. They can now find deeper connection and freedom to expand their lives.

Our mission is to offer state-of-the-art modalities

that support, transcend, fortify, and balance

your health and well-being.

Zazen Scalar

Zazen Scalar is a device that when placed in any environment, creates a scalar field (zero-point energy) that can help counteract and remove the negative effect of electromagnetic (EMF) pollution, and create a regenerative and energy balancing effect. Exposure to scalar energy will put the body back into balance, and this balance is needed for well-being and to be able to live with the most amount of energy and ease.

Zazen Scalar Energy Lounge

Our Zazen Scalar Energy Lounge is designed for the body to bask in harmonic, regenerative resonance. It is the perfect environment for the body to balance itself, as our bodies are innately intelligent and know how to balance if given the right conditions. In our lounge, one relaxes in a zero-gravity chair for an hour up to several hours. The atmosphere is peaceful and calming.

Light Therapy

Light energy stimulates the release of nitric oxide from hemoglobin into the blood stream. When nitric oxide is released from hemoglobin, it enters the muscle cells in the walls of the blood vessels. The muscle cells relax as the blood vessel diameter enlarges, allowing more blood to flow through the vessels. In effect, more oxygen and blood flow through the body, empowering it to be the miracle it already is.

Specialized CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy is a light touch approach to optimize the flow of cerebral spinal fluid around the brain and about the spine. It releases tension that causes restrictions in this flow, freeing the central nervous system to perform at its best. The results of the treatment decrease pain and dysfunction within the whole body and strengthen resistance to disease. This process enhances your health, immune response, and the body’s own natural capacity to relax and heal.

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

Our bodies and spirits are always moving towards health and being free, unencumbered by the burdens of the past. Our souls want to be free! EFT is a simple, rapid, and effective technique that relieves stress, anxiety, fears, old emotional patterns, pain, and physical issues. It is based on a synthesis of Chinese acupuncture and cognitive restructuring.

Spiritual Coaching

Spiritual Coaching is an approach more authentically clear, powerful, and joyful. Our lives then reflect being the victors, the creators, instead of the victims and at the effect of what is around us.

Pain Reprocessing Therapy

Chronic pain doesn't have to define you. Pain Reprocessing Therapy is a revolutionary approach that helps your brain relearn how to experience pain. By addressing the root causes of chronic pain, pain reprocessing therapy can significantly reduce your discomfort and improve your overall quality of life. Discover how to regain control and enjoy life to the fullest.

Hans & Vivie

Vivie Bishop, a seasoned wellness practitioner, and Hans Hoogeveen, a skilled physical therapist, have joined forces to create a unique healing experience. With a combined expertise spanning massage therapy, Reiki, life coaching, energy work, and CranioSacral Therapy, they offer a holistic approach to address the mind, body, and spirit.

Craniosacral Therapy Clients

I was extremely excited when I learned that we have Cranio-Sacral healing Therapy right here in Apollo Beach! This type of therapy improves the body's ability to take better care of itself. It helps with so many illnesses to help improve pain and possible dysfunction. Hans and his wife are very knowledgeable in his field. I also loved the calm and peaceful feeling I felt when I walked into their office. I would highly recommend Progressive Health Connection for any age and just about any condition.

Hans has an incredible passion for CranioSacral, which is reflected in his outstanding work. After just one session, I did not need the weekly chiropractic visits, my sleep improved, and my back pain was greatly diminished. I look forward to more sessions to keep me feeling my best. If you never had CranioSacral, I highly recommend Hans. He is a phenomenal therapist.

Always welcomed with a smile and positive energy when visiting. The scalar lounge is one of the most relaxing things I’ve ever experienced. I feel realigned and like my body is actually starting to heal. Definitely recommend this place!

Absolutely recommend Opt for Light!! Hans’ cranial sacral treatment was amazing. He absolutely has the golden touch with his hands and his knowledge and his wisdom of energy and healing.

We as human beings are miracles.

Our bodies support our health through vast networks and systems that function seamlessly together. Emotionally, our hearts open us to humanity, love, and connection which sustain and feed us. Our minds stimulate new thoughts which lead to exploration and discovery. Our spirit touches something bigger than

ourselves and furthers compassion and joy.

How often do we appreciate the amazing and whole beings that we are? How often do we say to ourselves, “Thank you, I appreciate and love you” and “I will do what I can to assist and take care of you?” Our beings are worth loving, especially through the challenging times when we need it the most.

Self-love is the act of nurturing ourselves, tending to what we’ve been given. It is bringing awareness to our relationship with ourselves. We notice when we are repeating the same unhappy patterns over and over and focusing on what isn’t working or what we don’t want. We become aware when we are not being kind – to ourselves or others and notice what triggers us when we get defensive and upset. Through observation and honesty, we catch ourselves and can change it to reflect a more positive inner state. This awareness will change our lives!

The act of loving ourselves, powerfully sends the message to us that we are worthy of being loved. We are responsible for our choices and feelings; we get to choose our lives which are way more satisfying and fun than being affected by what is around us. We get to show up as the connected, resourceful beings that we are.

Our beautiful selves deserve to be tended to by us. Being taken care of can range from healing and releasing emotional traumas and fears through coaching, to climbing a mountain and basking in the view, wind, and light. Dancing in pajamas in the living room, enjoying a massage, and practicing meditation are all ways of loving ourselves. Having new adventures, stepping into the “unknown” and being spontaneous are life-giving favorites of mine.

Let’s treat ourselves the way we would treat a baby, gently, sweetly, and without judgment. It not only feels great but it is shared with those around us like a soft, encompassing light.
