A history will be taken of your condition as well as how your body is doing as a whole and any thoughts or concerns that you may have will be addressed.
Your session is clothed, in a safe and private environment, and will work to find the root cause of your physical and/or energetic restrictions or imbalances. During your session you will be the only patient that I treat, and my entire focus will be on you and your healing process.
After our discussion of your history we can decide together what modality or combination of modalities would work best for your unique history and the present moment. You may choose the primary modality for your session (Acupuncture, CranioSacral Therapy, Reiki, Zero Balancing, Shamanic Healing) or we can discuss together which service or combination of services would be of the most benefit for you. During your session, other modalities may be integrated into the session, including Visceral Manipulation, Brain Curriculum, SomatoEmotional Release, as well as the modalities listed above.
After the session, we will discuss my findings, and a treatment plan will be formed. I typically find that most patients respond best to two to three appointments scheduled fairly close together (once a week or once every other week), and then scheduling once or twice a month until your body has fully released the pattern of structural and/or energetic imbalance. Between one to five appointments is the typical time that it will take your body to experience a significant, lasting shift.
For other patients, a treatment plan of once a month, or a few times a year, or (for those who are more in touch with their bodies) to make an appointment when you feel as if you are ready for a significant shift may work best.
After your session, homework will be given for you to do between sessions, such as Breathing Exercises, Meditation, Visualization, Lifestyle and/or Dietary suggestions. An individualized herbal formula may be given to assist your process.
After your session it may take one day to a week to fully integrate the work. Each session builds on one another, and you will be encouraged to be an active participant in your individual healing process.
I pride myself on being an ethical practitioner, and after our first or second session together if I do not feel that I can be of assistance, or that you may need medical, psychological, chiropractic, or another practitioner of holistic healing instead of or in conjunction with my work, I will let you know.
HSA (Health Savings) and FSA (Flexible Spending Account) cards are typically accepted as forms of payment, or a Superbill can be provided for patients seeking reimbursement from their insurance company.
