Bio: |
After suffering from severe chronic pain for many years following serious bicycling accident, I was desperate for relief. Some of the many different medical approaches I tried helped to some degree, but not enough to allow me to be fully functional. When a friend recommended a Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner, I was highly skeptical, but also curious, so decided to try one treatment. I ended up being so impressed with the results from that one treatment that I left my work in medical research so I could study to become a practitioner myself. A few years later I also fell in love with Reiki and animal Reiki, and incorporated those practices into my treatments and classes as well. I am so happy to be able to help others who are in the same situation I was in before I discovered energy healing.
I've found that working with animals makes me a better practitioner with people, and vice versa. A life-long animal lover, I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, domesticated and wild, and have been fortunate enough to also offer Reiki and JSJ to many animals of all kinds. Both modalities are joyful ways to deepen the connection and bond between human and human or human and animal. |
