Energy Healing
I use a combination of energy healing practices along with somatic awareness guidance to help bring attention to your inner experiences, encouraging you to hear your own wisdom. We track subtle body sensations such as muscular tension, breath, and other physical feelings to help deepen the body-mind connection, release stress, and move into relaxed space. We support removing energetic blocks to wellness and encourage the self-healing mechanisms of the body to become active.
This is a gentle method that helps facilitate positive changes across the body-mind-spirit system. It supports a deep level of relaxation which can lead to healing effects. This approach follows my model of care, supporting slow medicine, heart-centered care, reflection, receptivity, and self-kindness.
Sessions support the relaxation response in order to gently encourage your body to activate its own self healing mechanisms. These sessions always use a holistic approach that can be further enhanced by positive lifestyle changes outside of sessions. Energy medicine is a powerful tool that can be utilized for self growth and personal healing. It works at a deep level, offering nourishing support to the entire body-mind-spirit system.

Pranic Healing®
Pranic Healing® is a hands-off energy healing method developed in the Philippines. It follows a process of cleansing, energizing, and stabilizing the energy system. This modality is great for pain, stress, and most kinds of diseases or imbalances in the body. It has a special affinity for supporting mental health and trauma concerns because it works to clear out old energetic patterns without having to talk about anything difficult. I am certified as an Advanced Pranic Healer®
Reiki
- Reiki is a Japanese energy healing method with deep roots thought to have come from India. It is a gentle, non-invasive energy healing method that supports the body-mind-spirit system. It is terrific for stress reduction, encouraging a state of deep relaxation, bringing clarification to your path, and tapping in to your own inner wisdom. I have been practicing Reiki since 2005.
AcuBotanics Therapy™
AcuBotanics Therapy™ combines the use of small, energetic doses of herbal tinctures and flower essences with acupuncture theory and biodynamic energy healing methods.
It acts similar to acupuncture, but uses topical herbs instead of needles. This practice embraces cross cultural energy healing methods, emphasizing that as humans, we have always known plants have their own healing wisdom to share.
This method integrates a unique way of practicing energy medicine through herbs, offering a gentle, yet powerful, needle-free way to affect energetic changes.
This modality is often utilized when a person is in a life transition or when doing deep self-healing and growth work. The plants provide subtle support to help you along your path as you quest to peel the layers of "not you" in order to express more of who you are.
The pulse is a primary diagnostic tool in East Asian Medicine. Pulse testing herbs gives you a formula that is specific to your body. Pulse testing simply means that I feel for specific, subtle changes in your pulse as we drop a variety of tinctures onto your skin. This helps determine your body's response to a particular herb and helps us devise a formula specific to your needs.
Once a formula has been created for you, a few drops will be applied topically to specific acu-points. You will then be guided through a resting and integrating phase while you relax on a comfy, heated massage table. This portion of the session may utilize reiki, qigong, reflexology, or other energy healing techniques. Your herbal formula is sent home for use during the following 7-10 days.
The ability of plant medicine to teach us how to find greater harmony within ourselves is truly amazing.
Unlike with other energy medicine modalities, you can take a tangible part of this session home with you. This method is empowering and cost effective. Another unique aspect of this work is the focus on local plants. Most of the herbs used are grown, harvested, and tinctured fresh, at the peak of their vitality, right here in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Please note that herbal tinctures are alcohol extractions. Flower essences are primarily water, but contain a small amount of alcohol as a preservative. While the dosages are incredibly low, this modality would not be appropriate for those who wish to completely avoid alcohol.
