MY GOAL IS TO HELP ALLEVIATE PAIN, MIGRAINES, SCIATICA PAIN, SCOLIOSIS,  AUTOIMMUNE   
BY USING THERAPIES THAT is DONE WITH CLOTHES ON

I was also trained in Swedish massage which I very rarely do,  I will do massage if needed.   Instead of massage,  I use the treatments listed above,  I find they work for relieving pain and promoting healing  much more efficiently than massage    

INVESTING  IN MASSAGE / BODY WORK  IS INVESTING
  IN YOUR HEALTH  

       I am here to share a little with you  how I came to survive Lymes and West Nile.  I am not here to claim any medical cures or treatments, but to share with you not only some of my experiences, but also of other's health challenges and how they responded to my treatments. 
​   The first day of my massage course at Intermountain College of Natural Health now in Twin Falls, ID. my instructor informed us that his plan was to teach us how to heal with our hands by teaching us many different treatments (modalities) as well as introductions to many others. This exceeded over and above my expectations little alone being an answer to my prayers. With just loosing my little business in the local mall due to the sale of the mall and in turn it went down hill big time where all of us independent shop owners where forced out.  Long story short, that is why I decided to take this massage course, never dreaming of what may come with the leap of faith I was about to embark upon.  I go into more detail in my book.  I just wanted to do a highlight so as not to overwhelm you right off the bat, of how and the why's I have gotten to this point in my life.  I know I'm not alone in the adventures of the Lord closing one door and I will say with "a push"  through another door he has opened.  For it was only two weeks before classes were starting that I had just lost everything!  As I look back if I hadn't been pushed through that door, I can tell you I wouldn't be alive today or able to help you and to share with you how I won the battle with lymes and west nile plus being blessed in having been taught by a gifted teacher who I took him at his word about teaching us about how to heal with our hands as well as inspirations from the Spirit of how to help others with their health challenges.   

     Once again, I invite you to travel the path on the journeys the Lord took me on, and how I got to where I am now in my book that will be coming out in the near future. My book also includes not only more information, but other protocols that I use and supplement lists as well.  

   There are "acupressure points"  I use for autoimmune that I found very effective towards winning the battle of lymes, and west nile, that I have suffered with for many years.  This treatment also alleviated the fibromyalgia  pain that goes along with lymes and west nile, as well as strengthening and stabilizing  my energy levels and kicking my body into a healing mode.  After experiencing these treatments I started using the treatments on my clients who suffered from lymes and/or west nile, they too experienced the same results.  
   
   I had started noticing that many people who suffer with lymes and west nile experience lymphatic drainage issues as well as the organ's drain lobes becoming sluggish which causes even more discomfort.  That is when I began to devise over time a treatment plan that helps to retrain the body's memory and ability to regain function in the lymphatic and digestions systems.   
   
   After working with clients for some time with these issues I realized, depending on how chronic their illness was, I would need to do follow up treatments every other day for a week or two (depending on how their energy was holding)  then the following week I do a treatment every two days and then the next week every three days till the client only needs a treatment once or twice a month, again depending on each individual needs.   In very severe cases I may do a treatment once or even twice a day to coax the energy to stabilize and to start holding on it's own. 
   
   My goal in this treatment is to stabilize the energy and to retrain memory of the body's digestive and lymphatic drainage systems.  As research shows, if things are backed up that's when a decline in a persons health takes place.
   
    Along with treatments, to make it simple, depending again on how chronic a person may be, the more rest you can get (this means refrain from any exercising and over due stress) the better your energy will stabilize and you will heal more sufficiently, the reason I say this is due to my own experience with lymes and west nile the more rest I could get the better I would feel.  As I have noticed when people expend their energy on resting instead of using their energy on anything else during treatments, they too, heal and regain their energy and strength at a faster and more stable rate.   As for my diet I stay on a strict healthy diet of dark greens (staying away from iceberg lettuce), eating and juicing fresh vegetables (if I use a fruit in my green juice I will only use a small amount as not to have to much sugar on board) and only fresh fruit.   I cut out all processed foods including going out to eat, and any premixed spices (unless the ingredients are all herbs)  including all boxed or packaged mixes.  I also cut out chicken (I've noticed it can cause undue pain I did research on allergies to chicken which I found can cause stomach issues and pain)   As far as eggs go - the trend to eating right is to go for the organic eggs,  I do generally buy the range free eggs.  I found when I eat the some "organic" eggs they upset my digestion and feelings of nausea set in.  I also stay away from potatoes, although I do eat baked sweet potatoes.  I find the longer I am on whole foods which also includes fish, pork, beef,  along with a green salad  (that includes spinach, kale, and chard for its base) and nothing processed,  I have noticed when I am very busy in my shop and go for a couple of days without my greens my energy starts to diminish greatly.  
   
  On the page "about/testimonial" I wrote about how I had a perfect diet and still almost "bit the dust" so to speak when I was so ill with lymes.  I have found, after learning about how important stabilizing your energy is,  that it's  "the key"  to my surviving  lymes and west nile.
   
    Here is a text message from a dear friend who came to stay with me for a few days, due to not feeling well for a couple of years due to some digestive issues.  And expressing her challenges about how difficult it is to eat better for your health.  She also mentioned she used her microwave everyday.   Which is one thing I stay away from at all cost!  For one of the many things I find is the food from the microwave causes me great grief by giving me heartburn!  

Janee:  "Hello my friend. Just thinking of you today. Are you in Idaho or Wyoming working? I've been taking my supplements faithfully. Not eating perfect though. Argh!!  It's so hard!   I must say I felt so much better and more like myself than I have for some time now!  Thank you for your help!"

 Me:  "Oh my. I was going to check in on u today!!  I am in Idaho. Want to come up!? 
  How are u feeling?
  Heads up,  .    The unhealthy foods will only plug you up more, and will not allow your body to heal. For your encouragement,
   I didn't eat, not even a taste of chocolate for 2 Years!  Or anything I wasn't supposed to . That the dr
 In Vegas told me I should not eat after testing my allergies.
   I was taught that  It takes 7 months to make all new blood cells.  7 years for a whole new body.   It just takes a long time and endurance on eating a healthy diet,   to heal.
   I know how hard it is to eat right  how much time it takes to fix.  We are in a battle against corrupt nutrition that destroys valuable quality of life 
             It's Not what most of us were taught growing up ....."take a pill you'll be fine.  It doesn't matter what you eat...or drink...... "
    I  am very grateful I am able to be of help!
 
   
​    I must say, I hear a lot of these types of stories in my office.  So therefore, just so you know,   you are not alone with these eating and health challenges.  That is one of the many reasons I am here is to help and encourage you on your journey to a healthier you.
   People will ask me,  how do I know where the sore spots are.  All I can say is,  I have had the same pains in the same places and also in my practice I find most everyone has the same pains who are not feeling well.   And I too am still battling somewhat with the scaring of lymes and west nile.  

   By integrating the different modalities,  together we can work towards helping you achieve your goals.
 I have studied many different modalities, that includes Muscle Balancing and other energy work techniques, for the last 14 yrs. 
  
   I also have worked in an alternative care clinic for 6 1/2 yrs. prior to building my own practice.  
   My home is in  American Falls, Idaho where I also do treatments.   I also travel once a month to my office in Powell, Wyo. and since my sons and their families live there,  it gives me the opportunity to spend time with them. 
 
   I have put together techniques that includes a nerve release technique may help pain in general including foot pain, leg pain, migraines, back pain, sciatica, muscle pain, 
       
​   These are the type of issues I work on for my clients (in-which you stay fully clothed), for I understand, this is why a lot of people have a difficult time going to a "massage therapist" . 

   My goal is to help people become pain free therefore I rarely do massages, for they only last two or three days then the pain returns.  So if your goal is to heal from your pain, lymes, west nile, autoimmune, or just do not feel well, and/or suffer from sluggish digestion, give me a call or text.  
   
​    ​I also use the Body Code to help identify and release those unwanted emotional burdens that may be causing you physical pain as well.    
 
​   The Body Code  is where we identify and correct imbalances that can cause emotional and physical problems for people and animals.  The Body has powerful abilities to heal if conditions are right and the Body Code makes it simple to find those underlying imbalances easily and quickly.  It also enables me to do distant healing (through proxy) for people and animals.
                                                                         For everything is Energy!  
 
​  I am looking forward to working with you, It would be an Honor and a Blessing for me, to help you along your path To a Healthier You!
​
​Thank You for allowing me to share your day!
