Healing Coaching Healing coaching is based upon the idea that we can and must heal our whole lives, whether we are cured or not. In the culture of "quick fixes", we can be cured but not healed. Together
we design a personal health plan to foster your healing. Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D. wrote in her book Grandfather's Blessings,
I let my own individuality interact with the individuality of each client. Following the energy of the moment, we unravel the mystery of healing together. A "session" lasts for 90 minutes and costs $80. The client does an intake assessment to begin with; both formally, in written response, and informally, in a give-and-take discussion. I help the client form an intention for their session before the client moves to the treatment room. The client is fully clothed except for the feet. I then tailor complementary techniques for each person. A treatment could include reflexology, polarity, Reiki, visualization, meditation and some acupressure and aromatherapy. At times I work with tonic and non-medicinal herbs, and flower essences. The
above-mentioned modalities help people with chronic health issues
such as cancer, multiple schlerosis, arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic
fatigue syndrome or other dibilitating chronic diseases. Some clients
seek help from depression and grief states. Through centering and relaxation, healing begins its beautiful process.
