Nervana Body & Soul

Nov 2023

This is a review for her breathwork, Theta Healing, and neuromuscular reprogramming massage: One of my chiropractors recommended her. Sometimes you just have to try something to see if it works for you instead of waiting for science to catch up. After she became a classically trained massage therapist, she saw clients would tend to come back with the same issues. Her website says that led her to train in neuromuscular reprogramming and she eventually discovered there were limitations to that as well. Then she became certified as an Advanced ThetaHealing practitioner and saw improvement and sometimes the disappearance of issues that hadn't been healed with her other modalities. She also became certified in trauma-informed breath work facilitation. As she says, "I am not offering to fix you or your body, because that would imply that there is something wrong with you." If you want to feel nurtured physically, emotionally, and spiritually, this is your home. Unlike some energy workers, she led me on a meditation and then asked throughout the session if I'd like to experience specific positive things I requested and transmute thoughts I didn't tell her about but she knew anyway. I found that to be more effective than some energy work where I didn't know what I was consenting to. The three and only sessions I've had were also one of the three energy work sessions in my life where I felt strong physical sensations. While she rested her hands under my neck, my normally cold hands became so hot. At my third session, I asked to work on more physical issues. After her gentle muscle testing and bodywork, I experienced a week of relief from a daily physical issue. I had gone to a Jikiden reiki practitioner a few days before for that issue. I didn't try to reiki myself because I wanted to experience the effects of different practitioners. Now I know in my body how her breathwork is different from meditations and other modalities I tried. Also, I appreciated that she offered another rare thing: a chance to create community where clients could choose to meet in-person at a group healing. And, I was grateful that she was generous with her time and cleared the room energetically between sessions. The best way to learn about her specials or online breathwork classes is to signup for her e-news on her website.
