Using this method of integrated holistic health care, we can treat the whole being by attending to its structural, emotional, energetic and chemical integrity.
At Essence-Healing, LLC, we believe in the whole person approach to health and wellness. A person is more than their individual parts. Identifying the origins and the dynamics of an imbalance among these parts and the consequences of this imbalance is the first step in restoring a state of well-being at the root level. We specialize in treating infertility, allergies, a variety of physical pains, and physical manifestations due to stress from anxiety, depression, insomnia, grief and a host of other imbalances.
We believe that health and healing begins at a personal level and the body innately possesses the ability to self-heal. At Essence-Healing, LLC, we can teach you the tools that can facilitate greater body awareness to achieve optimal balance in one’s health.
Acupuncture - What is it?
Many thousands of years ago in china ancient people would pray when they suffered from disease. At this same time of prayer they would also press certain areas of the body with pieces of sharp stone. Unexpectedly when the same areas where stimulated with a sharp piece of stone the disorder would be relieved. After a long accumulation of such information the therapeutic method of acupressure and the use of Bian Stones finally came into practice.
