How Energy Therapy
Saved My Life

In the late 90’s I had been sick for nearly a year with debilitating flu-like pain symptoms and exhaustion. I went to bed tired and was exhausted when I had to get up in the morning. I went to the doctor and was given pain pills to manage the pain, but that only made me feel even more tired. Finally, I was referred to an Internal Medicine specialist whose training was in Rheumatoidology. She immediately diagnosed me with “Fibromyalgia”. I had never heard of it before, but the “symptoms” fit me to a tee. She prescribed a mild anti-depressant called Elavil (Amitriptyline) which helped me sleep better at night and made the pain more tolerable as my body began regenerating. I was sleeping better, but the effects of the medication did not wear off until noon, so I was still extremely tired all the time. Being in my mid 30’s at the time, I knew I had to find some alternative, because I did not want to spend the rest of my life taking medication that made me feel so tired.

During this time, I was stationed in England and started looking for holistic therapies in hopes of replacing the medicine with natural remedies. I started with massage therapy, reflexology, and herbal medicine. One day I picked up a flyer for training in Health Kinesiology (I call it Energy Therapy). There was a list of things it could help; for instance, stress management, pain relief, allergies, etc. So, I called to sign up for the class. I had to wait several months before the next class started however. The teacher put me in contact with one of her students who needed someone to practice her skills on so I could experience the benefits of the therapy before I committed to the year long training program. I called up the student and within the first few weeks I noticed I felt more relaxed and started sleeping better. Then, the pain started disappearing. Excited about my results, I called my Doctor and asked if I could stop taking the medication because I was feeling so good. She too was delighted for me and weaned me off the medication over the next month. Within a little over a month, I was feeling more like my old self. I felt that energy therapy had literally saved my life!

I soon realized what an impact the energy therapy had made in my life. For me the turning point occurred while driving to work one very early morning. As I was driving down that dark English country road at 5:00 AM, I felt so full of vibrant energy I felt like a bright light bulb. I had this vision of seeing myself from above and seeing the car driving along the road. My energy field was so full of light I was illuminating not only the interior of the car but the road and the fields on both sides of the car as well. What was even more amazing was that I was so wide-awake and that I was feeling so energized! That was the moment I knew I had my life back and knew how powerful energy therapy was! I thanked God for blessing my life with this gift of energy therapy and for answering my prayer for healing.

After that experience I told others about energy therapy, and once I had started my training I practiced on anyone who would allow me to work with them. I practiced every chance I could get. I love helping others (I always have) and decided that was what I wanted to do when I retired from the Air Force. The more I learned about the energy field of the body, the more I wanted to know. I enrolled in other courses and learned new skills and techniques so I could offer more options to others to help them in whatever way possible. My greatest joy is seeing clients living healthier, happier qualities of life.

During my early training, my mother had been diagnosed with Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. She was given only 1 – 1-½ years to live. She outlived the doctor’s expectations by living 4 years. I retired from the Air Force to come home and be with her and help my Dad with her care, not knowing how long she would survive and wanting to help in any way I could with my new found energy therapy skills. It was such a blessing for me to spend her final year with her. We did a lot of energy therapy together to help her cope with her anger at “what had happened to her”. Her sadness at being given a death sentence at the age of 55. There was so much life yet she still wanted to live, but living on oxygen 24/7 limited that possibility.

The medications she was on would make her violently ill, and she would begin throwing up uncontrollably. To counteract the adverse side effects of the medication, her doctor would admit her to the hospital and administer Phenergan (given to control nausea) intravenously for several days. However, once I retired from the Air Force and returned home I was able to simply touch energy points on her body, to calm her energy system enough for her body to cease the vomiting. Within minutes the nausea and vomiting would stop. At first she thought it was a fluke, that it would start up again. So, we would continue to hold the points a few minutes longer. Then we would wait and see and she would be okay, often for several weeks or months at a time. She said it was a miracle. That is the power of energy therapy (of course that’s my opinion!). That is the power that I have experienced first hand, and witnessed time and time again. Sadly, it wasn’t able to save her life, that was her choice, but she was able to enjoy a better quality of life as a result of the energy therapy.

That is why I feel so passionate about sharing this knowledge and information with others. It gave me my life back; it helped comfort my mother during a terminal illness and so much more.

I feel a calling for this profession because I genuinely believe I have a gift to offer that can improve the quality of life for others in many ways. Because Energy Therapy is not in the main stream however, people don’t know about it, and if you don’t know about it, you can’t use it. So, I what to share my story with the world and teach as many people as possible about the effectiveness of Energy Therapy and how to use it themselves.
