Natural Healing Techniques that may be utilized in a personalized session for your
personal outcome are listed. These will be used either separately or in some appropriate
combination. There are other modalities not highlighted here that may be included in a
session; however these are the core modalities employed at
Wings of Healing.

Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy gently allows for the recollection and resolution of past events perhaps by
seeing the event in a positive framework.  Hypnosis and guided imagery are effective
tools for achieving general wellness, reducing stress and anxiety, and minimizing  pain in
an effective non-invasive manner.  Myo-hypnosis is a painless method of actualizing
muscle memory release. Medical hypnosis and fibro-hypnosis are wonderful techniques
that are an important part of
Wings of Healing.

Reiki healing
Reiki, simply put, is healing energy. Reiki allows the practitioner to draw upon universal
guided life energy restoring balance within the body, mind and spirit and emotions.
Divinely guided Reiki empowers the person to receive gentle and effective healing on all
levels and strengthens the mind, body, spirit connection.

Cranio-sacral/Reiki healing
The cranio-sacral system includes the bones of the skull, face and mouth and continues to
the sacrum. An imbalance in this system can have detrimental effects on health and
well-being. Through extremely light, hands-on pressure, the cranio-sacral therapist assists
the body in self-correction and self-healing by restoring balance in the cranio-sacral
rhythm.

Reflexology/Engergetic Balancing
This ancient therapy is based on the principle that there are reflex points in the hands and
feet that correspond to all the body's organs, glands and nerves. Reflexology removes
blockages in the body's energy flow and releases energy to promote healing. These
releases allow nerve impulses to function properly and improve circulation and lymphatic
flow.

Myomassology/holistic/gentle primarily
Along with the proven benefits of Swedish massage such as relaxation and stress
reduction, Myomassology includes various other therapeutic techniques to foster physical,
emotional, and spiritual healing. This integration of body, mind and spirit may include
cranio-sacral therapy, reflexology, aromatherapy, polarity, trigger point therapy, shiatsu,
myofacial release and more. See RUIT therapy below for chronic issues.

RUIT specific area therapy
Repetitive Use Injury Therapy is a muscle release technique, useful for carpal tunnel,
knee pain, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, sciatica, joint pain including jaw pain, migraines
and more. This modality can be on its own after injury or after p. therapy is complete.
