My Healing Journey
My Personal Testimonial
Until my late 20’s I was in good health except for panic disorder which was at first successfully treated with medications. However, in the mid-80’s, and just 2 weeks after a Hepatitis B vaccination I started having severe pain throughout my body, overwhelming fatigue, and some feelings that I couldn’t think as clearly. I saw two rheumatologists: the first told me that “nothing was wrong with me” and the second suggested that if we just waited long enough that my tests would probably become positive for lupus! In both cases my hope was literally sucked out of me.
As an individual I knew that something was seriously wrong with me. As a physician I knew that some conditions are difficult to diagnose and that doctors don’t have all the answers. Two years later the “new” disease of fibromyalgia was recognized but the identical syndrome of “fibrocytis” had been recognized decades earlier(ater EI (enviromental illness) and MCS (multiple chemical sensitivites) were recognized).
I felt like many patients feel, that the doctors did not spend much time with me and that they really didn’t explain their thinking to me. I was frustrated that a more open-minded approach wasn’t offered, perhaps acupuncture, massage therapy, etc.. As a doctor, I also knew that many physicians are frustrated when a patient doesn’t fit a clear cut diagnosis-and they are rushed for time and feel overwhelmed by their patient load.
Thus began my first venture into the preludes of energy healing, that is, meditation and guided visualization that had been studied in Eastern medicine and by a few medical doctors and psychologists in the West. I responded pretty well to this and good nutrition but I still had some pain and fatigue. But it was tolerable and I could at least work and be productive.
However, several years later the fibromyalgia, EI/MCS and panic attacks returned. I started reading more about “energy medicine”-I knew as a physician that traditional medicine had nothing further to offer me. I was treating several patients with fibromyalgia, depression, auto-immune and other dgernerative illnesses and making little headway.
I found that energy healing strives to remove toxins, infections, and other “energetic blocks” in order to allow the individual’s innate or inner intelligence to heal them. Combining different energy approaches seemed to work best, and with good energy healers working with me my fibromyalgia and panic attacks resolved completely. I learned from them and studied as many healing techniques as I could and gradually my own insight and intuition grew. I then was able to help others with sincreasing success. I developed the skills of a "medical intutive" and "empath".
Along this path I became an ordained Minister or the World Congregation Church as well as a honorary "medicine man" of the Native American Nemenhah Band.
I was partiularly attracted to a modality called Quantum Techniques. It is much more specific than other energy techniques at discovering toxins and infections that are blocking healing -with a much higher success rate. It also does not reject the positive things in Western medicine and has elegantly incorporated Eastern medicine.
After my own experience and frustrations with the limits of Western medicine, I knew that my mission was to bring this healing opportunity to those suffering from acute and chronic illnesses.
