Testimonials

Some of my symptoms of PTSD that were affected by the treatment were light sensitivity, taste and smell. During the session I experienced a surge of strong emotions that I had not experienced with Shannon’s treatments before, they were neither positive nor negative but very strong. One of my PTSD symptoms that affected my life regularly was a negative reaction to light changes that in turn caused panic attacks. After the treatment I no longer have a negative reaction or panic attacks due to change in light. I have also experienced an increase in smell and taste, both were limited prior to the treatment. I would highly recommend this to other PTSD patients if it was available. Shannon was thorough, easy mannered, professional, and knowledgeable. She created an environment where I felt safe and was able to let go and let the process work.

This was the day I met a woman named Holly Christy. We discussed briefly my past and my guarded emotional state etc. She told me there was a chance I would feel emotions all at once and maybe some bits and pieces of memory may come through. I honestly didn’t expect anything. I did suffer brain trauma and had been told this all before by VA. Then Holly did a scan on me (This is the "hocus pocus" part I mentioned earlier.) She found some things and we went to work. Shortly thereafter as I lay there on the treatment table I remember thinking at that moment that I didn’t feel anything...nothing had changed. Then I sat up... I was hit with images and emotions that I had buried or lost. The wave of all of it was exhausting and to be honest...emotionally brutal. This one treatment opened a door in my head that has allowed a level of emotional clearing I can’t even begin to put into words. I wish I could share how different things are now. Don’t misunderstand... the demons still come sometimes...but now there are not as many of them...now it’s a fair fight.

I was slightly apprehensive about someone touching my head and face, however the first session changed my life. I explained why I was there, and the provider got to work. I totally passed out! I was in absolute shock! I could not believe I met someone with magic hands. The provider was was able to relieve pain, release pressure in my face, and made my head feel lighter. Honestly, I have lived with so much pain for so long, I didn’t remember what it felt like to not be in severe pain.

Immediately after the treatments I felt more light-hearted. I laughed more and was more able to enjoy people and experiences. I also at first, felt like I was being especially hyper-vigilant. I think however, what was really happening was a recognition of how I gear up mentally and physically when I am around other people and situations. Two months post-treatment, I noticed cognitive changes. I was more able to problem solve, more able to focus and when looking at a situation I could see more possibilities and less limitations. Three months post-treatment, I discovered more improvement. When the storming of the U.S. Capitol occurred we followed events closely in the media. I saw a lot of footage of cops being assaulted and people trapped inside who feared for their safety. In the past this would have triggered me. You see, when I was a teacher, we were taken hostage by a student. He had been threatening to kill the  principal and came to school with a gun and a plan. Usually, seeing the video and hearing the audio of events like this I would revert back physiologically to the state I was in that day in my school. This time I didn’t. I could empathize with those folks and their predicament but it didn’t become about me and that situation that I am no longer in. I am very grateful for all you’ve done for me. My future is much brighter because of your work!
