1 year anniversary!
It was a Monday afternoon when I woke up in my hospital room after suffering my Traumatic Brain Injury (although the actual date is Wednesday) one year ago!! My doctors told me at about my 2nd month that it would take me about a year to get through my PCS. There were times 6 months ago, that i thought i would never get better. But once i finally started taking proper care of myself, truly resting and slowing down and listening to my doctors, and started getting Healing Touch for my headaches....i can say I am back to my old self. I feel amazing! I honestly didnt think i would feel as well as I do at this point, and so happy that i found the best possible combination of meds and complementary therapies that have helped me to heal. It is possible to get better! Keep a positive attitude, try alternative therapies to compliment your meds, and keep your chin up! Wishing you all the same success i have found! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! ITS A CELEBRATION OF LIFE THIS WEEK!!!

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
