I am a Master Herbalist, Nutritional Kinesiologist and Reiki Master with over twenty years of experience. Let me show you how it's done!

​

My Services Include:​

Muscle Testing is a precise and reliable system of detecting blocks that may be preventing your body from healing.
​

​
​​Muscle Testing consults the innate intelligence of the body to reveal what is preventing healing from injury or illness. The form used in my practice is called Nutritional Response Testing™, a program developed by Freddie Ulan DC, CCN.

The human body has an electrical system, or flow of bio-energy, that is influenced by various substances and emotions. When the body is out of balance, certain substances such as herbs, vitamins and energy work can assist in healing. Muscle testing is a non-invasive procedure that can help detect muscle weaknesses indicating imbalance, and test for the things that will help strengthen the body and bring it back to balance.

This system of testing results in a streamlined nutritional program that is easy to follow and is cost-effective since you won’t be purchasing supplements your body does not need.

Traditional Medicine for the Contemporary Person - Reiki

Reiki and Amanohuna are two ancient healing techniques for stress reduction and relaxation that help the body to heal itself and enhance the quality of life. They tap into an unlimited supply of “life force energy,” also known as “chi,” which has been verified by recent scientific experiments. Medical doctors are considering the role it plays in the functioning of the immune system and the healing process. Used together, Amanohuna and Reiki provide a complete, dynamic and balanced healing system that is more powerful than either one alone.

Uses:

* to speed healing--post op, fractures, wounds, burns, etc.

* to relieve pain, anxiety, & fear

* to relieve & prevent burnout, to nurture yourself and your family

What my Clients say:

Ann says:

I’ve been a client of Barbara’s since 2015. I got much more than a quality multivitamin, which was what I think I was initially seeking. I had developed Meniere’s disease in 2009, whose symptoms included debilitating bouts of vertigo and loud ringing in my left ear. I had tried many treatments but none had been very effective. I credit Barbara for helping me get these symptoms under control. I have not had vertigo for many years now and the ringing in my ear stays very low key.  Every condition or imbalance of mine she has been presented with, she has eventually found the right combination of supplements to bring my body into balance and improve my well being. She is very knowledgeable in her field, thorough, thoughtful, honest, compassionate and caring in her client interactions.

​

Eric says:

Barbara is very knowledgeable about healthy living, nutritional deficiencies and supplements to help alleviate those deficiencies. She has helped me numerous times, including after brain cancer, in conjunction with my doctors, to get me back to feeling my best. When I had a moderately severe itch that doctor’s medication didn’t help, Barbara’s stress kit indicated a bacterial challenge; a supplement assisted in it’s healing within a couple of weeks.

​Crystal Says:

Reiki is not something I had tried before but after a emotional breakup and a surgery it was recommended that I do a healing session. I was amazed at how calm I felt afterwards and how different my body felt and how it responded. Barbara was very professional and kind.
​

Susan says:

I would highly recommend Barbara as a Reiki Master.
​

Nora says:

I wanted to experience a Reiki session with Barbara because I am a Level 2 Reiki graduate but I had not been using Reiki in my yoga and healing practices. My session with Barbara helped me realize how important Reiki is to my life and my own healing. I feel reawakened in a sense. I have a very deep gratitude for Barbara and her ability to allow people to heal their own Self through her loving touch.
