Trauma and Anxiety Relieved with Self-Applied Acupressure over the Phone

Here is a testimonial from a patient that worked with me over the phone. We did a session for her anxiety, and afterwards, she reported that the anxiety was just gone. Here's how the session was for her:

"I went to Kara for some anxiety issues.  After some very in-depth analysis, she guided me through a process of self-applied acupressure and focus.  Her gentle and non-judgemental guidance really helped me to visualize letting go of some of my anxiety and the trauma that caused it. 

I feel as if I've begun to address the traumatic event through my session with Kara, and am beginning to have a different perspective about it.  The thoughts, feelings and emotions related to it have totally faded.  I feel so much more relaxed and am better able to be in the present, as opposed to constantly reliving these events that contributed to my anxiety.

Kara is gifted and skillful at what she does.  And the fact that this was accomplished all over the phone / computer, is wonderful!!  I love that I could do this from my home and it was a very lovely and comfortable experience.  I can't wait until my next session!!


Thanks Kara, you rock!"

Is Your Anxiety Relatd to Old Trauma?

Oftentimes symptoms of anxiety, pain or allergies can actually be related to old traumatic events that the body has not been able to process and let go. In general, when patients come to me with a long standing problem and other treatments haven't worked, I ask them about their history of trauma. Sometimes there is trauma still locked in the nervous system that is totally forgotten on a mental level, but it's still creating symptoms. Sometimes the patient knows exactly what the trauma is but still can't discharge it. The great thing about Acupressure is that you don't have to know if there's a trauma associated with it, you just focus on the current symptoms and the body remembers and lets go of that past event related to your current symptoms. I've seen it so many times now, that I just trust it now.

So, if you've tried a number of modalities for your chronic symptoms of anxiety, pain, allergies or other health issues, you may just benefit from Acupressure. Questions? Contact me, I'm happy to discuss your concerns.
