Dearest Megan,
The treatment you gave me was the most amazing experience. For the first time in so long I was at peace in my body and mind. Slipping through levels of consciousness that were powerful, peaceful and safe. Thank you so much! I'll see you in a few days for another.

Thank you Megan for listening to me and my body. I deal with pain & numbness in my calf, ankle & toes due to a bulging L4-5 disc. Your great care helped me have a great vacation. I hiked 6-9 miles a day...with a 15 pound backpack...for 6 days...with NO PAIN! Your care is so appreciated, thank you for helping me in such a compassionate way! Your love of your job is excellent!

My pain went from a 8/10 before treatment to a 3-4/10 after. So much more managable! Thank you.
