Welcome
Welcome to my Website! I am a licensed massage therapist who specializes in some very unique modalities. My passion is being a facilitator in your healing. In all the therapies I offer, my goal is to help you feel better, not only at the time you leave my office, but the next day and the next week.
I have started a new blog, Explorations in Healing! One thing that I have noticed through the years is that one of the biggest motivators that people have for making changes in their life is pain. Pain is something we feel in our bodies, whether physical, mental, or emotional. No matter what pain we are experiencing, we experience it through our bodies The people I know who have had the greatest impact on the greatest number of people through the work they devoted themselves to, started doing that work as a result of some painful experience that impacted them greatly. Most people who are driven to change the world for the better in a particular way have first been through something hard. Hard could mean a debilitating illness, an injury, the death of a loved one, mental illness, low energy, allergies, rejection, and so on. Though none of us particularly likes to have our body experience pain, it can serve us by helping us realize what is most important to us and spurs us on to action. It takes us on journeys we would never have gone on otherwise. It has the potential to transform us into something extraordinary and live a life full of meaning....read more Explorations in Healing

I am an Upledger Certified CranioSacral Therapist. In addition to massage therapy and CranioSacral therapy, I am certified in Biomagnetism, sometimes referred to as Biomagnetic Pair Therapy. I am the only biomagnetic pair therapist in Utah and have been doing it for over a decade. Combining it with craniosacral therapy is a powerful tool in restoring your health and vitality. Thousands of people have found relief from a variety of symptoms with Biomagnetism. It is as simple as placing magnets in pairs on the body to help it balance the pH, and the body does the rest. If you don't feel as good as you would like, this is a gentle therapy that is worth trying as part of your overall health care. It should not be considered a substitution for medical care.

What is Biomagnetism or Biomagnetic Pair Therapy?
Biomagnetism, also referred to as Biomagnetic Pair Therapy, is a therapy that uses medium strength magnets to depolarize specific points in the body that support unhealthy microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi. The object of this therapy is to balance pH within the body. It is non-invasive and gentle. It was discovered and developed by Dr. Isaac Goiz Duran of Mexico.
How does Biomagnetic Therapy work?
A healthy human body is essentially pH neutral. Microorganisms need either acidity or alkalinity in order to live. When a bacteria, virus, parasite or fungus enters the body, it causes a distortion of pH in a specific location. A counter location produces the opposite distortion. One point will be acidic and the other alkaline. The two affected areas resonate with each other and are what Dr. Goiz calls a Biomagnetic Pair.
When two magnets of opposite polarity are placed over the Biomagnetic Pair, it becomes depolarized and returns to pH neutral. A complete body scan by a practitioner will detect those specific areas of the body that are polarized. As each pair is identified, magnets are placed on the body, the negative side of a magnet is placed where it is alkaline, and the positive side of another magnet is placed where it is acidic.
The organizational properties of the magnets aid the body in rebalancing the pH of affected cells, enabling the body to heal itself. It does this by repelling like polarities and attracting opposite polarities. As normal pH is restored, the environment which the microorganism needs for survival is destroyed.
The effect is immediate upon impact. This is why many people feel better instantaneously. Magnets themselves do not create new cells or heal damaged cells. If a disease has already produced symptoms and damage to the tissues, the body will need time to heal. However, the time it takes to heal will be shortened since the cause of the ongoing damage has ended.
Are there side effects?
Biomagnetism is safe and non-invasive. Nothing is taken into the body. Each person's reactions may be different. Some notice immediate improvement. Their body feels more at ease. Often, the symptoms disappear completely.
Occasionally, a healing crisis may occur within the first 48 hours. This is the body's way of cleansing itself of toxins and dead microorganisms. The duration and severity of symptoms varies depending on your overall health and what the body is clearing out. It can last a few minutes, a few hours, or a few days.
Many people do not experience a healing crisis. If you do, avoid taking medications for it and let it run its course. The magnets create an environment for healing, and your body knows how to heal itself.
History of Biomagnetism and its founder, Dr. Isaac Goiz
Biomagnetism, or Biomagnetic Pair Therapy, is a therapeutic system developed by Isaac Goiz Duran of Mexico 30 years ago. In 1988, Dr. Goiz attended a seminar on bioenergy at the University of Guadalajara medical school with Dr. Richard Broeringmeyer, who worked with NASA, measuring and testing the early astronauts before and after going on space missions.
Dr. Broeringmeyer noticed that the astronauts would come back to earth with a leg shortened. After some experimenting, he discovered that applying magnets to their bodies would restore the length of the legs to normal.
Dr. Goiz was intrigued and began experimenting with this concept. A patient with an advanced case of AIDS was available, so he placed magnets on different parts of his body and checked the length of the legs each time. When he placed the magnet on the thymus, the leg shortened.
It occurred to him that magnetic poles come in pairs, always a north pole and a south pole. He took a second magnet and, using the opposite pole, looked for a place on the body where he could bring balance to the leg lengths. He found this spot on the back side of the body, near the rectum.
When Dr. Goiz saw the patient a week later, he was without his previous symptoms. He has been free of AIDS for many years. This was the first Biomagnetic Pair discovered by Dr. Goiz. Since 1988, he has continued to identify and map Biomagnetic pairs and now there are more than 250 known pairs.
What to expect from your Biomagnetism Session
Plan for 2 hours. It varies from person to person and the time could be shorter.
During the session the client remains fully clothed, including shoes. Please wear closed-heeled shoes and remove electronic devices from the body.
The client lies on a massage table with his/her feet hanging over the end. The therapist holds the feet and introduces a gentle rocking motion while naming about 200 points on the body. When a polarized point is found, magnets are strategically placed over the locations and the scan continues. By observing a shortening or lengthening of the leg, the practitioner can discover where polarizations are present.
Once the scan is completed and the magnets placed on the body, the client must lie on the table with the magnets in place while the depolarization of the biomagnetic pairs is completed. The time it takes varies from person to person, but can take between half an hour and 2 hours. During this time, the client may rest or sleep or receive another type of therapy, like CranioSacral Therapy, Acupressure, or Reflexology.
When the leg length stays the same with the removal of one magnet of the pair, this means that depolarization is complete and balance is restored. If the magnets are removed before that time, the technique is ineffective. Once the pairs are depolarized and the magnets are removed, the session is complete.
Most people need only 3 sessions of Biomagnetism, taken about a week apart. However, if a severe condition or long standing chronic illness is present, more sessions may be needed to get the maximum benefit.
For preventative measures and optimal health, a series of three sessions every six months is recommended.
