Healing Touch

Picture
Gentle touch assists in balancing your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.

Healing Touch works with your energy field to support your natural ability to heal. It is safe for all ages and works in harmony with standard medical care.

Healing Touch is a regular part of my Monday Restorative class that can be attended through Downtown Desert Yoga scheduling. The first part of the class is Restorative yoga. The second half is a long luxurious shavasana. During the shavasana I will move around the room and give each person a brief healing touch experience suited to their preference and as time allows.

Private treatments are available in my peaceful home. The first session is $100. You'll be asked to complete a brief intake form and your treatment will be tailored to your specific needs. After the session a summary of the treatment will be provided to you by email. All following sessions are $90.

Please contact me to set up a treatment appointment.

Below is a testimonial from Marlane that provides some clarity on what a Healing Touch treatment entails:

"As a part of my personal journey to increase self-awareness and self-healing, I participated in my first ever Healing Touch session today. Annie Muriel is amazing! I have been participating in a weekly restorative yoga class with Annie for the past couple of months. She includes a brief Healing Touch encounter for each attendee during every class, so I wasn’t really apprehensive about attending the full session, since I knew a smidgen of what it might include.

Initially, Annie offered me water to drink while she obtained a brief medical history. She also provided a succinct explanation of the Healing Touch process and how it can interface with western medicine (she is also a registered nurse). She was happy to answer my questions. I was asked to identify my personal goals expectations from the session.

I remained fully clothed throughout the session and was laying initially face-up and later face-down on a massage table. Oceanic sounds were playing in the background. The treatment part of the session lasted approximately 60 minutes.

The treatment began with an evaluation of my Chakras (starting at the feet and moving up). Annie recorded these pre-treatment observations.

During the treatment session, I felt a deep sense of relaxation with an awareness of Annie’s movements, consisting of a light physical touch and sweeping or swirling hand motions over parts of the body. My eyes were closed and at times I envisioned slowing changing colors.

At the culmination of the session, I felt a deepened spiritual connection. I felt supported and nurtured. I am aware that research shows that Healing Touch enhances the body’s healing process, so I’m interested to see if particular physical issues begin to improve as well.

When the treatment was completed, Annie shared her post-treatment observations and recorded them. She recommended a particular meditation technique I can use daily to address my flow of energy, along with a daily yoga position I could use to improve blood pressure.

I would highly recommend Annie Muriel’s Healing Touch! She is knowledgeable professional--informative, thorough and focused. But more important than that, Annie is sincerely caring. With her soft voice and radiant smile, it was like being touched by an angel."
