Harmonic Resonance Therapies, LLC offers a variety of services including Vibrational Sound Therapy, Reiki, Acupoint-Tuning Fork treatments & Auricular Acupuncture using NADA protocol. The NADA Five Point Acupuncture Protocol is a standard, non diagnostic treatment for substance misuse and stress reduction. It involves placing disposable acupuncture needles into five ear (auricular) acupuncture points as stipulated by the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association for use within substance misuse and community treatment settings. The NADA protocol is a holistic treatment, non-verbal approach to healing that involves the placement of up to five small, sterilized disposable needles into specific locations on each ear. The recipients sit quietly in an individual setting for 30 minutes or group setting for 30-45 minutes.

What is the treatment used for? The treatment assists the withdrawal and detoxification process from toxic substances including drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. These withdrawal symptoms may include headaches, body aches, sweating, sleep disturbances, tremors, anxiety, anger, and depression. Regular treatments can help stabilize individuals physically and emotionally, increasing mental clarity and the ability to focus. It is a quiet, non-verbal, relaxing treatment. Additional benefits of auricular acupuncture include reduced cravings, reduction of withdrawal symptoms, relaxation, increased sense of calmness, decreased agitation, improved sleep and relief from stress and emotional trauma.

Mindbody Integrative Counseling, LLC services include: Individual counseling and psychotherapy, couple’s therapy, group therapy and when clinically indicated, can incorporate somatic Energy Modalities including EFT/meridian tapping.

Energy treatments are based on the theory that mental health & overall health of the physical body are related to altered flow & function in the body’s electrical energies & energy fields. Body tapping involves stimulation of specific acupoints on the body to facilitate clearing stagnation or blocked energy.

Energy Psychology is “a family of focused, brief, mind-body approaches to release stuck energy in the mind body system that usually is the result of unresolved small “t” or big “T” trauma”.

A holistic approach to mental health takes into account the biological, mental, emotional, behavioral , social and spiritual aspects of an individual’s life. The mind-body function in symbiosis, so the condition of one always affects the other. A holistic approach is an effective method for treating mental health conditions because it views the individual not as a generic problem to be solved, but as a unique human being who presents in response to the condition of the body/mind, environment and life experiences.

Invest in yourself! You are worth it!
