When treating a person for pain It is not possible to separate mind/body/spirit

I came into body work late in life. After 28-years as an engineer the call to do something different awakened interests long forgotten. Integrating what I learned as an operating room technician while I was an undergraduate with the problem solving skills of engineering the fascinating world of bodywork opened up a whole new world for me.

I came into body work late in life. After 28-years as an engineer the call to do something different awakened interests long forgotten. Integrating what I learned as an operating room technician while I was an undergraduate with the problem solving skills of engineering the fascinating world of bodywork opened up a whole new world for me. 


I hold a patent for instrumentation that reads the subtle energy generated during energy healing. My PhD integrated physiology, psychology and electrical engineering....a blend that has only come into its own in recent years. 

The work I provide incorporates elements of structural engineering, looking for the place where the body is aligned and free from undue stress. The techniques I use are based in current science related to physiology and facial research. Styles are integrated based on what the tissue needs to return to normal function; that may be a session with as many as six different approaches to bring the body back into alignment. 

Beyond the hands on bodywork I read and work with the subtle energies. My training incorporates spiritual / shamanic approaches to bringing an individual back into balance. My training started with a Hawaiian Kahuna named David Kaonohiokala Bray (Daddy Bray) when I was in my early 20 s. Since that time I've studied with a number of healers and sages taking what works and applying it to my clients as needed. 

I have over 2000 hours of accredited training:
Neuromuscular therapy - Paul St. John (therapist to Miami Dophins)
Medical Massage -- Dale Perry (therapist to US Olympic Swim Team, Seattle Sonics, Stanford swim and dive teams) 
Lymphatic Drainage - Klose

Persistent work until the problem was resolved

I've been seeing Diane for over a year. Every session is different depending on what's needed, and she can always tell what's needed right off the bat. So, our sessions are always effective and thorough.

Diane has an exceptional tool set at her disposition. I guess it is because she has continued to study for years about various methods of healing, physical and emotional. She can fins what is ‘stuck’ and puts it back or repairs it, it’s hard to explain, and I feel rejuvenated when I leave. Or sometimes tired because my body still has work to do to complete a repair she initiated. Most of the time, I wish I could stay an hour on the table after she is done because I reach a state of relaxation I can’t reach anywhere else ! She is a pearl !

Diane physically after many sessions cleared a block lung that medically with western medical failed-it was life changing.

I appreciated that Diane was able to remove the pain from my body with ease. It makes me feel safe to go into that dark place.

Persistence in solving the issue

Diane was clear and helpful in her communication, and her experience and professionalism are apparent from the moment one connects with her. I recommend her as a highly-skilled and gifted practitioner to both newcomers to energy healing and to those with many years or decades of experience receiving and working with energy healing processes.
