ARDYTHE J. PHILLIPS

As a graduate of the University of Rochester School of Nursing, a Board Certified Holistic Nurse & a Practitioner of Energy Therapies & the Healing Arts, I have been studying and practicing the art of Energy Medicine for over twenty years. My backgrounds includes a unique blend of conventional and integrative healthcare. I have come full circle from working with cardiac patients in the hospital setting to now working with individual clients in a more personal, individualized, heart-centered approach to the 'whole' healing process. Knowing that true healing begins from within, I facilitate each individual's unique process, assisting you with a person 'tool kit' to better manage your life, as your Body, Mind & Spirit come into balance and alignment with the true essence of your being.

My philosophy of care is reflected in the book 'Born to Serve' by Susan Trout. There is a dynamic partnership between the practitioner and the client, the server and the served. We become equal partners joined in a common purpose in which we support the emergence of one's highest potential, including the inherent capacity for self-healing. It is an evolving process that I have had the privilege to witness time and again.

Energy Therapy uses gentle/ near-body touch to clear, balance, energize & support the human energy system. The session is administered while the client lies on a treatment table or sits in a chair. Time can vary from 2 hours( initially) to 30 minutes. Energy Therapy is similar to an acupuncture physician who uses needles at specific points to release blockages and balance the energetic flow of the body..... I use my hands. The feedback from clients has always been very affirming.

My exposure to 'another way of being' through my affiliation with the American Holistic Nurses Association inspired me to become a wellness professional. As I pursued the path of Certification as a Holistic Nurse I was ultimately lead to the world of Energy Medicine. I have studied Reiki, Advanced Energy Healing, Soul Focused Healing and ultimately Healing Touch. This path ultimately has provided me a humbling avenue of service.
