I love my weekly visits with Sydney!

I love my weekly visits with Sydney! It isn't just because she is who she is, which is part of it, but of all the fun things we do. She has endless curiosity and there is always something new. Of course there is the acupuncture, which is part of my wellness program, but also I love the relaxing Reiki healing and other things she has to offer. I always leave her office feeling rejuvenated.

My symptoms are pretty much gone.

I've been struggling with hormone imbalance with many symptoms that are especially difficult around my periods, and fluctuate a lot. I had muscle aches and pains, terrible headaches, I couldn't sleep, my heart pounded at times. It used to be that I just had terrible premenstrual symptoms, but then it seemed that I had fluctuating symptoms that went on all month long. After my last treatment with Sydney I felt a real sense of balance. My symptoms are pretty much gone. I feel like this entire month I've had a smooth cycle with no flare-ups.

Feeling the light!… Distance doesn’t mean much does it?

Good work Sydney! Distance doesn't mean much does it? As I was laying down I was trying to attract the energy into me, feeling it between my hands like you showed me. About halfway into it, I placed my hands on my chest and felt this current of white light coming in through my forehead and moving into my heart center. It was flowing with such power and grace, I felt enveloped in a warm white cocoon. What amazed me was how much it was flowing and moving into me, and not exiting, just being absorbed into my heart and torso.

Sydney is very nurturing in session and the results are measurable!

I was feeling low of energy and not like myself before I had a treatment with Sydney. I saw immediate results. I left her office feeling more alive and connected to myself and to source. I noticed a huge change later that week; I was able to receive better. My connections to others became stronger. Over the next few weeks of being treated by Sydney, I saw a huge shift in my life. Sydney is very nurturing in session and the results are measurable!

No matter how my daughter feels before her appointments, she always walks out of the appointment feeling calm, balanced and happy.

“You look so much younger!”

After receiving facial toning sessions from Sydney, I met with a male friend of mine. He said, ” Wow! What have you been doing? You look so much younger!” He then lifted my hair on both sides and looked behind my ears. I said what are you doing? He said, “Looking to see if you have had a facelift!” I laughed but he was serious. Every few months when I have a “tune-up” He says the same thing.

My mind is clearer and I am feeling great.

The SLRS treatment that Sydney gave me the other day was amazing. Before the treatment, I was feeling anxious and overwhelmed and had been reacting negatively to things that were going on in my life. Now, things aren't bothering me as much-they just roll off me. My mind is clearer and I am feeling great. Thank you!

I always feel so relaxed and energized at the same time after a treatment.

Sydney, I trust your judgement and I know you are keenly observant. I always feel so relaxed and energized at the same time after a treatment (with the added bonus of not feeling a drug hangover). All my doctors are very supportive of "alternative treatments" so I am happy I have that support. I think, personally, it's the mat with the goggles and sound therapy that have been most helpful. I appreciate your time, dedication and expertise. You are indeed a special person.

I trust her completely, I am happy to have her as my healer

When I first met Sydney I felt she was kind and deeply caring. Being a Healer by myself I mostly practiced selfhealing if anything out of balance. Now if I want support I call Sydney. I see in her the wisdom of an ancient Chinese Master -- I trust her completely.

I enjoy the way she combines her sessions with her own way of perceiving what I need. I enjoy her insights and what she tells me is every time surprisingly " right on".

I was in so much pain

I was in so much pain for weeks after the surgery I had, until Sydney fixed it. I was taking tylenol all day. Certain times of day it would hurt so much. After she worked on me, I even forgot about it.
I also used to have acid reflux before Sydney started treating me for it.
I don't have that anymore either.

The stress of this year's holiday was emotionally, very, very hard on me and I felt like I was going to loose my mind.

The techniques Sydney uses work immediately, and the effects are long-lasting.

I originally sought treatment from Sydney after many years of severe tension in my back. I was regularly in pain and had become so used to that being the norm that I had learned how to function with chronic back pain. I will never forget getting home and lying down after my first treatment. I did not have to shift around due to discomfort; I had laid down on my back without pain for the first time in years. The techniques Sydney uses work immediately, and the effects are long-lasting.

Sydney’s work was what kept me together and functional

My husband of 35 years was diagnosed with cancer in November 2015. A friend told me to go have regular sessions with Sydney. I needed something for the stress, so I took her advice. Michael died in mid-June, after 7 1/2 intense months. Sydney's work was what kept me together and functional during those difficult times. Every time I had to miss a session I noticed the difference in my reduced ability to cope. I highly recommend Sydney!

My nine year old daughter has had severe eczema and food sensitivities since she was 2 years old. We had tried so many modalities and healers with no results. Within just a few NAET sessions with Sydney, her eczema is nearly gone! (and we had tried NAET with someone else) Many thanks, Sydney!
