Testimonials"Heather came to our house and was absolutely wonderful, our dogs loved her! She not only validated some of our concerns with the dogs but also gave extra information that the dogs spoke to her. She relayed what the dogs were saying as they were saying it. She also did some energy work on my dogs legs and the result is he is not limping today. We highly recommend her services. If you want a better understanding and connection with your animals then Heather is definitely the person for you." -Ky McElroy, Google Review 5 Stars 10/31/2020 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I have experienced Heather twice now and will again in the future. I needed to get myself grounded again so that I could help my family members. Heather gives so much of her energy that you leave feeling energized and at peace." -David Foster, Google Review 5 Stars 02/25/2020 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Thank you for sharing your healing energy. I notice my back feels much less pressure. I'm enjoying my morning yoga and just practiced Searmanas. I'm grateful. As the hours progress, my body feels so much stronger. It's very wonderful. I haven't had this much peace in my spine and neck in years. I can't express how I feel for finally starting. It's so good." -Janelle T., Education, Text Messages 12/24/2019 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Hey just want to thank you dearly for yesterday. I got a lot out of the experience.

Wish you so many blessings." -Nick, Safety Inspector, Text Messages 10/18/2019 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I'd never experienced Reiki before, and didn't know what to expect, but I was open and curious about what the experience could bring into my life. Heather was a wonderful conduit and I enjoyed the entire session. Her presence is very healing. I recommend Heather to anyone who is open to new experiences and what they gift you!" - TG, True Rest Manager, Google Review 5 Stars 10/13/2019 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Heather was so welcoming and has great energy. I left her office feeling renewed and relaxed. Will definitely be back!" -Cheryl B., Facebook Review 5 Stars 08/24/2019 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Joint Pain Relief I had reiki in the 90s, wasn't impressed. Currently I'm fighting cancer. With that comes a lot of joint pain. I read an introduction that Heather did on herself. My interest was piqued. Someone that could relieve my pain without medicine. I had to try reiki again. One session and I already notice a reduction in pain. What a power session!! I was so relaxed I fell asleep! I'm sold on Heather. Such a kind soul. I highly recommend you giver her a try." -RaeDean W., Trusted Site Review 5 Stars 2018 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “Grateful I’ve known Heather sense she was a young girl, and over the years we've become friends, as I have been somewhat of a mentor, I have also been supportive of her journey. We now enjoy an adult friendship. I was recently diagnosed with cancer & began a 7 week course of chemotherapy and daily radiation. During Thanksgiving I took a serious turn for the worse and was hospitalized for 5 days with a dangerously low white count, & potassium, high fever and infection. Heather drove to the hospital and did a session with me. Shortly after the session began I was pain free, and my mind went to happy places. I felt serene, relaxed, and experienced a sense of joy. Her energy profoundly & in positive ways effected mine, with a clarity that perforated the fog of pain medications. I felt stronger just by being freed from how I felt. The positives lingered into the night & the next day. You do not need to believe, you only need to be open if you are a skeptic. For me as someone with cancer, it certainly helped, and I am forever grateful to Heather for the effort she made to be there as my friend, and for working her magic on me and providing me a reprieve from the pain. I had been engulfed in being sick, and I was released into a better head space, and physically freed from the pain and discomfort. It was a jump start into a better mind set, & reinforced my strength to heal.” -Joanna McVay, Owner/Dance Instructer, “Joanna’s Kids R It”, Trusted Site Review 5 Stars 2018 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have been going to ATA for a few months before seeing Heather, so I actually had something to measure her against. She passed! I could walk in feeling like a train wreck and leave feeling good." -Richard G. Strom, Patient, A Therapeutic Alternative, Facebook Post 2017 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “This evening, Heather Rugg, and I did a healing session. Initially I was hesitant, but then amazed and elated, and safe. I can't describe it, the feelings of elation and weightlessness my soul and spirit are feeling. I've been clogged for awhile. And have (been) it very quite about it all. But now, after our session, I feel beautifully open again. I'll keep the rest, because it was very personal to me. But, I will say, if you're feeling heavy, clogged, confused or conflicted, or anything else weighing you down, do yourself a favor and give this amazingly talented woman a call. It's such an incredible experience." -Shinea Em, Teacher, Facebook Post 2017 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
