Shamanic Healing Services

Shamanism is a school of spiritual techniques that have been used by indigenous cultures since before written history. Many indigenous cultures that survive today continue to utilize shamanic practices within their community. When used for healing, shamanism offers a venue for deep work to happen. Primary focuses include the restoration of personal power that has been lost or depleted, the removal of harmful energy that may be embedded or attached to a person, and the balancing of our soul. The primary goal is to affect the proper spiritual shifts so that the emotional, physical, and mental healing can take place. It is important to remember the shamanic practitioner is simply a facilitator of healing; he or she is a willing vessel for the healing to move through. The true healing happens through the client and through the healing spirits that are invited in for the work.

A Shamanic Healing session is a healing process that encompasses many shamanic healing techniques. It facilitates healing on physical, mental, and emotional levels for a client. It’s important to remember that a Shamanic Healing session are a catalyst for healing and not a cure by themselves, just as the shaman practitioner is a facilitator for healing and not a “healer”. Connection with guides, spirit helpers, and spirit worlds is done by the practitioner on behalf of the client.

Healing ceremonies start with an extended period of spiritual counseling and divination to help the client get to the root of their situations and to understand the wounds that are in need of healing.

A healing session will work with multiple healing techniques such as Limpia: A purification ceremony from Central and South America to cleanse the energy body of dense energy. The client is swept down with fans of sacred plants and sprayed with flower waters while Icaros (healing songs) are sung.

Extraction Healing: A process which removes harmful energy intrusions from within a person and transmutes that energy so that it can no longer do harm to the person.

Spirit Doctoring: The healing spirits are channeled so that the client may receive the healing presence of these benevolent beings directly. This is usually administered with gentle “laying of hands” and medicine songs.

Drum and Rattle Doctoring: The soul doctoring sprits will often come through vibrations of drums and rattles to heal a person. The vibrations of these instruments break up dense energy and carry power from the spirit world into this one.

Soul Retrieval: This is a process of returning fragmented stifled, or “lost” aspects of a person to them to restore wholeness of the soul. Through trauma, extended neglect, or mistreatment we may suffer from what is known as Soul Loss. This is a sense of feeling like a part of us is missing or no longer accessible. We may feel “numb” inside, apathetic about life, or as if we are a passenger in our own body. Through Soul Retrieval a shaman enters a trance state to find these missing or fragmented parts of the soul and return them to a client with the aid of the healing spirits.
