Integrative Health & Healing
Part of our mission at Heartwood is to offer a healing approach that integrates mental and physical health. Many health issues affect psychological and physical health at the same time. Physical illness and pain can cause intense emotion, distress and anxiety; and emotional issues can manifest as physical symptoms or contribute to physical conditions. An integrative healing oriented approach focuses on the whole person and is beneficial for numerous issues affecting physical, emotional and mental health.
How it works:
An integrative approach takes into account and assesses all factors that affect health, including lifestyle, body, mind and emotions. The approach allows you to explore a variety of therapies and emphasizes the therapeutic relationship. Alongside treatment, positive strategies for self-care and managing your stress are paramount. Services which can be utilized include, but aren’t limited to, integrative medicine, psychotherapy, mindfulness coaching, acupuncture, reiki, tai chi, and yoga.
If you are seeking a more holistic approach to your health and wellness and want to learn how you can utilize and schedule integrative therapies, contact Marsha Smith, LCSW.

My major attraction and specialization is helping people who are in need to Elevate Consciousness through applying principles of Esoteric Acupuncture – a new direction in our Era of Existence in the modern world full of uncertainty – based on Ancient Eternal Teachings: a combination of Chakra Concept, Sacred Geometry, Sound Healing, Kabbalah philosophy to uplift your Spirit and get connected to the Unified Source of All where a profound Healing takes place.

I offer Acutonics Session through using Infinite Sound Healing Power of Tuning Forks that are connected and calibrated with the movements of the Planets. When these specific frequencies are applied to particular points on the meridians, it helps to bring the Heavenly Essence – Sacred Sounds – into the body to clear blockages, break apart old emotional patterns and clear the way to Liberation while still being here in the third dimensional world.
