Energy Private Sessions

Join us for one of our private, Vibrational Therapy-Energy Massage Sessions! A dynamic fusion of multi modalities that work with vibrations to initiate the body’s natural healing response. Sound therapy, Reiki, and Vibroacustics are just a part of this relaxing session.

“When I learned that Sheri was doing vibracoustic (sound and energy) therapy sessions, I signed up! Now I call it “sonic massage” because, as a practitioner and teacher of massage therapy, I understand the therapeutic benefits of balancing the mind and body on a deep cellular level. Turns out that the research for Sound Energy healing has shown many of the same remarkable results from reducing anxiety, pain, heart rate, blood pressure , healing time as well as balancing circulation, immune response, and brain wave activity. My own personal experience supports those claims! Comfortable, safe, noninvasive, and very effective.” BS

“Sheri Bestor is the best thing that has ever happened to my writing career. I have studied picture book writing diligently, attended meetings, critique groups and expensive conferences, yet I probed in the dark. Then I found Willow Words and Sheri Bestor. With unexpected warmth and inspiration, Sheri taught me more in one critique letter than I had learned in all my previous study combined. Furthermore, she has demonstrated a sincere interest in my development as a writer and individual.Thanks, Sheri for turning on the lights and taking an interest in my work.”
Daniel Welborn ~ Writer
