 Patricia Pedersen, ND(c), A.C.H.
Advanced Clinical Hypnotist
A deeply spiritual and open individual, Patricia discovered she had a gift over fifteen years ago: it all started with a bird at Death’s door. Through prayer and the wondrous power of God, she was a conduit of healing. For the first few years she focused her gift on healing animals, helping out various animal rescue organizations.
After years of researching the history of healing and healing techniques from various cultures around the globe, she was able to hone her natural abilities and learned ways of utilizing her gift for maximum results. Though Patricia has her Reiki certification, she has found that through the power of prayer and divine guidance she is drawn to areas that are in need of healing and has developed a unique technique all her own.
She has even, through continued diligence to improve upon her gift, been able to heal others across distances. Through extreme concentration of her energy and focus on an individual she has been able to send her healing touch across the miles. Her gift of healing along with her inexhaustible supply of patience, understanding and a genuine desire to help others has led her to successfully heal people and animals alike with phenomenal results. Although humble and modest about her gift, Patricia’s ability is nothing short of spectacular.
Constantly looking to improve upon her gift and learn new things, Patricia started researching the benefits of hypnosis and other modalities of healing. Soon after, she took a course on hypnosis and the rest was history. Now a Certified Advanced Clinical Hypnotist, Patricia is something akin to a modern day shaman. Her spirituality combined with her natural healing abilities and knowledge as well as her hypnosis certification has enabled her to tailor custom healing sessions for each individual in order to obtain maximum beneficial results.
Patricia is a Certified Acupressurist which permits her to incorporate various modalities and techniques into her healing. Patricia, while proficient in working with ‘on-on-one’ hypnosis sessions, is also a group ‘Weight Management & Stress Management Specialist’. She is presently completing her studies in pursuit of her diploma as a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine.

Michael Cermignano
Licensed Massage Therapist
Michael studied and also taught massage at the Swedish Institute in New York City. He has employed many bodywork modalities during the 13 years he has been a massage therapist, but prefers now to focus on following his internal guidance rather than prescribed methods when working with clients.
Many massage clients don’t realize that they are actively participating in their healing during and after a massage. Michael finds that most clients are ready to focus on 1 to 3 specific areas of their body during a session. These are areas where painful patterns may be released along with non-supportive thoughts and beliefs, or where parts of self that have fractured due to trauma may be retrieved and integrated.
Nature provides tones or vibrations to assist us in our healing. Michael encourages his clients to allow the application of specific essential oils to targeted areas to illuminate and clarify the issues that clients are addressing in those areas. The essential oils provide specific vibrations that balance the body, and facilitate healing during and after the massage.
