What is a Session Like?
When you schedule a session with Dr. Davie, you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire to determine what issue to treat and the underlying issues you may be dealing with. Most problems can be treated in one or two sessions, though larger issues may require additional sessions. A typical session starts with centering exercises that Dr. Davie guides you through to align the brain with the heart, so we can figure out what your goals are for the session. During the session, you are guided through a practice to release the problem. You will touch certain points on your face, trunk and/or limbs and focus on certain words, phrases, stories, or repeating statements. Sometimes Dr. Davie uses Bi-lateral sound recordings and/or bilateral kinesthetic stimulation to activate both sides of the brain.
At the end of the session, we evaluate the problem and compare how you feel to how you felt when you came to the session. Most patients report high rates of improvement. If an additional session is needed, follow up is scheduled in a timely manner.
What happens during the session?
When we work on a problem, sometimes I may ask some questions to get some details about the issue and what is the most difficult or challenging part of it. You may be surprised at what comes up. I listen carefully to what you say, how you feel and what comes up for you. From there I help guide you through steps that will clear the problem.
During the session you may experience a deeper more relaxed breath and you know something changed. The fear is gone, there is trust and confidence instead. Sometimes you may yawn, sigh or shed gentle tears or release. Sometimes it seems like nothing special is happening but you no longer experience the painful emotions that you used to feel and you just feel more peaceful.
After the session, you may find that things or people that triggered you, no longer trigger you. You are at peace when you would have responded with pain, anger, shame or guilt. You might find more joy and be more aware of your emotions.
Occasionally, something else may surface after a session, and it becomes an sign that something else needs work and it becomes and opportunity to resolve it as well.
How do I know it worked?
When you feel a sense of completion, a sense of peace, contentment and satisfaction. You feel honored and respected and your feelings are acknowledged and accepted unconditionally. When you come with persistent or unsurmountable grief over the loss of someone dear, you know you are healing when you no longer feel that same void, that grief, that heaviness in the chest, and you can remember the good times and feel lighter and at peace with life and joy.
You know it worked when the symptoms you experienced dissolve, your no longer react to old triggers, you no longer crave foods you used to crave, you loose excess weight without working at it, when you no longer feel pain, when you feel confident taking an exam or speaking in front of an audience, when you can express yourself and honor yourself and listen to you own heart.
Will I stop or change my medications?
The work we do does not involve medications or surgery. Only your primary care doctor or specialist can make that decision with you. When your medical condition improves, your doctor will know and be able to determine whether changes in the medical regimen is in your best interest.
How can this help with surgery?
Surgery is a stressful event on the body. Preparing the body and mind for surgery will help decrease the anxiety, the need for pain medication and anesthetic drugs during the surgery and recovery can be faster and more complete. People who had a session with me before surgery often surprised and delighted their doctors and nurses at how fast they recovered. They were able to return to work sooner as well.
