Energy Healing Sessions with Laura L. Mancuso, MS, CRC

Santa Barbara Energy Healing by Laura L. Mancuso, MS

What is Energy Healing?
•Energy healing is a holistic approach to body-mind-spirit wellness.

• During a session, the healer positions her hands several inches from the body. With the client’s permission, she may also lightly touch the outside of the client’s arms, legs, hands, and feet.

• The healer channels the universal life energy that is all around us, focusing it in response to the client’s request for healing. The healing energy flows where it is most needed. Energy healing removes energy blockages; overcomes physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual imbalances; and awakens the client’s self-healing powers.

• Just as each human being is unique, the result of energy healing is different for everyone. Most clients report feeling both deeply relaxed and simultaneously energized. Some have dramatic results, others more subtle. People with a wide range of conditions have been helped since the founding of the National Federation of Spiritual Healers over fifty years ago.

• Receiving energy healing on a regular basis is enjoyable, and is an excellent tool for maintaining optimal health. It is often helpful to receive three energy healing sessions (e.g., weekly) for assistance with a specific problem or issue. Monthly visits work well for ongoing health maintenance. My suggestion is that you come in for an initial visit and see how you like it and how your body, mind, heart, and spirit respond.

Frequently Asked Questions

If I come for energy healing sessions, should I stop seeing my doctor?

No. Spiritual healing is not a replacement for medical treatment. It may be viewed as an advanced form of self-care that supports your capacity to make use of other treatments.

Traditional Western medicine is very effective at resolving certain types of health problems and can be life-saving. However, it may be less effective at fully resolving chronic conditions or restoring individuals to full health. It may also expose patients to unwanted risks. People turn to energy healers to support their response to medical treatments and to resolve lingering symptoms that mainstream medicine cannot address. Energy healing has no side effects and can work alongside other treatments very readily.

Spiritual Councilor in Santa Barbara California by Laura L. Mancuso, MSIs this similar to Reiki or Healing Touch?

Yes, each of these modalities utilizes healing energy from the same universal Source, although the methods of preparation and practice differ somewhat.

How long does a healing session take?

Please allow up to 90 minutes for the initial session, as we will spend some time talking first. Subsequent sessions are less than one hour.

What should I wear to my appointment?

Anything that’s comfortable for you. Most often, clients rest on a massage table for their healing sessions. You can also be seated in a chair. You will be fully clothed at all times.

What are your fees?

The cost of a healing session is $80. Payment is made by check, cash, or PayPal. A sliding scale is available for people with significant financial hardship.

What is your background?

First and most importantly, I am a compassionate and non-judgmental human being. I have experienced and recovered from substantial physical illness and emotional loss myself. I would consider it an honor to be part of your healing process.

As for my formal training, I earned a Masters of Science (M.S.) Degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from Boston University in 1989, and have been nationally certified as a rehabilitation counselor since 1990 (C.R.C. Certification # 00007113). Rehabilitation counselors are trained to assist people in coping with illness and disability.

I completed an Internship in the Art of Spiritual Direction at Mercy Center in Burlingame, California in 2005 and was ordained as an interfaith minister in Berkeley, California in 2008 (www.chaplaincyinstitute.org). I am a Member of the National Federation for Spiritual Healers, known in the United States as Healing in America.

I welcome people of diverse cultures, races, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, and physical or mental abilities. My services are LGBT/Q friendly.

I honor all faith traditions, as well as the beliefs and life philosophies of those who do not adhere to any religion. I do not push my religion on my clients, and one does not need to hold any particular religious beliefs in order to be helped by energy healing.

Comments from Clients
 

"Laura Mancuso appeared in my time of need like a “Unicorn” offering support, gentle nudging, and inspiring faith through natural universal healing.

I saw Laura for two healings during the period when I was in intense grief and trauma from the sudden loss of my Mother. What happened was like a miracle. I experienced withdrawal from negativity as a result of this profound and powerful treatment.

Laura is a gentle individual who is motivated by a great desire to help, making a better safer place for her clients.

I was touched by the energy that Laura guided from head to toes like gentle electric current, thereby illuminating my inner core, leaving me feeling very balanced.

Healing took place both at physical and emotional level. I felt very safe on a soul level in the place that was created – very peaceful and harmonious.

Before seeing Laura, I would cry every night, wanting for my Mother to come to me and speak to me. After my first session with Laura I had a dream and I was communicating with my Mother. All of this occurred through the warmth, peace, and joy contained in Laura's healing practice."
- Nila Patel Shinday, Santa Barbara, CA

Laura has been helping me with two different pain issues over the last three years. These sessions are always very calming and provide true relief from the pain. I could feel the pain travel from the specific area we were concentrating on to go out of my body and to come to a pain free state that lasted for 30 minutes to days.”
- Judith M, Santa Barbara, CA

I've had two healing sessions with Laura Mancuso and I am eager to share with others the total peace and relaxation I experienced. During this quiet time I was able to relax and concentrate on eliminating the daily anxiety and worries about my health. This was a wonderful time when I felt inspired to think about my faith. I concluded that it is not necessarily believing God can help, but knowing that in his time he will.

Favorite Quotations

“The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen."
- Rachel Naomi Remen

“Illness is the night-side of life, a more onerous citizenship. Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick. Although we all prefer to use only the good passport, sooner or later each of us is obliged, at least for a spell, to identify ourselves as citizens of that other place.”
- Susan Sontag

“Compassion is an emotion of which we ought never to be ashamed.”
- Hugh Blair

"Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."
– Unknown

“It is true that, in all communication, kindness without honesty is sentimentality; but it is likewise true that honesty without kindness is cruelty. The genius of communication is the ability to be both totally honest and totally kind at the same time."
- John Powell

"You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”
– The Buddha

Energy Healing in Santa Barbara by Laura Mancuso“There is a vitality, a life-force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open....”
– Martha Graham

"There is a soul force in the universe, which, if we permit it, will flow through us and produce miraculous results."
- Mahatma Gandhi

"Don't worry about what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and do that. Because what the world needs are people who have come alive."
- Howard Thurman

“When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears.”
- Anthony Robbins

“If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, ‘thank you,’ that would suffice.”
- Meister Eckhart
