CranioSacral Therapy and Shamanic Sessions

Your treatment was the most profound, powerful and well-attuned treatment I have ever experienced.  I felt your energetic connection with mine immediately. You have helped me reconnect on a spiritual plane, while addressing my needs to explore and grow. Your endearing personal yet professional approach was both encouraging and empowering.  You are a very special person and a gifted practitioner on very many levels.  I feel blessed to have you in my life. I shall recommend you wholeheartedly and without reservation. Eddi Lynn, 2009

After my husband’s death I was barely here.  I walked around in a state of semi-consciousness and physical exhaustion.  I had cared for him for months before his passing. Your presence and skill with my process was astounding.   And, probably one of the most unusual happenings since the soul retrieval, I had my eyes examined and my eyesight has improved! I am forever grateful that through your work I finally feel rid of the pain I took on during that time. Melissa, 2004.

Each time I leave a session with Stephanie, I am in awe at her ability to again and again provide me with a life changing experience. Her intuitive gifts and sincere nature in combination with her multitude of skills provide a rare and beautiful opportunity for self-reflection and healing. I have grown in ways I never imagined possible under her loving guidance. C. Howe 2005

Stephanie rocks. She is professional and thoughtful. She guides me through what I believe to be some of my most challenging times with inspiration and confidence. Often she seamlessly merges what I verbalize with what my body is telling her, synergistically combing spiritual, emotional, and physical healing. I have never left her office without feeling a great sense of self worth and accomplishment. 
 
Both my children and husband now also see Stephanie. My husband is not a person to embrace any type of healing, medical or alternative. After repeated visits to the doctor to identify a foot pain, he saw Stephanie and was astounded when he walked out of her office pain-free. We both saw Stephanie after major surgeries and shocked our doctors with our recoveries. Only one week after major nose and throat surgery I had a craniosacral session and I was able to stop my prescription painkillers. My surgeon was so impressed with my progress that he asked me back for two additional appointments to further document my success. I gave Stephanie all the credit. C. Livingston

Through my sessions with Stephanie, I have come to a deeper understanding of my body, myself and my true purpose. Stephanie has a real ability to hold space while I experience emotional release and has a real compassion for the human condition. I feel heard on multiple levels. Every session is time well spent and puts me in touch with my soul, my deepest self. - J. Vaughn

I cannot sum up the totality of my experience with Stephanie by merely listing our successes. Recently a friend asked me why I felt so strongly about our work together. I found myself searching for the words to describe the range of emotions I've felt in her care; from the joy of touching my true being to the tears of relief as the tension leaves my body. I felt the word I wanted: love. Stephanie embodies unconditional and compassionate love for her work, her gifts, her vision, and thus for our path. No other healer has ever offered me more. And with Stephanie's help, I am learning to offer it to myself. Thank you Stephanie!  Clay, 2006

Stephanie is a gifted, intuitive healer which allows me to completely trust the craniosacral work. When I am on the table in Steph’s care, I can finally surrender to both my own inner landscapes and the wisdom of my body’s sensations. After a session, I feel centered, euphoric and detoxified for days. A session with Stephanie is one of the best things I can do to honor myself.

Stephanie Foy is a body worker of extreme integrity and sensitivity. Her intuitiveness comes thru her hands directly from her heart and her work is strong. Stephanie's work is free of ego allowing the client to benefit from her extensive training and natural abilities. It is a session one wishes would never end. - T. Auchincloss 2001

Theta Healing

I was having extreme vertigo. I had been in bed for over a week. I was beginning to feel depressed and I was also very nervous. I am so happy and amazed to say that after one session it all vanished! I don't understand this work, but I cannot deny the results! Thank you, and my family thanks you. Lynn 2008

I'm so excited and relieved since our session. I feel like we got to the root cause of my anger. Finally! I feel ten years younger and full of energy. Today I went running and gardened and I'm planning a dinner party for tonight. I know that wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for this work. And I'm so happy to know that wherever we move I can still have a session with you. Eva, 2008

The pain I was having in my ear literally disappeared in minutes. I am still in awe at how the beliefs you discovered were connected to how I had been feeling - I didn't even know they were there, but since I became aware and they left, I feel so much more freedom in my body. I also have to say that the same evening we worked together, my husband told me how much he appreciated me, which was something we worked on! Thank you. Linda Z.

In our first session you removed a band around my middle. Since then my digestion and elimination has been great. I used to need to take cleansing herbs almost daily. I haven't needed to do that since you removed the band. WOW! This work just blows me away! Christine 2008

When I made the appointment to see you, Stephanie, it was purely out of curiosity inspired by the rave reviews of my neighbor, Chris, who had done some work with you. I had no expectations of what was "supposed" to happen. I certainly didn't expect to see the connections you made possible by gently opening my mind's eyes, reminding me of the areas I need to pay special attention to, helping me "let go" of perceptions and beliefs that had become second nature despite my own insistence to the contrary.   I was able to fully experience the uncomfortable thoughts and emotion-provoking aspects of your work because of the safety you mindfully created when we met. By describing several of the images you received while working with me, I was joyfully reminded of the beauty and grace of simply being alive. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world. Jen K. 2008

The phone session I did with you was more powerful than any of the work I've done thus far on my healing journey. I've been on this path for a number of years and I believed that each session was peeling more of the onion. The gentleness, depth and speed of this work is astounding to say the least. In one hour we covered more ground than I have covered with several methods in years. Denise 2007

Thank you! You balanced my hormones (I was having bad PMS). After the healing my stress dissipated, I felt clear minded, happy and in control. These were the opposite feelings I had prior to the appointment. In addition, two days after the healing i got my period which was a week early. The period was lighter, and shorter by almost 3 days. I was very happy and impressed. Tammy 2007

I didn't expect to have a conversation with my brother, who died when I was in college. How did you know? There were things you couldn't possibly have known to tell me. I am so blessed by this interaction. It has been such a long time coming. Thank you for your gift. Thank you for saying what's not easy to say. I needed to hear it all. I feel like I can finally move forward, and the grief has lifted. P.K. 2008

I hurt my ankle at work and not having health insurance I was worried. I thought I had at least badly sprained it and would need crutches. Then I started to obsess about how long I'd be out of work and not able to earn money. Theta is awesome. By the next day I didn't even remember the injury. Scott P. 2008

I'm writing to say that I am basking in the light of my discovery. All that I have ever wanted in my life is to MATTER. It was always there in my heart but I believed that being a MAT was my starting point since the word WORTHY was not an option. Stephanie, you have helped me turn that MAT over and into a golden carpet with indigo fringe that soars beyond any expectations. I am free! Free to feel my power, trust in who I am, just in time for the best years are yet to come. Thank YOU Lise 2008

My entire life I feel like nobody understood me. You understood me and you helped me understand that was a belief I had. I feel loved and loveable for the first time ever and it feels delicious. Its changed how I relate to others already. This work is so important. Gene L. 2008

When my friend insisted I call you for a session, I knew it would be good, but I didn't know HOW good. The reading you gave blew me away. It was so accurate. I was feeling so stuck. The clutter in the living room was overwhelming. You saw it! I don't know HOW, but you saw it. You detailed my relationship with my husband and the trip we were planning to a tee. I now feel like I have the energy and the clarity to do what needed doing and the new beliefs to support me. Not to mention my killer migraine that usually lasts three days was GONE by the end of the session. My friend was right, you have a very special gift. Amy 2008

Sound Journey

I recently had the chance to work in person with Stephanie Foy, after having done Theta sessions by phone with her. I was experiencing a crisis—a real live crisis, and she was the healer I turned to, to help me emerge.

She suggested we do something called "Sounding" which involves releasing through sounds. I wasn't aware of it but I agreed, trusting her judgment implicitly. So, I packed the car and headed to Vermont.

I had only planned to stay two days but I ended up staying five days. The time there with her became sacred time; I'll never forget this time.

I lay on the table and followed her instructions. "Just start making some sounds. Listen to your body." Very simple. Anyone can do this. There's no special way, no tones, no pitches, no particular harmonies involved. All one needs is a voice, a willingness to try and a deep desire to heal what is troubling one. And a love and respect for what the body can reveal to us. A sense of adventure will help propel you into unexpected places.

This "making sounds" from the body opened me to incredible things that were inside me. This opens those doors very quickly. Your present life experience mixes with other things, some of which seemed to be previous lives; you can call them what you will. The emotions flood out, if you allow them. I can recall that relief.

I tried keeping a diary of our sessions. Good luck locating the words for this swirling experience. You can see some terrible things, things you've done, things done to you. You can see your "inner relationship" with mother and father. You can see how you feel towards God, towards yourself as a soul, and the relationship therein. You can face some hard truths. You're giving yourself the time and tenderness to go into primal places. This therapy is simple, profound. Things happen, right away.

Stephanie Foy is the kind of healer we're fortunate to have with us. It's glaringly obvious her practice is guided by love. And compassion. This Toning technique is being developed by her, in her way. There are no preconceptions. What happens is what arises from you, the client, in every moment. Being a creative healer she allows chaos to have its space… the unexpected. Her sense of freedom as a healer makes you feel free, makes you surrender to the sounds, the feelings. She guides you all the way. When you return from each "sound journey" she is there, in truth and love, standing with you in the new places that you've come. It's a marvel, it truly is.

But be warned: These sessions may leave you with more questions (as I now read through my diary) than answers. Rather than a static and finished scenario though, these questions—born of passionate desire to understand one's soul—could be the trees that bear the fruit of prolific gardens.

Firewalk Testimonials

Moving, supporting, life changing!  I wasn't sure what to expect when I signed up for a firewalk – this was not what I expected – it was better!  Can’t wait for the next one.

Firewalking is an experience everyone should try.  The energy, release and togetherness I felt was amazing.  Afterwards I could see and feel the transformation in people.  I would absolutely do this again.

This was totally unbelievable.  I never imagined myself walking across fire!  I will never ever forget this experience.  The indoor exercises were incredible – I feel truly healed.  Words cannot describe my amazement.  I want my family to attend.

I've never experienced this level of trust in myself and my inner voice before.  Its so powerful!  Thank you beyond words.

It’s hard to put into words how I am feeling after this event.  Empowered, changed and happy!  I felt safe and supported the entire night.  The space held was incredible.

Tonight truly changed my life.  You truly made an impact on my life.  I will never need a picture to help me remember or describe this night – I will never forget it.  I want everyone to have the same experience I had tonight.  Thank you so much.

This was amazing, once in a lifetime do you have an experience like this. It will help me throughout my life.

This is my third firewalk with Stephanie, and as always, my experience with the fire and with Stephanie was invigorating, emotional and healing.  This night was special in that I shared it with friends and family.  Sharing this experience was also a reminder of the constant community that surrounds us. My deepest thanks.

This was magic!  I feel re-birthed.

Upon arriving at the firewalk my stomach was queasy with anxiety and anticipation. The mystery of the next few hours left me scared of the unknown. Questions were racing through my head, “Why am I here?” “Can I really do this?”  As the night unfolded, I let go of these uneasy feelings and allowed myself to rest upon the support of the group and trust in Stephanie. Through this support and trust I was able to participate in the workshop and firewalk ceremony wholly. After walking across the fire, I realized a POWER hidden within me. This power gave me strength to answer questions that had earlier brought fear. Because of this memorable Friday night, my new found power will be alive in me forever.

I  was there because of you Stephanie. Sitting around the circle, I was thinking-here I go again. I had no end in mind and no expectations, except to get burned. I was comfortable, I was frightened and excited but most of all I felt cared for-by you. Your presence as leader was firm, loving, directive and whimsical. My every ready bunny caregiver, supporter engines are always ready to fire but not at the fire walk. I was lulled into a space that I could look inside, relax and participate fully. It was a gift. The journey you lead me on from “not me” to “yes me” was thrilling, swift and joyous. I cannot thank you enough for all your work, so that I may walk. (Maria)

It's hard to believe the firewalk was almost a week ago. It was an experience I will never forget- and would definitely do again. When my friends told me what to expect they also said it really will be your own experience. They were right. Even though they gave me an idea of what we were going to do, I never thought it would be what I got out of it. It amazed me how into it people are. I usually laugh at everything (nervous laughter) and I really took this seriously. To share the experience with others is fine, but they must know what they get out of it is very personal and no one will share the same experience. The firewalk is something everyone should try and learn from. Thanks for a great retreat last Friday! (Liz)
