"Healing Island....when you can't escape to the tropics.
"
PERSONAL BACKGROUND
"Healing Island was born from a vision of health and wellness that came out of my
own
struggle with illness and disease", says owner, Anne Buchalski, LMT (Licensed Massage
Therapist).
After years of following allopathic recommendations; in my heart I knew that natural
and
alternative methods would bring me to a level of health and wholeness that I had been unable to
achieve
using accepted Western methods.
Using the techniques of Massage Therapy, Yoga, Meditation, Nutrition, Herbs, Flower Essences
and even
simply walking 2 hours per day, I was able to heal a chronic endocrine disorder and lose 120
pounds that
was a result of the disorder and side effects of the medications I had been given by doctors to
treat the
disorder.
From this "journey of healing" I realized that dedicating my efforts to helping others
heal themselves would be a fulfilling career and a great way to share my talents and energy.
Taking skills and information from my college days as a double major in Biology and Theatre Arts
(where I was first introduced to Bodywork), I added a 1 1/2 year course of study in Massage
Therapy at the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy (CCMT) and became a licensed Massage
Therapist. I currently am a faculty member at CCMT.
Additionally, I have become certified in Reiki, Rebirthing, Yoga Teaching, as an Herbalist and
Flower Essence Consultant, and have also had extensive study in Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Pranic
Healing, Chinese Energy Medicine, Meditation and numerous related topics. I am currently one of
only a handful of certified Self Controlled Energo-Neuro Adaptive Regulation (SCENAR)
therapists in the United States.
SERVICES OFFERED
This extensive background in the healing arts has allowed me to provide services ranging from a
wide variety of bodywork to energy techniques which include Reiki, Pranic Healing and Long
Distance Healing. Classes are available in yoga, meditation, Reiki and herbs as well as other health
and personal growth areas. I have a broad range of modalities available to assist people in
developing skills for self-care and self-nurturance as well as improving health (physical, emotional,
mental, spiritual) through the healthy pleasure of gentle, nurturing touch. I also speak to
businesses and professional groups on stress management and related topics.
Sessions are available in Westport on Fridays and Saturdays and in Mansfield the rest of the week
with a new class schedule 2 to 3 times per year. Sessions are by appointment and consultations
are available in the office as well as by phone. Classes can be arranged in other parts of the state. I
also offer multiple hands-on sessions for difficult cases (one LMT, one occupational therapist)
once a month in Ashford, CT.
Consultations, classes and seminars vary and fees will be provided upon request.
Payments are preferred by check or cash.
I know that it is possible for the process of becoming healthier to be an enjoyable, easy and fun
experience. I invite you all to join me on the journey to wellness!
