Peaceful Spirit Client Testimonials
I was suffering for two weeks with a headache! The last 3 days before I was finally able to get a massage were so excruciating, I am not sure how I was functioning. I finally got in for a massage and say Ray, since that day I have not headache! Thank you so much!! SK
SCAR REDUCTION THERAPY w/ Talena De Baun L.Ac
“I had repeated abdominal surgery. The many external and internal scars were deep and hard, with general pain and tightness in the area. Talena’s scar reduction therapy took away the swelling and the pain, reduced internal adhesions, and the area is now soft and pliable” JW, Concrete Contractor
"A while ago I fell and cut my lip, which left an unsightly scar in the form of a hard swollen knot. Using dermal massage, very fine needles, and laser light, Talena’s scar reduction treatments were able to soften the scar so that it is now not even noticeable." MG, retired Border Patrol
Just wanted to say that I had a massage there in late March and it was the best massage I ever had in 25 years of getting massages. Unfortunately I don’t live in the area or I would be there regularly.
Thanks,
R. Neuman
Based on a recommendation I decided to try Peaceful Spirit for my Mind and Body work.
So let’s start from the beginning I’m a 47 year old male, 6’1”, about 170 lbs from the Midwest born with a medical condition called a pextus excavatum. Basically this is a condition where the chest wall is concave. I had surgery at the age of 24 to correct this problem; they broke 8 of my ribs and cracked my sternum in two places. A metal bar was placed temporally in my chest to help it heal. Six months later the bar was removed. During the last 6 or 7 years my chest wall has become what can best be described as flail chest-like, meaning that my ribs and sternum don’t work together, they work separately. This causes such issues as problems sleeping on my side, cramping in the chest wall, ribs moving around, poor oxygenation and what not. Over the years I developed very bad Gastroesophogeal Reflux Disease (GERD or acid reflux) so I was put on acid blockers for life, or so I was told. A little over a year ago I developed a hiatal hernia. I have been dealing with high cholesterol for many years and within the last 3 or 4 years my blood sugar has been climbing to high levels.
Up until about 3 years ago the past 35 years or so I have lived a very toxic life style; drinking alcohol, smoking, living almost exclusively off the three major food groups Burger King, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell. I also supplemented with processed foods of all kinds, pizza with extra cheese, white bread, more white bread, fried chicken, as much chocolate and ice cream as I could get my hands and then washing it all down with gallons of milk and soda pop. I would eat because I was happy, I would eat because I was sad, I would eat because I was board, I would eat just because I enjoyed the taste so why not eat some more. Although I did forget to mention one thing, I did not eat any fruits or vegetables. Now let’s throw in a lot of stress from work and life, add a bunch of being very hard on myself for every little thing I thought I did wrong and there you have it, me at 47. Don’t get me wrong I had a great time and many wonderful memories.
But it was time for a change.
Since moving to Tucson I have started a mind and body rebuilding process eating whole foods, organic foods, vegetables and fruit. The funny thing is to my surprise vegetables taste really good. Through recommendations I have seen several different practitioners here in Tucson every one of them I would recommend highly, they do incredible work and are very gifted.
However, the most life changing experience came through a recommendation to Peaceful Spirit. I was researching on the Peaceful Spirit web site which detailed visceral massage. Well, that seemed to be the perfect fit for all my stomach conditions so I called and made an appointment right away. Over the months that followed through visceral massage, cranio-sacral work, cerebral cortex work, diet change and some natural supplements, the reflux is under control with no medication. The hiatal hernia seems to be less of a problem. I have discovered or rediscovered to put it correctly my inner peace and we have reopened doors that must have been closed for a very long time.
With the other issues under control we have started to focus the work on my chest and I have started to see many positive changes. The main thing to remember with any of this kind of work is to open up to it, believe in yourself and listen to your body. Your body knows what it needs. We may wander off the path at times but stay true to your mind and body and it will help guide you to the right path.
Mara, Thank you for creating such a wonderful place to heal.
Mara,
I just wanted to let you know that I started getting massage consistently with you about 1.5 years ago. At that time I needed to take Vicadin all the time for chronic pain, the medication was terrible I couldn't function properly. Since receiving regular massage therapy at PS I no longer need to take any pain medication!

Thank you for the wonderful 1.5 hour Lomi Lomi massage. This has become one of my favorite styles of massage, and it was my delight to have found your professional service in this regard. You are the best Lomi Lomi practitioner I have had. Thank you!

Mara:
Your policy of scheduling 1 hour massages in 90 minute blocks truly puts the customer first. At Peaceful Spirit I'm not rushed in and out. I can calmly change clothes without losing massage time, and your staff can prepare and clean-up without taking away my time. That's not just peaceful, that's they way it should be done. At Peaceful Spirit you get what you pay for: 60 minutes is 60 full minutes. Thank you for your honesty.
Hana was simply superb. She didn't just ask me questions as though she was reading from a list. She listened and delved deeper and actually understood my medical issues.
Peaceful Spirit’s web address: www.TheBestMassageInTucson.com should be changed to: www.TheBestMassageInTheUSA.com because I've had massages all over and yours is the best. My only compliant is: I can't go weekly.

Alice's Qi Gong class is a grounding experience. I love the outdoor setting. Her descriptions and explanations excite me to practice. What a great gift to myself!
In Addition, I have been seeing Alice Adams for acupuncture treatments over the past 5 years. The shift I feel from whatever is eating me to a very settled flow is fascinating. Her skill, knowledge, and listening have made the acupuncture experience something that I know now will always be a part of my wellness program. I am forever grateful.
Sincerely,
Nancy J.
Dear Staff,
Thanks again for a wonderful relaxing experience. I'm sorry I forgot my therapist's name that day, however I promised to report back if the wrap helped the swelling in my leg. Yes, it did a little and every bit counts. My skin is still silky smooth from the wrap, a new experience for me.
Have a great week!

Subject: Every once in awhile you run into an incredible person
I probably wouldn't be alive if it weren't for this man. In 2008 he helped me crawl out of major pancreatitis that caused me to lose 30 lbs (dropping from 185 to 155). Through Dr. Reggie Stout's acupuncture, which was a total God-send, I was able to get back to 170 and work, etc. However, my adrenal gland never fully recovered and I relapsed in 4/2010. Again, when I thought all hope was lost and I couldn't eat anything and was down to 140 with all kinds of electrolyte and muscle deterioration, twitches, etc. God brought Reggie back into my life. At the time I was financially blown away by major stresses in my life, and just when I thought there was no hope, Dr. Reggie's
treatments have rebuilt my digestion and is slowly calming my adrenal gland. I'm up to 153 lbs. and some days are better than others.
I'm looking forward to getting some answers from the MRI of the adrenals on Wed. and I'm praying (yes, please pray) that I can find an Endocrine Specialist under my AP/IPA insurance plan that will see me in early July - the only one I've found so far is end of August. I'm also considering a new
primary care doc - pray for the Lord to guide me to one nearby.
So, I'm highly recommend Dr. Reggie Stout, who uses his 2 doctorate degrees to be a real healer for people. He really cares and is God's servant - although you may never hear him say that, you can just tell his motivation. He teaches at an academy but also practices Chinese Herbology and
Acupuncture and Naturpathic medicine through Peaceful Spirit.

Dear Mara & Staff of Peaceful Spirit,
I just wanted to thank you all for being there, ready to rescue me from back problems! Earlier this month, I crunched my back in a painfully familiar fashion and even though my regular massage therapist, Devin, was booked Sara was there to rescue me from pain. (About this same time last year it was Tom who performed emergency healing aid!) Anyway, I entered your office hunched and in pain, left standing up straight and within two days was relatively pain free and able to grocery shop. So, once again THANK YOU! Every massage I've had at Peaceful Spirit has been a wonderful one.

I just want to let you know that my massage with Rachel was amazing. It was the best massage I have had in a LONG time. She completely helped my back pain. I am coming back next week and referring ALL of my friends!
Liz N.
Mara as you know I have periodic back and neck pain. When I get a flare up it can last for days. But, not this time. I came in right away and saw Ida. The treatment was great and I got relief right away. She suggested a follow up session later in the week. As you know, I do not always take the time to get treatment but I agreed since I knew I needed it. I want to let you know that I am so much better and that I think Ida is one of your BEST therapists yet!

Hi Mara,
Just following up with an email to let you know how impressed I am with Devin. She is very sensitive to what the client asks for. Her technique is very relaxing and she can feel exactly where to work her magic. I don't like deep massage and it is difficult to find therapists who are gentle. She helped me a lot when I was having pretty serious shoulder problems. She is personable and professional and I feel very comfortable with her - which of course, helps with relaxing.
Thanks,
Karen K
Awesome recommendation w/Devin. Truly one of the best massages I've had!

I just wanted to say that Devin is an Absolute GENIUS!!!!
For the first time in weeks, my arms didn't fall asleep in the night. I slept more soundly than I had in a very long time. I have had this problem for a little while, and while other massage therapists helped, they didn't offer any long-term relief. Devin pretty much eradicated my problem. Her specific manipulations on my shoulder/neck muscles were just what I needed, and her hints afterward on how to better sleep on my side really worked!!
Thank you Devin!!!! I will be SOOO back! :)
Much appreciated!

(about Peaceful Spirit-shared with us by a fellow business)
I just wanted to let you know that I used my free massage coupon from Peaceful Spirit Massage that I won at your Gratitude Gathering. I must say, I think it was the best massage I've ever had! They took almost two hours with me, talking about my health & medical issues, aches & pains beforehand, and tension & relief afterward. They DID NOT treat me like a freebie client! They even sent me a thank you card in the mail. It was all very enjoyable, thank you. You really know your Tucson businesses, that's a great one!
Have a Merry Christmas!

To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing to let you know what great Licensed Massage Therapists you have working for you. I have been seeing Jeff for an injury that I sustained almost 10 years ago while I was enlisted in the Navy. The doctors said that I would never recover and that I would get worse as I got older. I started to see Jeff as my only alternative to "Traction" as I knew that procedure to be extremely painful. My injury was indeed getting better and I found that I could do more and move better. Then I was in a pretty extreme car accident. My mother suggested that I go see Jeff again, since my physical therapist couldn't fit me in. In addition to that, she wanted to come with me. Therefore, I saw Jeff and my mother saw Sara. Jeff and I worked on the injury that the car accident made much worse and showed me the exercises he wanted me to do to help the muscle spasms decrease. Sara gave my mother two tennis balls to put in a sock to help alleviate her neck pain due to fibromyalgia.
Finally, my physical therapist had an opening and I went to see him. I told him of the exercises Jeff had me do, and the Tennis balls that Sara had my mom do. The physical therapist pulled out the exercise regiment that he had planned for me and all of the exercises that Jeff suggested were on there. Then the physical therapist pulled out a sock that had two tennis balls in it. He said, "Your massage therapists are very smart!" Additionally, because of Jeff's exercises, he said that I am better than he expected I would be given the severity of the accident. Thank you, Peaceful Spirit for having Licensed Massage Therapists that look out for our body, mind, and spirit!
Sincerely,
Aida H.
I was at your location last week and received some excellent work by Aaron. I would like to thank him again. He really improved a chronic issue for me. I will be back. Thanks!
Gordon M.
I had a fabulous massage on Saturday. I wanted to let Aaron know that Yes, you were able to loosen my hips up! The real test, is getting out of bed in the morning and how much effort is required to get fluid motion. For the past two mornings just a couple of stretches before I get up...And I am good to go.
Thank YOU!
Elisa
