What Can I Expect From Whole-Body Healing?

At Global Healing Therapies, Dr. Janine Lex and Jonathan Tripodi mix compassion and humor with modern natural (holistic) medicine and transformative bodywork. They engage each individual as a whole “global” entity who can heal fully and naturally. Through a blend of complimentary modalities that feed and support each other, Janine and Jonathan have helped thousands of people get back in tune with their natural instinct for health and vitality.

Led by Dr. Janine Lex, all those on the Healing Staff work together to help you achieve your potential for health and healing.

Dr. Lex will evaluate your symptoms from the context of physical function, energetic balance and spirit for life in order to determine a Global Healing treatment plan that best meets your unique needs.

Global Healing Paradigm:

Our paradigm is founded on the understanding that all body systems are interconnected, interdependent and designed to be self-correcting. By turning within to encounter our innate intelligence for health and happiness, we begin to heal ourselves and the world around us. This treatment model embodies the current scientific breakthroughs in therapeutics and energy medicine.

1. Acupuncture
Once Dr. Lex evaluates your symptoms in a whole-person context, she may suggest acupuncture to address the underlying energetic cause of your symptoms. Using tiny filaments to activate the acupuncture points, she can stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities. Acupuncture speeds the healing process of pain, stress, illness and injury by balancing your internal communication system. More. . .

2. Body Memory Recall (BMR)
A healthy, vital body is one that is free of the past. Old injuries, emotions and fears are often stored within the body causing stress, tension and restriction within the tissues. BMR is a form of holistic bodywork developed by Jonathan Tripodi that integrates gentle forms of touch, pressure and stretch to release old body memories and their associated body tensions. BMR significantly improves your health, function and ability to experience yourself and your body in a whole new way. More. . .

3. Chiropractic
The fundamental principle of “structure dictates function” is based on simple anatomy and physiology of nerve and blood flow, both of which are mediated by the skeletal system. With over 20 years experience, Dr. Lex utilizes gentle approaches in chiropractic care, including Activator Technique, Cox flexion/distraction and other soft-tissue adjustments.

4. Movement Re-education Exercise
Patients receive one-on-one coaching for functional movements and exercises to re-educate, balance and strengthen their body. Moving properly and maintaining the progress made through manual therapies is at the core of the Global Healing philosophy. These exercises require little to no equipment and are easily performed at home or gym. More. . .

5. Nutrition
Many symptoms and disorders have been traced to the disruption of cellular health due to environmental toxins and inadequate nutrition. Dr. Lex provides nutritional counseling, chinese herbs and supplements from proprietary nutriceutical companies. Nutriceuticals are formulations of natural substances balanced and standardized for supporting the body’s vital metabolic functions.
