Indigenous Medicine

Indigenous Medicine

Coverage:   

Indigenous Medicine services are grounded in traditional knowledge systems passed down through the Ancestors, Elders and Ancient Ones, culture and lived experience.  Care is informed by training received locally, nationally, and globally across the lineages of my own genetic ancestral blood lines.

 These services may include traditional healing practices, cultural teachings, health and wellness support rooted in Indigenous ways of knowing.  Indigenous Medicine services are offered as cultural and health-wellness care, not as allopathic medical diagnosis or treatment.  The value of these services is not recognized by insurance companies, nor governments, thus you cannot receive insurance coverage.

 Sandi – mixed blood, mixed cultures, many religions, many traditions – brings her collective training, wisdom and universal principles to your needs. She believes through opening all channels of communication, we gain understanding of our self and the world surround.  She supports right relation – living in balance and harmony with all living beings. 

 Sandi’s IM teachings are dynamically woven within her Integrative Medicine sessions.  These sessions are a journey unto themselves. Her spectrum of discussion covers areas such as: ethno-nutrition, ethnobotany, self-management, trauma transformation, stress management, personal development attending to a variety of mental, physical, emotional and spiritual issues.  She serves all people, all ages, from many different cultures, religions and traditions, using best practice talk therapy principles, traditional talking circle, and story telling weaving physical and spiritual awareness into action.

 You will develop insight along with learning processes, skills and tools you can take into action in your daily life. The aim is to empower you, to help you navigate all that life brings – the challenges and the ecstasy. If you want change – you will be given all you need to achieve change.

 Indigenous and Integrative Medicine sessions include such topics as:

  • Communication with self/communication with world surround – intuition, body intuition, medical intuition
  • Health/wellness support (mental, physical, emotional, spiritual)
  • Trauma resolution and transformation (overwhelm, trauma, PTSD, cPTSD)

 Note: These sessions are available in person, virtually or by phone. You may schedule Sandi to come out to your community.  Session times vary dependent on individual needs. Soul journeys require preparation before the session and follow through after the session.
