TESTIMONIALS for CranioSacral Therapy
 
Hi Tanga,
Just wanted to give you some feedback --
My tx yesterday was fantastic! My back today feels like I got a real "back" tx from a pro!
I also noticed that I let go of a lot of stuff/toxins yesterday -- I must have went pee a gallon before I left your house, and then had to go again a lot when I got home, and then I pooped 3 times between then and this morning (I'm usually quite regular - no probs), so I was getting rid of a lot of stuff that my body apparently didn't need. Which might have been contributing to feeling "grouchy" or "cranky" in my back, I don't know. Anyways, I feel great today, and I thank you again for all your hard work!
I hope your back is doing super today, too!


Hi Tanga
Several years ago, I had a fall, injuring my teeth and jaw in the process. I suffered with jaw and mouth pain for several years. My dentist was able to repair my teeth, but I continued to have problems in the area of my jaw and head. When I met Tanga it was in Yoga class. She noticed that I had something going on with my face and neck. We set up an appointment and Tanga did CranioSacral Therapy on my jaw. What a difference. I had had TMJ for what seemed like forever and now I was pain free for the first time in years.

Dear Tanga
I have had TMJ pain for several years. Tanga you were able to relieve the pain when you gave me a facial massage/CranioSacral Therapy. The treatment helped me to relax my jaw. You also gave me some exercises that I could do at home. I really felt a significant improvement in my ability to move my jaw without discomfort. Thank you so much.


Dear Tanga
I was amazed at how tight my shoulder had gotten. I am moving it so much farther now. If you saved me from another frozen shoulder, you are a saint. Thank you. Thank you. I got out our band and attached it to the doorknob and am using it at least twice a day. I have tried countertop push-ups...again, great advice. Also (!!!), I bought a backpack type purse, and I love it. I put that on and I feel so free...and balanced. I have often thought about it, but you gave me the shove to get me to do it. Doing these exercises has made me realize how good I feel when I exercise and that I miss it. It is so easy not to make the effort to go, but it is so worth doing. When I go back I will get some better advice on a balanced workout. Thanks again.

Dear Tanga

I cannot even begin to describe how wonderful it was to have someone finally really help me..I knew the moment I saw your web sight and saw your picture that this was going to help me on my journey..
I dont really understand the emotional part of this process, but you were sure right about the crying/laughing that I might experience(both, actually...and both equally at bizarre times for no apperant reason..) I look forward to the day when I understand it more...
Actually, even if I never understand any of this on a conscious level, my heart and spirit understands..I feel like I've been starving for 38 years, and you've given me food.. I can't thank you enough for your kindness and healing touch. You are truly a gifted woman, god bless your sweet self.
Thankyou!

 

Dear Tanga

What a difference!  I noticed as I drove to Clark after my appointment with you that I felt clearer.  I am aware that I have been feeling as though I needed to really work at staying focused - especially on driving.  Kind of scary!  The change after my session was profound.  Then I noticed by the time I finished my t'ai chi class that I ached, from head to toe, but especially my left knee.  I continued drinking lots of water and went to bed about 8:30.  Woke up this morning feeling great!  More energy than I have felt in some time.  No headache or jumpy vision.  Thank you, my friend!   

 

Looking forward to seeing you next Friday the 19th!

 

Be well, and Blessings!!

 

The CST treatments I received from Tanga resolved a problem that I incurred in an auto accident forty years ago.  Imagine my surprise when I could sit fully cross-legged for the first time in all those years!  A wonderful practitioner!

 

 

Tanga,
I wanted to thank you for the remarkable results of my session last Monday! I don't want to go on and on with superlatives, but you need to know how well I have been since. I noticed a great difference when I left you and drove to Providence Hospital to visit a friend. I felt settled, in control and peaceful .......even in bad traffic. I have been sleeping very well; have more energy,better attitude and generally feel much younger! I feel I have discovered a great thing here, and want to learn more. I even told Pastor Carol at church last Sunday about the wonderful results.
 
 
 
 
 
Dear Tanga
Thanks so much for your energy. I feel really good today. I feel like I walked a little taller ....literally.
My brain instructed me to write that. I didn't think about it at all. I feel more aware of my body and what it's doing. You are so awesome...you give so much to the community of folks that you work on!!!!! I'm blessed to have met you. :)

Dear Tanga
 
I feel much better after my massage. I'd been feeling sluggish and just not quite myself for the past few weeks. I decided it was time to snap out of it, energize, feel better, and quit wallowing in it. After a massage, I feel like a deck of cards that have been picked up, shuffled, and put back in the box. I feel more focused in my mind and body. I get motivated and get things done, like I'm moving forward along my path.
It impressed me that you could tell immediately, just by my lower leg, that I'd been having an irregular cycle. I really appreciate your caring and intuitive nature. Being that in-tune shows that you have healing hands and a healing heart.

Many Thanks!


Dear Tanga
You are great. Thank you. The massage you gave me was so helpful.
It moved stuff inside of me and created a shift from depression to anger. I am still in the process stage of how I am dealing with those feelings that are coming up for me. I appreciate your friendship and kindness towards me and my baby

Young Mother with Post-Partum Depression.


Hey girl
Just wanted to let you know I am sleeping (and walking) completely pain free!!! Thanks so much - your instincts were right on. I was fairly sore all over on Sunday (even my back which you didn't touch) but walked 3 miles and have been sleeping like a baby ever since. Yeah!!!

How are you?! I am so glad to see you on here! I think about you often. It seems God has been bringing a lot of people my way that are in desparate need of CST! As you know I only have the beginning training, so I tell them ALL about you. Who knows who actually goes over. It would be awesome if they all did wouldnt it? What a different world we would live in. I am about 3 weeks or so away from being done with my licensing for Massage Therapy. I am SO EXCITED! FINALLY! I REALLY, REALLY want to further my education in CST. Do you need a different license to practice CST? Are you still teaching?

 

Your kindness and skill have been a great motivation for me, I really want you to know that. After Jason's accident it really made me realize that people need to hear how wonderful they are while we can still tell them. Even though we have only really met once, what you did and were willing to do I have not forgotten :). I look forward to hopefully many more meetings with you, especially now that I can actually get away for a few hours without a hip ornament, haha!

 

I love your picture by the way! You guys look so happy!

 

 

Hello Tanga.

I wanted to thank you both personally and on behalf of Moms Group for the outstanding introduction to meditation. I felt the same sense of peace and relaxation that I always felt coming out of your pilates classes. By the end of the day Thursday, I had spoken with two of the other moms who also got a lot out of the time you spent with us. They both asked that I send along your contact information. One of the moms said that she may have some business to refer to you for yoga instruction.
Anyway...I very much appreciate the time and thought you put into coming and sharing your knowledge and experiences with us. And the "hands-on" moments of meditation nicely complimented the explanation. You handled the group and our time together beautifully. I don't know if you had a chance to count, but I think I counted 13 moms. That is just short of full attendance. Speakers usually draw the best crowds and your subject brought almost everyone to the meeting. You may not think of yourself as a public speaker, but your presentation even exceeded my hopes and expectations. I just knew you were the perfect person to ask when the group brought up having someone come to talk about meditation. Thank you for your willingness and generosity with your time.

With much appreciation,
Melinda

I feel I do have to take care of my back and you suggested a session to teach me a yoga technique.  If you might book me some time next week, (Feb 18-22) I will confirm

It is eerily scary at how much I can relate to your comments!!!!  Loving thy self does not mean justification for ones actions. Or meant to utilize it as a reason to be more selfish and or lazy.  In our society those traits need little encouragement.... However through meditation, you can cleanse your mind without the negative elements our every environment can produce.

 Miss Tanga,
Your emails are a pleasant balm to the wounds that arise from the stress of every day life!!! I appreciate them much!! Have a great week!
My best,

 

Hello Tanga

we are Arizona. He has been diagnosed with Prostate Cancer so we are here for treatment. He will have surgery on the 19th and then when we get the final pathology report back we will know if additional treatments are needed. Thank you for your inspiration.

 

Because of your yoga, we developed much greater strength which is helping both of us. We are better prepared to deal with the stress we are experiencing by continuing to exercise on our own. Ron has lost 25 pounds due to a diet his doctor put him on and he is stronger so that will all make his recovery from the surgery better.

 

Thank you for the impact you have made in our lives. If you could squeeze us in on your prayer list, we'd appreciate it. Ron has two brothers, both had prostate cancer at a young age and one now has it in his arm which is very unusual.

 

 

Hi Tanga,

I just wanted to send you a note to thank you for your continued words of peace and inspiration. Some speak louder than others but a lot are exactly what i needed to hear. I believe God speaks through you in a very powerful way. Thank you for paying attention. I hope all is well with you and hope I will be able to drop in on your class again sooner than later. Have a great day and take care.

Best wishes, Andee

 

 

 

 

 

Oh Tanga, If you only new how many times you have lifted my thoughts and spirits, and I send everything to my Mother who also thinks you are a great person! Thank you for taking the time to make this life more special and educational for us all. BIG HUGS, Tavine

 

Dear Tanga

 Thank you so much for Off the Mat. I look forward to its arrival each week; always filled with much encouragement, always something I need to hear; words of wisdom from amazing people such as yourself.

 It’s been a long winter here on Dutch and as it continues Off The Mat has been a touch of sunshine helping me to get me through each week while awaiting Spring’s arrival.

 

Peace

Anne

 

Hello Tanga,

 

 

 

I just wanted you to know that I have a "Tanga" folder in my email files. I look forward to your emails each week and forward the wisdom onto my husband. We just moved into a new home this week. My husband entered an out patient alchohol re-hab about 6 weeks ago....he is shifting into a better place. We have been in the dark for quit some time. Needless to say the stress in my life is overwhelming at times and I feel like we are given what we need to get through and grow. Your "spirit" has helped me get through many moments and even though I have yet to "act" on the wisdom you send.....I am filing it away. Today I will take 5 minutes of silence for myself.

 

Thank you.....without even knowing each other well, you have a way of making me look directly into the heart and soul of who I am and not forget the truth. I will be in touch.....

 

Jen
