Donald Cox employs a variety of therapeutic techniques to assist healing in his patients. Usually a telephone or in-person evaluation will help determine the best therapy or therapies:

Shiatsu Massage (Acupressure)

Shiatsu massage is different from typical Western massage therapies. It focuses on "reading" and responding to the paths of energy flow with the body. Most illnesses and injuries reveal a corresponding disturbance in energy flow through the channels of the body. Shiatsu uses manipulation of body tissues and the use of acupressure to stimulate, tonify, or relax specific points in the body where energy flow is "collected" or impeded. With energy flow restored, healing is quick, as the body can now bring its healing energy to the places needed.

Meridian Therapy

The body pathways are defined in Eastern medicine as Meridians. Different pathways relate to different body systems that are named after the dominant organs involved. Meridians can be "overheated" or 'cold', meaning that energy is too prevalent or too weak in that pathway. The practitioner understands the proper techniques to restore balance. It is not immediately obvious to a patient why, for instance, calming the liver meridian should relieve migraine headaches, but the practitioner may see that toxification due to improper liver function is the main cause of the headache. In other words, pain in the knee may be due to an imbalance in the kidney meridian... the names of the meridians are not necessarily associated with the location of the obvious complaint.

Usui Reiki

Reike works with the emotional "storage" of the body to release pent-up energy and bring a greater sense of health and well-being. Reiki can often improve a person's energy level and resistance to physical and emotional challenges. Often, Reiki can relieve pain in locations of the body that are "storehouses" for negative emotional energy or hurt.

Reconnective Healing

Reconnective Healing is a form of healing that has only recently been explored and verified as an effective therapy. It is considered to be able to reconnect us to the universe and to our very essence not just through a new set of healing frequencies, but through possibly an entirely new bandwidth. The reality of its existence has demonstrated itself clearly in practice as well as in science laboratories.

Reconnective Healing typically begins with a "Reconnection", a two-session experience that is the umbrella process of reconnecting to the universe, which allows Reconnective Healing to take place. These healings and evolutionary frequencies are of a new bandwidth brought in via a spectrum of light and information. It is through The Reconnection that we are able to interact with these new levels of light and information, and it is through these new levels of light and information that we are able to reconnect.

The process yields results that are indiviualized to a person's life situation and health profile, so people will cite benefits that may involve physical healing, emotional healing, or simply being able to establish a new perspective on their lives and their mission in life. Most feel it is a dramatic and lifting experience.

On-Site Chair Massage

Chair Massage is a specific approach toward adapting Shiatsu massage and acupressure to a short-duration treatment that covers many of the areas that greatly affect health and energy. Most recipients of this therapy notice an immediate improvement in the way they feel, and particularly note a reduction in stress and tension in the upper body, where so many people focus tension in the modern work world.
