Family Hypnosis with Bridgett Kurtz
Everyone has experienced trance states -- that feeling of being caught up in a movie, book or daydream; arriving to a destination and you don't remember driving; being "a million miles away." When the conscious, or critical mind becomes overloaded with messages, or when a state of relaxation is so deep that it produces a dreamlike state, the subconscious mind becomes very open to positive suggestions. Most people will have visual imagery, and find that hypnosis is a very pleasant and helpful experience.
Bridgett believes the best benefit of hypnosis is that it helps align your actions with your intentions and that it can help children and adults reach their highest potential in living healthy, happy, and productive lives.
Here are a few of the programs she provides:
- Stop smoking
- Lose weight
- Pain management
- Fears / Phobias
- Menopause symptoms
- Procrastination
- Bed-wetting
- Stress / Relaxation
- Overall health and wellbeing

Lymph Drainage
Cherrie Lefevers (615) 542-1135
Lymphedema is an abnormal build up of fluid that causes swelling, most often in the arms or legs. The condition develops when lymph vessels or lymph nodes are missing, impaired, damaged, or removed. It is associated with accidents, certain diseases, or problems that can stop the lymphatic system from functioning properly, affects both men and women.
Symptoms may include severe fatigue, discoloration of the skin, skin ulcers, infections and localized fluid accumulation in other body areas.
Cherrie Lefevers is trained to perform manual lymph drainage by massaging areas of the body where lymph fluid is flowing irregularly. Such releases are intended to unblock and redirect lymph fluid by stimulating the lymph nodes and increasing the flow of lymph.
Cherrie received her training from the Holistic Institute for Health at Middle Tennessee State University. She specializes in Manual Lymph Drainage after undergoing an intensive training course from the Dr. Vodder School North America.
