  • Alleviation of physical or emotional issues

  • Deep realizations or shifts in consciousness

  • Release of self-limiting patterns

  • Temporary intensification of symptoms as part of natural healing responses

You agree to take personal responsibility for your own health, healing process, and well-being, including seeking appropriate medical care if necessary. Michael Dow is not responsible for any physical, emotional, energetic, or psychological symptoms that may arise from your participation in these services.
