Experiencing Torticollis

My name is Sharon Wajswol and I am a Quantum-Touch practitioner. This story is about my work colleague, Maria, who slept too close to her air conditioner and woke up the next day and could not move her head at all. I found out later that this condition is called torticollis, or “wry neck”.  It happens when direct cold air causes the blood vessels to contract, leaving the neck locked and often accompanied by painful muscle spasms. Maria’s case was extremely bad. She was in tears for nearly 3 days. 

Maria and I work as administrative assistants at a major New York hospital.  So we constantly shared stories together about our respective surgeons. We both work for an extremely busy cardiovascular surgery department, and a very high volume of work must be done in a very short span of time. In the restaurant business, it’s called “working in the weeds” and is defined as being so busy that you fall behind or struggle to keep up with orders. So, we came to see the worst and the best in each other. But we also could rely on each other as backup when necessary.

Offering Quantum-Touch

Maria knew that I was completing my practice hours to become an energy healer. I saw her problem and knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I could solve the problem with Quantum-Touch. I had worked on more severe issues which resided in the body much longer than this short lived acute neck pain.  I also knew that it would take no more than a 1-hour-session to alleviate the pain and increase mobility in the area. I hesitated to ask Maria if she wanted me to work on her, but one day when she was covering our reception area, she mentioned again to me how much pain she was experiencing. This prompted me to just let her know that if she was interested in a session, I was pretty sure I could help her. Despite her intense pain, she did not respond to my offer the first time. And then I let it go, though it was very frustrating for me to watch her suffer every day, knowing that this is a Quantum-Touch “no brainer” as they say. But I am a firm believer that the client must make the decision to accept the healing energy, whether it’s for a paper cut, headache, stress, arthritis, or even a tumor. 

I believe that when you let your guard down and become open enough to come to an energy healer, you have already put yourself and your body in a receptive state to receive the healing energy. Or maybe you can call it “surrendering” to the healing energy. After all I have met enough people who are addicted to their “pain”, no matter what form it takes. But Maria was not one of those as far as I knew. She very much wanted to feel better. But she was entering her 3rd day of the same intense pain with no improvement. I just kept reminding her that I was pretty confident I could help her out and that she had nothing to lose by trying. Because Quantum-Touch can never make the condition worse.  It either stays the same or improves. 

Accepting a Session

Finally she took me up on my offer.  When I asked her what her pain level was on a level of 1 through 10 (10 being the worst), she immediately said 10 or 11. The poor girl could not move her head in any direction, not even a millimeter. I’m still not sure to this day if she was skeptical about energy healing, if she wanted to see if the pain would subside on its own, or just plain desperate.

That evening at 8 pm I asked her to be in a relaxed state, lying down in bed, or on a mat on the floor. I also emphasized a “disturbance free” environment. Maria went into her bedroom and closed the door. I began the distance healing session. I remember sweating during the session and feeling lots of heat. I remember seeing silver light around the neck area. I also remember hearing Maria’s dog barking and howling, and this was a sure indication to me that the energy was received. Animals pick up energy easily and immediately, whether it’s a live or distance healing session.  I’ve heard house pets barking and yowling in other distance healing sessions I’ve performed.  It’s always a good sign. I left the phone on in case Maria needed to communicate with me during the session. When her dog reacted, Maria asked if I was there and apologized for the dog interrupting. I remember being amused and telling her, “His reaction means the session is working” and she completely understood. 

The Results

I called Maria after the session was over, and we laughed about the dog.  She said he sensed something strange going on very early during the hour long session. She also said that she felt a chill in her neck when I was working, which was the opposite of the heat I felt. She also felt pulses on her left side when I was working on the right side, and vice versa. So we were almost literally mirroring each other. I did not try to analyze in any way because every client reacts differently. Actually, as long as the client feels something, it’s a positive indication that the energy has entered. There was not a big difference right after the session. She might have dropped to a level 9 from a 10, and we both agreed that we would wait and see how she is in the morning and that I would see her at work.

I was sitting at my desk and Maria practically ran over to me and said, “Look!” as she turned her head easily from left to right, and down and up. She regained all her mobility and she said that she was virtually pain free – maybe a 1 or a 1.5. She told me her husband watched her turn her head in the morning and did not believe that the energy session did that. She looked at him and said, “Why would I lie? Look. I can turn my head easily. The pain is totally gone.”

That was a truly amazing session and healing experience. You never really become numb to the feeling you get after you provide a successful healing session. Even after hundreds of sessions, it feels so gratifying when the client walks away in better condition than the original state.
