Hi there, my name is Theresa and I am new to the Moment of Truth Team! My own healing journey led me here as a client to work with Amy and I fell in love with the mission and care of what Moment of Truth has to offer. I’m so excited to be serving you and offering Shockwave and Stretch Therapies!
To give you an idea of where I come from, I grew up in a family of first responders putting everyone else first and watched how this impacted their health, especially the females in my family. My mother and aunt by the age of 42 were unable to work due to their poor health conditions. I went to NAU and received my Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science, passionate about taking care of the human body and what I could do to maximize my health and others.
I temporarily worked as a physical therapy assistant after graduation and ended up working with animals at the Arizona Humane Society. Coming from a family of police, I was drawn to the Field department that was contracted with local police departments and responsible for responding to house calls regarding animal cruelty and neglect. This included listening and interacting with many people dealing with various degrees of physical and mental health issues.
I found myself developing the same health issues the women in my family had. I knew I needed a change. I left the humane society and transitioned to work as a vet technician for an animal emergency hospital and internal medicine specialists. The veterinary field is high stress and also highly heart heavy to me. I loved working with animals, but I felt something was missing and that maybe I needed to try something different and took a work from home position. I was burnt out from urgent situations and needed some heart healing, and that is when my healing journey began.
I was able to slow down and acknowledge my own trauma and things to sort through and experienced physical healing through my mental, emotional, and spiritual health throughout my treatment with a intuitive doctor in Chinese Medicine and many other healers. I have been intrigued by alternative medicine ever since. I did personal training for women alongside working from home to satiate my passion for empowering women and understand that health and wellness run much deeper than just on the physical level. I am Reiki certified and in the process of getting certified in other energy healing modalities in hopes of empowering others to heal themselves.
I came to Moment of Truth as a patient with the intention to further my healing journey. I had no idea that this space and the women who provide here would be just the tribe and environment I had been longing for to connect and grow with. I am grateful and passionate about using my knowledge and tools I have acquired along the way to supporting others through their healing journey through Shockwave therapy as well as stretch therapy!
Stretch therapy is a simple act of self love that gives back to your body in so many ways:
- increased blood flow,
- muscle tension release,
- improved posture,
- mind-body connection.
When our body feels good, we feel good! A part of that is being aware of how we are feeling and where we are feeling it, sometimes that’s uncomfortable and sometimes we just need someone to be present and hold space with what we are working or moving through. That can feel sticky, and that’s why I am here to assist and empower you!
