About The Healing Medium

For centuries, holistic therapists have espoused an understanding of the body that you'd be hard-pressed to find in a modern medical textbook. At the center of their philosophy are energy channels—pathways that run through the body and purportedly connect every fiber of the being. Rather than treat symptoms or specific ailments, holistic therapists focus on balancing these energy channels to stimulate the body’s self-healing powers.

Elisha, also known as The Healing Medium, counts herself among these therapists. She has practiced a Japanese energy-balancing technique known as reiki for more than a decade, and she supplements these treatments with alternative forms of counseling. As a medium, she serves as a meditative vehicle through which clients can communicate with spirits that have, as she puts it, "survived the death of their physical bodies." Her clairvoyant abilities sometimes allow her to experience things the spirit would like to relay, such as the taste of a grandmother's homemade pie or the sound of a grandfather snoring.
