Shannon Downey Tufts

Shannon is a Registered Interior Designer with 17 years experience in programming, space planning, interior detailing, as well as the selection of interior finishes, materials and furniture. In addition to her Interior Design skills, Ms. Downey has an extensive background in project management including construction administration. 

Shannon is also Certified BodyTalk Practioner practicing in New Orleans.  Her journey to BodyTalk began in 1994 when she found herself at a Homeopathic Veterinarian’s clinic for her cat.  Homeopathy was fascinating to her and thru the years she found herself reading natural healing books to better understand the alternatives to Western medicine.
Her journey to energy medicine went into high gear after Hurricane Katrina when her daughter, who was once a very healthy 1 year old, started suffering from repeated ear infections and severe eczema.  After several trips to the pediatrician and way too many antibiotics, Shannon found a connection to the food her daughter was ingesting to the illnesses.  Thru an energy medicine system, the ear infections and eczema completely cleared up!  This solidified the belief that energy medicine was more powerful than she ever imagined. 
After considering several energy medicine systems to pursue, her friend Kim introduced her to BodyTalk in 2009.  She feels that BodyTalk combines several of the healing arts and thru the use of the protocol chart allows the client to truly understand the communication breakdown in their body.  Although Shannon has only been practicing for a short time, she has seen some amazing results in many of her clients.
Shannon's dream is to harmonize the body, mind, and spirit with the personal environment.
 
 

Kim Carlson

Kim tends to be right brained and very creative.  She initially pursued a degree in graphic design, however she started enjoying science classes more than the art she needed for her degree.  It was then that she realized that a degree that would combine science and art would be a better fit for her; Occupational therapy was her answer.
 
Kim has been working as an Occupational Therapist for the past 12 years. She enjoys seeing her patients succeed with their healing and return to a full life however this wasn't the case 100% of the time.  Some patients made little progress and some progressed very slowly.  Kim knew there had to be another way and there her interest in alternative medicine began.
 
While listening to a podcast Kim heard about BodyTalk and was instantly intrigued!   Through a leap of faith, Kim decided to travel to NY to start the journey to learning the BodyTalk System.  She has been practicing since October of 2009 and finally feels like she has found her lifes purpose.
