Tina Criscione
In my company, In-Touch Holistic therapy is where the mind, body, and spirit meet. Holistic healing is really a lifestyle approach. It goes beyond the mind-body connection. for finding and maintaining wellness. I work with all parts of a persons life: physical healing, mental health, and wellness, emotional well-being, spiritual beliefs, and values. Holistic healing deals with issues and symptoms that are acute and then look for root causes of the problems. I use complementary alternative healing practices to bring my clients to a higher level of "wholeness" and health.
