4. What is a Root Cause Practitioner?

A Root Cause Practitioner identifies both what is present in the body that shouldn't be (toxins, pathogens, etc.) and what is missing (nutrients, frequencies, etc.) to restore optimal health. Cathy uses bioenergetic testing, science-based expertise, and intuition to guide this personalized process.

5. Description of Bioenergetic

 The life force energy that flows through each and every living organism. Your mental and physical health are directly connected to your energetic well being and the bioresonance data in our products emanate powerful, positive bio-energetic frequencies to calm your mind and body

 Bioresonance energy works by entering the body through bio-energetic frequencies that are contained within our products. Those frequencies move through the body via your meridian network, a complex distribution system that moves your natural life force energy through your body to interact with your biofield and stimulate the natural processes of your mind and body on a subatomic level.

Every person is different, and so the time it takes for one individual to feel a difference may vary from another individual’s experience. However, your personal situation in terms of your energetic condition, combined with how committed you are to using the protocols and services created on a routine, consistent basis in order to gain the most benefit can have a bearing on how long it will take for you to notice a difference. For most, small changes can be felt in just a few days while major changes may start to have a difference in only a few weeks’ time.

6. Ancient Healing Modalities

 As the name bioresonance implies, it's all about transmitting beneficial energetic frequencies to interact with the energy in your life, including your personal allocation of Life Force Energy called your biofield. Your biofield is the quantum energy field from which your body, mind, and spirit emanate. Your total being is influenced by the vibrations of this energy. If they're strong and resonating in a balanced, harmonized manner, then you're healthy and integrated. If the vibrations are weak and obstructed, then you're unhealthy and fragmented.

Emitting pure, positive energetic frequencies that interact with your food, water, and your personal biofield to support beneficial changes in your energetic state can contribute to improved health and well-being.

Whatever your intentions, goals, or challenges, we seek the right energy to support your efforts to improve your life.

7. How are essential oils used in your practice?

Essential oils are used not just physically, but energetically and emotionally. Cathy creates personalized oil protocols based on the emotional scale and root cause scan. She also partners with doTERRA for the highest purity oils available.

8. What are the benefits of tinctures?

Tinctures are fast-acting, potent, and highly absorbable herbal remedies. At Illuminated Tree of Life Healing, our tinctures are infused with frequency-matched oils and emotional healing intentions to target specific imbalances and promote transformation on all levels—body, mind, and spirit.

9. What makes Illuminated Tree of Life Healing different?

Our approach is truly integrative—merging science, spirituality, and emotional intelligence.
