Alternative Health

What a joke! My friend told me she had come here and the lady (Brenda) healed her by some ‘hocus pocus” thing. I believe in alternative practices had nothing to lose (except the $ 45 it cost me). I went in but I couldn’t be seen for a couple hours. The girl at the front, I think was her daughter and there was a small girl playing in the other room. She asked what the issue was and I told her I had severe eczema. Me & my friend left. I returned for the appt. I went into another room which had a very dirty floor. She explained that my body knows what is wrong with it and I would hold up one arm, she would put slight pressure down on it but wanted me to resist. She would place her other hand over various organs of mine and if my arm gave way, that meant something was wrong. I did as told. She ran her hand on my throat, her other hand which was placed on my upright arm started to shake as she barely put any pressure on it. When her hand ran over my liver, she shoved my arm down. At first I was bewildered but as she continued on, I realized this was it! I started to get angry. I asked her how she knew when to give a little pressure as opposed to a lot. She said «your body knows». I then asked if perhaps there was energy passing thru her body connected to me? She clumsily muttered a «yes» but then again stated «your body knows». She then told me to hold certain bottles of her «natural supplements» and her hand would shake as she hardly gave any pressure on my arm. She said «see, your body likes these»! I couldn’t wait to get out of there! Every organ that my arm «gave way» for were common for eczema (liver, kidney, thyroid, etc.) if you google it. Which is what I assumed her «daughter» did. I’ve been to spiritual healers and clairvoyants before and I do believe in these practices but this was just lame! Save yourself the money and trouble unless it’s worth the $ 45 for the laugh.
UPDATE: I had a comprehensive blood test and it says all my organs are great! And the ear problem (after seeing 2 docs) was TMJ issue!

I read in a previous review that her health evaluation is eerily accurate and I just wanted to say that I agree. She picked up on some things that I’ve never told anyone and explained to me how they related to various deficiencies in my body. She believes in the importance of removing mental, physical, emotional blockages in order to truly heal the body. The brand of nutritional supplements they offer here is Standard Process, which offer high quality whole food supplements. Very no fuss, no fluff consultation. I will be back in 2 weeks to check back (the second visit is FREE) and continue treatment.

Just moved to O’ahu from another island –looking a naturopath. I was soooooo grateful to find Brenda. She uses Standard Process (which I’ve always found good) and other cutting edge nutrients (buy the liquid chlorophyll and put in your water –it really gives my energy a boost) along with gentle adjustments that have surprising results. My knee went out from ballet and she fixed it in one session! I was amazed. Her prices are reasonable for those of us working parents on a budget and her caring for her patients and ‘TLC’ is admirable. I have the greatest respect for this gifted naturopath.
Brenda is a blessing to the aina!

Got allergies but needed something more natural since I’m BF the little one. Brenda hooked me up with some herbal supplements that helped after a wk. She also must’ve seen the bags under my eyes and helped me get my energy back up as well as destress a bit with her reiki magic. Not as fast as the usual Allegra and a workout but she’s my go to person for any health issues I may be having.
Minus 1 star for closing earlier than scheduled one day when i had to run in and pick up something but heck = you can do anything you want when you own your own biz! =)

I am super stoked about this place. It’s right next door to where I take my miniature schnauzer to get groomed. I never noticed it before, but a girlfriend of mine told me that I just *had* to go here. And now you all are shaking with anticipation and asking «Why, why, WHY here, of all places?!»
I shall tell you why.
I’ve been chubby all my life. The chub turned into being plain old overweight. And it’s not fun, you know. Three pregnancies later and I’m way heavier (I won’t say how much!) than I was in college. I was looking for a fix. I needed to find a way to rid myself of the fluff.
I tried the HCG diet for about a month. If you don’t know what that is, then be a smart person and Google it. In that time, I had lost about 16 pounds. Yay, me. My über sexy and cool girlfriend had also done the diet and told me I should have lost TWICE that much. Come to find out, the HCG I was taking was WEAK SAUCE! Yes, truly! It was filled with ADDITIVES and FILLERS and extra crap. She told me to go to Alternative Health and buy me the GOOD STUFF. So I did. Just the other day. The stuff I bought looks like it has some serious MANA. It’s dark orange, not like the clear stuff I bought online. I am totally stoked and cannot wait to say «Hello!» to skinny. Skinny bitch, here I come.
