About Neal About Neal
Neal’s experience stems from training in both the United States and India. In addition, he was also a member of the first bodywork team invited to China to study Tuina, a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine and massage. Neal is a Usui Reiki master-teacher, providing both Reiki classes and therapy.
Besides his book, "Pocket Stress Manager", Neal is the author of both a relaxation CD and videotape program. He is also the originator of the Earth-Wisdom Labyrinth; Illinois’ first permanent outdoor labyrinth located in Elgin. This labyrinth is a huge outdoor rock structure, open to the public, and patterned after the famous cathedral labyrinth located in Chartres, France. Neal is a creator of other public labyrinths, fabric traveling labyrinths, wood finger labyrinths, kits/manuals for creating outdoor labyrinths and leads labyrinth workshops. He is also a Certified Veriditas Facilitator.
In his private practice, Neal assists those individuals who are experiencing life-affirming conditions such as Diabetes, Cancer and Heart Disease. To promote healing on many levels, he uses relaxation and meditation training, EFT, as well as his own modality "labyrinth counseling" (using a specialized 2-person finger labyrinth design known as the IntuipathÒ ). This work explores integrative medical options, as well as the psychology and spirituality of illness and recovery.
