​A Healing Place takes you out of Springfield and into a dimension of peace, calm, and tranquility. Ambiance reminded me of going to an old world apothecary. I prefer A Healing Place's atmosphere over boring, clinical massage places. The website interface made making an appointment hassle free. Elliott has amazing knowledge, abilities, and friendliness. I was and still am amazed at how his hands became significantly warmer. His Reiki skill was put well to the test. Elliott's Reiki ability takes Reiki from the mystical to scientific realm. When I asked him what my body was telling him after the Shiatsu massage, he explained exactly my life situation. I was amazed beyond words. Elliott provides evidence that there is a mind-body-spirit connect and in fact, they are all one. After my massage, I felt my being open up. Elliott's technique provides relief from physical pain and mental/emotional stress. I will be a repeat customer. The work Elliott does far exceeds his reasonable price.

​Shiatsu sessions with Elliott have helped with digestive issues, sprains, and breathing issues. When western medicine could not figure out what was causing an issue, eastern medicine did. I encourage anyone to open their mind and give it a try. Elliott's technique is excellent, and most highly recommended.

This was the BEST massage I've ever had. I have never felt so relaxed after a massage. Elliott has great touch, not too hard like some can try to do. It was relaxing and healing. I will never go to anyone else.

Elliott asked good general questions about my health. He was very effective in the special work I asked him to do: I have had pain and stiffness and limited range of motion in my left shoulder for about 2 years. When I left the pain was gone and the range of motion restored.

Elliott has helped free my frozen shoulder better than regular PT.

“I have experienced Elliott's Reiki several times with excellent results.  Each time, he has helped me physically with the Reiki as well as providing a level of relaxation I sometimes find difficult to maintain consciously on my own.  The results for me have been lasting in terms of reduced pain and increased mobility in the affected joints.  I will definitely continue to seek Elliott's work as a practitioner.  His technique is gentle and intuitive, and it provides relief for me.”  ~BSO

“I greatly suffer from anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and social phobia. With Elliott's help I have moved past many internal road blocks in my life. Elliott's voice is calm, and relaxing to listen to. I find it safe and comforting to follow during hypnosis. I am greatly appreciative of the experiences I've had with Elliott, and look forward to knocking down a few more road blocks in the future.” ~AB, Springfield

“While I feel it's necessary to grieve, there comes a time to move on. I was able to do this with the help of many modalities and time. The latest and greatest help I received was from Elliott Challandes, who is a hypnotherapist. I highly recommend him. I had amazing results.”  ~SS, Springfield

“I received an incredible Reiki treatment from Elliott Challandes Friday afternoon. I felt so disharmonious and out of touch with life, his guidance definitely brought me into balance and restored feelings of security and peace. I can't rave enough about Elliott's talents; I've seen him several times over the past couple months for workshops, meditation, and hypnosis. I came across a quote last night that succinctly states what Elliott allows people to do - "Complete the circle. Not out of pride, inability, or arrogance, but simply because whatever it is no longer fits in your life. Close the door, change the record, clean the house, get rid of the dust. STOP BEING WHO YOU WERE AND BECOME WHO YOU ARE."  Thank you for being you, Elliott!” ~K. Dalton, Chatham, IL

"Elliott's sense of calm composure immediately put me at ease and made me feel more positive about my decision to quit smoking utilizing hypnotherapy. I had 5 sessions and have been smoke free for over 3 months now.  At the beginning of each session we discussed how my previous week had gone.  This was helpful and he adapted and incorporated that information for the next session.  I am thankful that Elliott was a good listener, great hypnotist, and especially that I am now a non-smoker after 30 years.   Highly recommend his services."  ~ KJV

Thank you all for the thoughtful and positive words.  
You've honored me by allowing me to travel along on your journeys.
