Testimonials

“I truly believe that Serafim has a special gift for healing. He has worked wonders with my son, Kyle.  Since Kyle’s last treatment, his skin condition has completely cleared-up and his gastrointestinal symptoms have not returned either.  In addition to these changes, Kyle’s energy level has improved markedly.  He has always been a happy child, but now he is so much more spirited and full of life. We look forward to many years of health and happiness as we continue to maintain our association with Serafim.  I thank him for giving me back my children as they were meant to be: strong, healthy and happy.”

“I have worked with Serafim for over 3 years. He has helped me tremendously, both physically and emotionally. I know that we do this work together, that he enhances what I desire for myself, and I am an active participant in everything we do. His methods are not limited to accepted, mainstream practices. They are defined only by his personal power and integrity, and by whatever we both bring to the table in that moment. I have experienced no other who has such a healing touch, and I trust him completely to help me continue to find my own way.”

“Serafim’s method of energy balancing helped me to regain the vitality I had been so sorely lacking for several years and helped me to think and feel in a positive manner. I highly recommend him to anyone suffering from fatigue, low energy or the effects of long-term stress.”

Richard Monaco, Attorney

 

“Working with Serafim has been a revelation to me, and members of my family. We dealt with depression, trauma, relationships and conundrums of every day life. He is an innate healer. He treats mind and body with extraordinary sensitivity, clarity and common sense, from a deeply spiritual place. I trusted Serafim right away; I especially appreciated his having no personal agenda (and I have had many different therapists – I am 74).
All the above with a loving, lively sense of humor.”

“Upon my initial consultation with Serafim, I was seeking relief from chronic pain throughout my body--primarily associated with my neck and shoulders.  As I had hoped, he was able to help me immediately and for the first time in two years, I was able to enjoy a full night's sleep without discomfort.  Over time, the chronic pain has been dissolved completely.  Having said this, Serafim's gift of healing goes far beyond the physical realm.  Not only was I physically immobile, I was also plagued with anxiety and depression, which rendered me immobile emotionally and mentally.  Serafim has compassionately guided me through the process of healing these discomforts as well, by integrating the mind-body-spirit concept. (I view my healing as an ongoing process…evolvement, if you will.  I feel undying gratitude for having crossed paths with this man.  Knowing that he continues to be present with me as my experiences unfold and my life shifts is of great comfort to me.)

“After contracting Lyme and muscle pain-fibromyalgia aftermath, I needed serious help in my neck and back. Thirty visits to a physical therapist helped me get some fitness going, but the extreme tightness and neck discomfort remained.
When I met Serafim, I knew I found a professional with both the technical and intuitive “people” skills to start me on the road of health. After six months of therapy, I am relatively pain free and have resumed running, golfing and chasing after my 9-year-old.”

"Serafim is a seasoned body worker.  His wisdom of the body is conveyed in the gentle way that he weaves the technical along with his intuitive sense, resulting in a beautiful synergy of healing and energy transformation.  I would and have recommended him to others."

When our son, Michael, was three days old, he was rushed to Yale-New Haven Hospital's emergency room with dangerously low blood sugar.  He was at Yale for almost three weeks while the experts (endocrinology, neurology, genetics) told us that they didn't know what was wrong with him; they were certain that he would not get better on his own.  We invited Serafim to come do some healing energy work with him in the hospital.  Within two days, Michael needed one half the amount of intravenous glucose he had previously needed to maintain his blood sugar levels.  Within one week, he was released from the hospital and has never again had a problem with his blood sugar levels.

(For several years, I suffered with ongoing pain in my shoulder, whichseverely limited my ability to lead a full, active life.  At one point I was constantly on pain medication and unable to do simple tasks like roll up a car window.   When I met Serafim, I had already tried different treatments, such as ultrasound and massage.  They all gave short-term relief, but the pain and weakness quickly returned as soon as I resumed my regular
activities.)

Over a series of visits with Serafim, we identified and cured the
underlying reasons for my shoulder problems.  Soon, I resumed my favorite activities.  The pain and weakness are gone, and my body is healthier than it has been in years.  And best of all, Serafim helped me to better understand my body, so I can maintain that health on my own.

(“Three years ago, as I looked to the future, I felt I was staring at a big black wall.  I was emotionally drained and one doctor had recommended trying another antidepressant. As an alternative to that, a friend recommended I see Serafim.   After one session, I knew by the way I felt that what he offered was the help I was looking for. ) He has released years of stored tension in my muscles, helped to balance my energy and given insight into daily patterns of thoughts and actions and how they influence my energy.  More than just being relaxed, I have experienced actual physical changes in my body and energy patterns.  I believe there are people who are given the gift of healing and I know Serafim to be one of those people.”
