The most important factor is the patient’s openness to the process. You don’t need to believe in it or have faith, but being receptive helps a lot. A big part of the session involves building trust so that patients feel comfortable discussing deeper emotional or lifestyle factors that could be tied to their condition.
Healing works best when the patient actively participates. This could mean practicing simple meditations, breathing techniques, light exercises, or even making small changes to their diet. While some purely physical issues might improve after just a few sessions, many cases need more effort—especially if stress, lifestyle choices, or habits are causing the problem. For example, someone working 12-hour days, 7 days a week, would need to make some adjustments for long-term stress relief. Healing is about treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
