Shamanic Healing

Serving River Forest • Oak Park • Chicago

Shamanic Healing is a powerful spiritual modality that works directly with the soul, the subconscious, and the unseen world to restore balance, release energetic burdens, and reconnect you with your authentic essence.

A shamanic practitioner is a “walker between worlds” — one who journeys into the spiritual realm for healing, guidance, and restoration.

This work is ideal for those experiencing old emotional patterns, trauma, or a sense of disconnection from themselves.

What Is Shamanism?

Shamanism is not a religion — it is an ancient, universal system of healing practiced for thousands of years across cultures. Shamans served as healers, counselors, seers, and bridge-keepers between the physical and spiritual worlds.

At its core, shamanism recognizes:

  • everything is connected

  • illness often has an energetic or spiritual root

  • trauma creates fragmentation or “soul loss”

  • healing restores wholeness, power, and balance

Today, shamanic practices are experiencing a resurgence as people seek deeper, more soul-centered healing beyond conventional methods.

What a Shamanic Healing Session May Include:

  • Journeying & Guided Meditation

To uncover patterns, wounds, or energetic blockages.

  • Extraction Work

Removing intrusive energies that show up as pain, fear, anger, illness, or emotional heaviness.

Symptoms of spiritual intrusion:

  • localized or chronic pain

  • unexplained sadness, fear, anger

  • heaviness, stagnation, or lack of energy

  • Soul Retrieval

Restoring lost “soul parts” that left during trauma, shock, grief, loss, surgery, or emotional overwhelm (also known as Susto).

Symptoms of soul loss:

  • anxiety

  • addictions

  • depression

  • unresolved grief

  • relationship challenges

  • feeling empty or disconnected

  • “not feeling like yourself”

After soul retrieval, clients often experience more energy, clarity, resilience, meaning, and joy.

Inner Spring Wellness offers a safe sacred space for deep transformation.

This work requires the client’s active participation, a sincere desire for healing, and openness to the process.
