Home Transition Services
Dr. Pautz of the Persephone Healing Arts Center in Jacksonville Beach Florida will be offering New Services-“Transition Support”-after hours, for those in close proximity to Persephone. This will focus on pain management, and spiritual support. This will be available in 1 hr. or 2hr. sessions as home visits. Her contributions will be strictly focused on the above mentioned topics, hands on pain management, and supportive counseling. Dr. Pautz will not be available for any prescriptions or service support arrangements. These would need to be handled by the in network providers of the patient. Pain treatment has become a health crisis in the Western world. With many patients being prescribed opioids to combat pain, one out of four statistically, will become addicted. Hence there has been a mind shift in the conventional medical community heading towards more traditional treatments that have been used in different cultures for hundreds and thousands of year
Hydrotherapy
It uses various forms of water applications. This can be hot or cold baths, showers, foot baths or saunas, and many more.
Meditation, Mindfulness & Prayer
These are important practices to keep us aligned on many different levels. They comfort and get us in touch with our higher self. They help us to be more peaceful on our path.
Meditative Movement
Movement comes in all sorts of ways. Even when bedridden, some people that have practiced yoga or tai chi or eurythmy can mentally and with minimal physical movement practice some exercises.
Massage, acupuncture and hydrotherapy (water applications) are some of the modalities that are now commonly recommended and mentioned by our boards as adjunct treatments in addition to over the counter or prescription medicines for management of pain. Dr. Pautz has been using traditional tools for pain management since she opened her doors 23 years ago. Some of her patients come for her hands. Mindfulness exercises and meditation as well as art therapy can be very helpful as additional tools to learn and acquire new coping strategies To find out more: Persephone Healing Arts Center, www.DrPautz.com. 904.246.3583
