TRADITIONAL HEALING

Greetings. I am a healer in an ancient wisdom healing tradition of the Central highland region of Mexico. I offer traditional Nahua healing sessions in my home consultorio in the North Country, Pierrepont, New York. 

As a healer in Traditional Nahua Healing I work in relationship with the healing forces of nature to address the spiritual root causes of illness and imbalance in all layers of a person’s being: body, mind, and spirit.

Welcome to my Consultorio!

                                                   What is Traditional Healing?

Traditional healing systems are based on ancestral knowledge and wisdom that has been passed down intergenerationally through thousands of years of living, dreaming, and engaging with the world and its natural cycles. 

While traditional healing systems around the world may be diverse, they all share a holistic view of health and wellness, one that recognizes no separation from Spirit. They offer humanity the medicine of harmony, deep healing, and beneficial transformation.

Traditional healers have received a calling by Spirit to walk the healer’s path. They undergo years of training and apprenticeship, pilgrimage, and eventually initiation by an elder in a time honored lineage.

Healers work with helping spirits and other sacred healing forces. The healing process may involve  prayers, counsel, rituals, herbal medicines, dreams, ceremonies, divination, hands-on healing, ritual cleansing, sacred songs, and other natural, earth-based interventions. 

 

Traditional Nahua Healing

Traditional Nahua Healing is an authentic, time-honored spiritual healing system indigenous to the highlands of central Mexico. A healer, (Tepahtiani), in this tradition works in a sacred relationship with the healing forces of nature to holistically address the spiritual root cause of illness and imbalance to restore harmony, balance, and personal well being. 

The work involves years of  building relationships with sacred medicine sites such as mountains and caves, and with the Clouds, Sun, Rain, Wind, and Lightning. Through these ancient ways of relationship and of reciprocal exchange - years of  pilgrimage, sacrifice, offerings, prayers, and humble dedication - the Divine in return offers healing and blessings to those in need in our physical realm. 

Before my clients arrive at my altar I call upon these deities and sacred sites and I ask for their healing assistance once again for the benefit of my clients.

To learn more about this profound healing system, please visit the Nahua Traditional Healing website:  www.traditionalhealers.com

 

What are sessions like?  You will be sitting with me at my traditional altar, and are invited to share your troubles and concerns. Life guidance to help strengthen and heal you on your life path, and / or a spiritual cleaning called a Limpia may be involved.

There are many forms of Limpia, depending on your condition and needs. The medicine will begin to unfold as you go out and engage in the arena of life relationships, where your circumstances can shift in positive ways.

Regular healing appointments are often recommended to support balance and renewal in your life.

TESTIMONIAL:

" It's as if a fog is lifting, as if my soul is smiling !  I have more clarity. It’s like I remember who I am at heart. I haven't felt like this in years!

On top of that I feel grounded, yet physically lighter,  like heavy burdens are being lifted out and off while you do the Limpia. My posture is aligned, I stand straighter. I can't even try to stay crooked!  

My future now feels exciting and hopeful, like when I was younger. Things have opened up. I have a newfound gratitude for my life, my friends and family, which makes me feel rich! 

Thank you!"  KO, Northern NY,  2026

How can Traditional Healing help you?

Traditional medicine promotes health and wellness through natural means, is beneficial for a wide range of human imbalances, and is complementary with modern medicine. In traditional understanding, true healing is brought about by directly addressing the root causes of illness and restoring balance. With Traditional Nahua Healing, we address the whole person by removing disease and foreign interference, and weaving beneficial circumstances and balance into the warp and weft of your life. 

Allied with the healing forces of Nature, this medicine works on the level of Spirit. As an antidote to chronic stress, sessions offer sustenance and support for physical health, and emotional and spiritual well being. During a Limpia there can commonly be a feeling sense of heaviness being cleared off.  I notice that people's eyes are brighter after a session. 

Shifts can show up after the session when the client re-engages back into the stream of life and relationship. Sometimes this is subtle, other times not. New possibilities and "Synchronicities" can arise, relationships can clear away or can change for the better, helpers arrive in surprising ways, doorways may open, and a new life cycle, fed by spirit, can begin to weave into the new reality. This reality is more coherent, aligned, and in integrity with their personal gifts, potential, and their authentic life path;  more of the person is available, they are refreshed and come home to themselves; a way forward is made.

I invite you to this work to see if it can be of help to you. Clients have been helped with diverse symptoms including these:

  • lightning strikes *
  • feeling lost or stuck
  • lack of meaning
  • lack of purpose, life path
  • autoimmune disease
  • relationship problems
  • emotional shocks
  • chronic stress
  • alienation
  • confusion
  • loneliness
  • diabetes
  • family troubles
  • trauma
  • anxiety
  • profound grief
  • addiction
  • fibromyalgia
  • chronic fatigue
  • chronic pain
  • soul loss

* Dealing with the effects of lightning strikes is a unique specialty of Nahua Tepahtiani.  Please contact me as soon as possible after the event.

COMPASSION KEY SESSIONS

Compassion Key® Sessions are a simple yet powerful system for healing the wounded self, the inner child, for dissolving karmic distortions, and spontaneously bringing our heart and soul's deepest desires into form.

When we allow ourselves to sit completely in our own subjective experience and direct love and compassion towards ourselves, something powerful and transformational happens. What was once a trigger opens into new potential. Which recurring obstacle, if removed, would make the biggest difference in my life right now?

Through a guided journey, empowered by your own self compassion, you are clearing frustrations, blocks, triggers, stress patterns at a very deep formative level. 

Childhood wounds   •   Health issues   •   Addictions   •   Relationships   •   Financial struggles  • 
 Self esteem
   •   Life purpose   •   Self-limiting unconscious beliefs   •   

I am a Certified Master Compassion Key Coach.

 "Jody’s Compassion Key changed my life. I’d been in therapy for over a decade, and had gotten a lot out of it, but I was also still “stuck". Two sessions of Compassion Key were as valuable to me in my healing process as my entire previous decade of therapy! " - K.H. 2023

ATLAS and BODY BALANCING

image

The Atlas is the gateway for the entire nervous system. 

The Atlas bone is the first vertebrae in the neck supporting the skull. It maintains the passageway for nerve and blood flow from he brain to the rest of the body. When the Atlas is misaligned it can be a major source of chronic pain syndromes in the body, conditions affecting the back, shoulder, knee, ankle, joint, hip and neck, as well as TMJ, digestion problems, inflammation, challenged immune systems, scoliosis and more.

Atlas Balancing is an energetic technology using light touch and sound code Therapy. The body responds, realigning this major portal between the body and the brain on its own. No physical manipulation is used.

 

With the first session the Atlas goes into place, where it stays, allowing the body to unwind and align. Afterwards many health conditions, traumas, and restrictive patterns in the physical, emotional and mental bodies begin to release as well. For some people this is felt profoundly, and for others it is a barely perceptible experience.

What makes this work so unique and unlike other Atlas protocols?

  • Atlas Balancing™ is a gentle, non-aggressive modality.
  • No manipulation or adjustment.
  • Normally the Atlas only needs one session.
  • Increases the effectiveness of all other modalities.
  • Empirical research shows most experience immediate results. Helps significantly improve flexibility, range of motion, stability and pain.
  • Ignites the body’s own innate self-healing wisdom.

Atlas Balancing is not a medical therapy, does not involve a diagnostic routine, nor is it chiropractic or osteopathic manipulation. No diseases are treated specifically. The sole function of these sessions is to support the SELF HEALING capacities of the person, physically and psychologically, as well as for working on the energetic levels. The possible physical reactions that you might experience during the self healing process may involve muscular tensions, nerve irritations, fatigue, or modification for the jaw joint and teeth positioning as the body unwinds.

These sessions can be done over Zoom if necessary.

Cost of Atlas Balancing: $250.00 Initial session (Mothers with young babies, around 6 months or younger, can be done together at same time (no extra charge for baby).  Children - Usually one session, $125.00. 

Body Balancing is recommended about 4-6 weeks after your Atlas Balancing sessions. These sessions deepen and complete the work that has begun, but focuses on the Sacrum, the Coccyx, the Xyphoid and more. These sessions can jump start the self-healing capabilities of your whole system on many levels. Body Balancing: $225.00, Initial session.

ATLAS BALANCING for Animal Companions

Complimentary Care for our Animal Companions     

"It is astounding to see that animals are very ready to be treated like this. It is clearly seen and very touching to observe that after having communicated what has been done for them, the next one will willingly come and hold its head in readiness to be treated as well."  G, Germany

Atlas Balancing is a dynamic breakthrough, a new paradigm in healing technology for humans and animals. 

Atlas Balancing has long term benefits and is completely safe; there are no physical manipulations or adjustments. The innate wisdom of the body of the animal supports this process naturally. 

With only soundcodes that are sung, and light therapeutic touch the Atlas is invited to shift permanently into its natural centered position. After the Atlas is aligned, the "swagger" of the animal will self-correct and the body undergoes an organic step-by-step self-healing process as inner and outer tensions begin to unwind throughout the whole system. Lethargic animals can become more vivacious while restless or anxious animals become calm. Traumas and old injuries can begin to be shaken off and released.

 Typically you will witness a rejuvenating effect upon your older animal companions. They may regain flexibility,  show an increase in comfort  upon rising and in their range of motion. They can become more playful, expressing themselves in ways they may not have for years due to aging or arthritis. and it can alleviate insecurity issues! Each individual will have their ownunique unfolding. These results can be instantaneous and will continue to develop over time. When horse and rider have received this work, both can move together with greater ease and flexibility; a balanced rider causes less stress on the horse and vice versa.

 TESTIMONIALS;  (see testimonial page)

Sat Nam Jody, I Just had to let you know that since her Atlas Balancing / Sound Codes Session a few days ago, Luna, continues to surprise me! Beyond my dreams, 💞 my 13 year old dog is having a second puppy hood ! Like today, when my partner came home from work ~ she normally moseys out to greet him ~ but this evening she skipped out the door, tail swinging, with my sandal in her mouth !  And now she is hopping up into the car on her own! For the past 3 years we had a system to get into the car. She would put her front paws on the running board and I would have to hoist her back end up onto the seat. NEW system: I open the car door and she steps up and IN before I know what's happening! No kidding, and she even jumped up on my back - something I discouraged forever and she hasn't done in, well, forever! This is so important because our fur babies suffer beyond our comprehension ~ I do my best to support her health but the Codes release and heal at a whole other level !Thank you 🌻 L.B.    July 2019     Photo on Right: Luna

TESTIMONIALS

 COMPASSION KEY:

"Jody’s Compassion Key changed my life. I’d been in therapy for over a decade, and had gotten a lot out of it, but I was also still “stuck". Two sessions of Compassion Key were as valuable to me in my healing process as my entire previous decade of therapy! " K.H. 2023

“Your Compassion Key sessions are life changing! I still use the Compassion Key process we practiced during my session for other triggers that arise! So healing and affirming !" MB, Potsdam, NY.

“ After my COMPASSION KEY initial session with Jody I have had a major breakthrough on a burden I have been harboring for 30 years.  It is very freeing and I believe will lead to positive changes in a very important relationship in my life.” A. 2022

"With Jody’s help I have been able to reach back into my past - and myself - to offer the love, acceptance and understanding I would want always to offer readily to a friend or loved one, but somehow withhold from myself. Jody is an incredibly skilled guide and prompt on this journey. In both of the sessions I’ve had with her, Jody has somehow pinpointed exactly the emotional painpoints affecting me at that time, and then helped me to meet lovingly with my child self who is always at the epicentre of such pain. Through this compassionate communion, I’ve gained access to the happy, joyous and free person that I want to be in the world and who indeed I am, at depth. Jody is insightful, intuitive, warm, kind and safe. I recommend her as a Compassionate Key practioner to anyone who, like me, wrestles with feelings of low self-worth, self-doubt and harsh self-judgment and who wants to emerge fully into the sunlight of the spirit. "  Nel H, Montana

Jody helped me release childhood trauma around not wanting to be seen or heard. We were able to achieve an amazing breakthrough that I was unable to get with 20+ years of spiritual/healing work. I can’t wait to see how this will change my life.—Wayne L. in Maryland, USA  ★★★★★

"My session with Jody peeled back a layer of pain and anguish I have been living with for my whole life. I feel lighter, wholes and more integrated than before and am so thankful for her presence, compassion and love as a healer!

Also I should add, in the weeks that followed my session with her, I repeated the process in different forms, and found myself peeling back even more layers on my own, like a domino effect. Thank you and blessings!!!" —Tim C. in Valle de Bravo, México 

"I was very impressed with how powerful my Compassion Key session was Jody. I am a level one Compassion Key facilitator myself and I have worked with another Master Compassion Key facilitator and found that Jody's ability to pinpoint statements that brought great release of hidden beliefs and blocks was incredible! The work we did went very deep, and I am happy to walk freer and lighter now that those constrictions body, mind, heart, and spirit have been released. Wow!! I am very excited to continue working with Jody." Lisa S, Colorado, USA 

"The Compassion Key session opened up my viewpoint on a challenging situation I was navigating with a coworker. Reaching out to my younger self allowed me to view my actions and reactions to traumas that occurred to me as a child in a new light. I was able to give empathy to myself which made the problem with the coworker less daunting. After completing my sessions, I can keep my stress level better in check when I deal with psychic vampires. It is freeing!" M,  Potsdam NY

"I would recommend anyone looking to heal old wounds and traumas do Compassion Key work with Jody as she has the tools to unlock the past and help move you gently into your present so your future can be happy, successful, and fruitful." Mandy B.

“ My Compassion Key session with Jody was cathartic for me. I was able to work through past trauma, and it left me feeling more whole and powerful. I highly recommend this type of healing! Thank you, Jody. ”     J.F.

“ Jody gently guided me through the session, which I found to be  powerful and transformational. During and after my session I felt a lot of shifts and releases. I have tears of gratitude for the love it is giving me. It's hard to describe, but something feels restored.”    Anne.

 "During my Compassion Key session I loved how I was able to be in the comfort of my own home. as we did this type of work together virtually, and yet I still felt completely connected with Jody during the experience. I would recommend anyone looking to heal old wounds and traumas do compassion-key work with Jody as she has the tools to unlock the past and help move you gently into your present so your future can be happy, successful, and fruitful. " M.B.

 “After my Compassion Key session with Jody I have had a major breakthrough on a burden I have been harboring for 30 years.  It is very freeing and I believe will lead to positive changes in a very important relationship in my life.”  Anne.

TRADITIONAL MEDICINE:

 

" It's as if a fog is lifting, as if my soul is smiling !  I have more clarity. It’s like I remember who I am at heart. I haven't felt like this in years!

On top of that I feel grounded, yet physically lighter,  like heavy burdens are being lifted out and off while you do the Limpia. My posture is aligned, I stand straighter. I can't even try to stay crooked!  

My future now feels exciting and hopeful, like when I was younger. Things have opened up. I have a newfound gratitude for my life, my friends and family, which makes me feel rich! 

Thank you!"  KO, Northern NY,  2026

"Jody is a powerful healer and shaman on many fronts and her work has been life changing for me.” M.B. 

"I would highly recommend anyone with any spiritual inclination towards life to seek out Jody Wallace, She has many tools and services to offer anyone to piece together this mystery called life. I am amazed every time!"  Joe, Canton, NY.

ENERGY MEDICINE SESSIONS:

"I call on Jody for regular treatments of my elder cat. I find that he responds well to the combination of modalities that she uses. I also call her when I can tell he needs a lift. I believe in her and I believe in the medicine of Spirit, but today was one of those miraculous occasions in which we got to see an immediate benefit of the work. Within minutes after her treatment, he got up off the bed and regurgitated a huge hairball. He's now sleeping comfortably again. This isn't trivial. My vet tells me that hairballs are believed to be a sign of disease. I've noticed that no matter how much hairball stuff I give him and how much I brush him, he gets them, they interfere with his ease and his body seems to have trouble moving them out. I believe Jody's treatment moved this obstruction through his system immediately. Yeah!!!!!" Jill, Potsdam, New York

 "Jody is a skilled, knowledgeable and compassionate practitioner of many healing modalities. She's my go-to person anytime I or my cats are out of balance. Her work targets the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of dis-ease, according to your need at the time. " J.C, Potsdam, NY

ATLAS  and BODY BALANCING 

 "Atlas Balancing is shockingly effective bringing healing physically, and beyond. The session this past week addressing my back pain reduced the pain significantly but moreover, put me in an altered state of profound calm for hours after. This was a huge gift as I have been so extremely anxious/panicked so much recently. This technique and YOU are gifts to the world!! Thank you so much and I’m looking forward to more sessions." Cheryl G.

"Jody's follow up with the horses and with me was amazing! I had another unwind after my session and my body kept trying to find a new way of aligning while she worked on me." Joan F, Canada.

"ATLAS BALANCING released emotional blocks that stunted my growth. After treatment, I felt comfortable handling personal projects that had stalled for years."  M, Potsdam, NY

I found Atlas Balancing tremendously helpful and would recommend it to anyone suffering from anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic pain or just an overall sense of ungroundedness." M.B, New York 

"The act of listening to CODES during Atlas Balancing is therapeutic on it's own and centers one's mind. In the days after my first session, I felt a deeper awareness of my place in the universe as connected to other living things...The work reopened my heart after years of grief. Although I thought I had already healed and moved forward, it became clear during the second session that I was still holding on to the pain of loss. This awakening brought me new comfort and joy.  I feel love and gratitude more fully and free again, as I did when I was a child." M, Potsdam, NY.

"The act of listening to codes during Atlas Balancing is therapeutic on it's own and centers one's mind. In the days after my first session, I felt a deeper awareness of my place in the universe as connected to other living things." M.Q. Potsdam, NY

"Give yourself the GIFT of an ATLAS BALANCING session with Jody to experience changes in your mind, body and awareness. It is just tremendous! Since receiving the Codes, I have noticed that my mind is clearer and more focused; my body continues to heal in strength, stamina as well as a reduction in pain; my awareness is expanding into greater perception of light, color, sound and aliveness in the natural world and in relationships. There is a greater ease and joy in living. If Jody adds the gifts of the Plant Spirits as well, the freedom of living with ease and health is even greater. Give it to yourself now!" Betsy, Canton, NY.    PS: "today is quite something.. my awareness is quite expanded in stillness and my left knee is markedly better. Wow!!"  Betsy, Canton, New York.

  "My experience with Atlas Balancing and Body Balancing: I came to Jody for Atlas Balancing in late July 2017 after feeling particularly ungrounded and like I was practically stumbling through life. I was about to embark on a two week trip to Europe and wanted to be as present and balanced for it as possible so I came to Jody and we began the process. By the end of my 4 sessions, I felt more in control of my body, my emotions and my spiritual self. I walked with more intention and felt like I was able to process information better and like my emotions were much more stable and predictable. I had been experiencing a lot of “internal wind” that felt almost like I had an undercurrent of electricity running through my body that was significantly decreased after we completed the Atlas Balancing and the Body Balancing sessions and my sleep, my overall balance and my coordination all greatly improved. My ability to dream and remember my dreams also started to reignite and I found myself remembering things I might have previously forgotten.  M, Potsdam, NY

"After the Body Balancing session I noticed a number of changes in myself. My focus is better and I have a lot more energy. I have a different frame of mind with more positive thoughts and less procrastination. I have more determination. The "I should really do this now" is more like " I WILL to do this now! I am also more organized!"   T.B., Degrasse, NY., (Several months after her Body Balancing session).

"Atlas Balancing reopened my heart after years of grief. Although I thought I had already healed and moved forward, it became clear during the second session that I was still holding on to the pain of loss. This awakening brought me new comfort and joy.  I feel love and gratitude more fully and free again, as I did when I was a child." M.Q, Potsdam, NY.

ATLAS BALANCING for ANIMALS:

"Last night after her Atlas Balancing and Energy Work session my dog Willow was zonked, as you expected. She did eat like crazy though both last night and this morning. Today was fascinating. First, I didn’t see her ALL day. She went upstairs and slept on my bed and didn’t care where I was one bit! Usually if I stop fast she’s runs into me, tagging so close at my heels, but when we were outside she was playful and chased some squirrels and she hasn’t been playful in a long time! I gave her a massage in the grass and grounded her and told her affirmations like “ you’re safe here,” “you’re so loved, “this is your forever home.”  S.T.   July 2019

Atlas Balancing for Horse and Rider: 

"I am thrilled with Jody and the power of Atlas Balancing. I highly recommend it for healing on all levels and for both humans and animals.  My personal experiences in receiving Atlas Balancing and Body Balancing with Jody were so profound that I invited Jody to come to Kingston to give an Atlas Balancing session to my horses Rasa and Danny."  Joan F, Canada

   "Finney is 13 years old and has been  in training  here  with  me since he was born. He has always been a bit sensitive. He is a Thoroughbred - Connemara cross. I needed help gaining his cooperation and he needed help becoming more courageous.  With all these issues I have seen a major improvement after his Atlas Balancing session.  His anxiety over encountering new things is reduced and he does not argue with me over what speed we will be going. Now he's more settled, relaxed and mellow, teams up with me, listens to commands  more readily, and is much easier, safer, and more enjoyable to ride. All this took place within a day after his treatment, so I am very happy with the results of this session.  It has been such a great investment and well worth it.  He continues to improve.

The burro is less 'Eeyore-ish', has a softer eye and feel about him.  He too has become  more cooperative and not such a grouch as he was.  He seems happier. Tanka, is a 12 year old Appaloosa who just recently came here. He had a lot of issues, being very introverted and not wanting to relate to anyone.  Between the Atlas Balancing and the Animal Energy Healing work he has really come out of his shell and is now interacting happily with humans and the other horses. He can have a whole new life with new possibilities now. Huxley, a retired event horse, has some issues with arthritis.  He has been treated with Atlas Balancing with some success and has become more athletic. 
 

The horses seemed to really love receiving the work, and I am very happy with the results! "  Anne. Canton, NY

TRADITIONAL House and Land LIMPIAS

TRADITIONAL HOUSE and LAND CLEARINGS, (LIMPIAS)  

There are many reasons why someone might need a house limpia, or cleaning. From a leaky roof and mold invasions, feeling uneasy in the home or sensing a presence, family arguments, recurring bad dreams, to someone having passed away in the home, criminal activities, and more.  

If there is a problem these cleanings restore well being and balance in the family and  home life, and if need be, the surrounding lands. Limpias can have a big impact on your health, your life, your family and pets, and add sweetness and peace to the ambiance of your home sanctuary. 

These can take 2 or more visits to accomplish, depending on the strength of what is happening, what kinds of things need to be cleared out, or what goodness needs to be invited in. The first visit involves a consultation and an assessment, while the follow ups are to get the job done.

TRADITIONAL Medicine, Personal Backstory

TRADITIONAL NAHUA MEDICINE; Background Information

https://www.traditionalhealers.org/glossary

     The journey that designates a weather worker and a healer in this tradition typically involves what is known as a "Calling".

The most classic sign of this calling is getting struck by lightning and surviving. Some may experience strong dreams and have unusual interactions with  natural or seemingly supernatural phenomena, such as the weather. Another key signature is having an "incurable" illness, which to some indigenous wisdom cultures is known as the "Illness of Calling". 

Although one is originally chosen and initiated by the forces of weather, after going through a formal (human) Ancestral initiation process, some feel that their health issues  improve. Additionally, solid time - tested guidance from ancestral lineage capacitates stepping into service as an intermediary between their people and the forces of the weather,  *(Respectively known regionally as a Granicera, and as a Quialtzques, (pronounced:"Key-altz-kays"), and if called, as a healer, known as a Tepahtiani. 

 My personal journey towards Traditional Healing first involved many years of strange dreams and interactions with Spirit which first led me towards training with other healing systems. Eventually, in 2007, after a traditional assessment by a Nahua Lineage elder, Don David WIley, I was initiated and "crowned" in formal ceremony as a weather worker, (Granicera). In 2013 I began a formal apprenticeship that culminated in initiation in 2021 as a healer, (Tepahtiani). I return yearly to my Mexican homelands to engage in ceremony and to deepen in my knowledge as a worker and healer in these ways.

This apprenticeship is currently under the auspices of Don David Wiley, who was crowned & trained in the Granicero tradition under the instruction of the well-known Nahuatl shaman Don Lucio Campos Elizalde in 1996. Don Lucio, pictured below, lineage elder and ceremonial leader in a weather working / healing tradition in Mexico. He passed in 2005 at age 99, handing over to don David the work of carrying on in his stead.

Don Lucio had predicted decades ago that soon the weather would become very destructive, and people from all corners of the world would be called to become weather workers for benefit of their communities. (Don Lucio, Pictured to right).
