Meet Your Practitioner Cassondra Barbara

Cassondra Barbara loves being a family nurse practitioner and holistic wellness provider. Being able to pinpoint the root cause of an illness, and go beyond what lab work can provide using muscle testing, is gratifying.

A Journey of Discovery

Cassondra sittingAfter receiving her Master’s degree in nursing at D’Youville College, Cassondra took a three-level mind body spirit release course. A naturopathic doctor in Texas developed MBSR™ to help remove limiting thoughts, beliefs, or emotions stuck in our bodies that may cycle around to affect our organ systems. Sometimes our hormones can cause a problem, since every physical ailment starts as an emotion in our body.

Cassondra attributes muscle testing with her success in school. All the trials, tribulations, and stress from a hectic lifestyle created an imbalance. Getting her body back into balance allowed her to finish her education and convinced her to take muscle testing courses.

Muscle testing is an important addition to our practice. We can use supplements for anxiety and for depression, things that work within a day, without having to use medications like Xanax. It’s a matter of giving patients a choice in their health decisions.
