Deanna Waggy - South Bend, Indiana and Midwest

What IA classes do I teach? If you are interested in hosting a class in the Midwest, let's talk about the possibilities! I currently teach Introduction to Insight Acupressure, Clinical Acupressure 1 & 2, Process Acupressure 1A & 1B, Good Points for Self-Care workshops and Acupressure for Anyone workshops. In addition to teaching Insight Acupressure, I also teach ZB I & II for the Zero Balancing Health Association.
 
Why do I love IA?  I believe Insight Acupressure and Zero Balancing (ZB) are two of the best ways to address stress, anxiety and trauma trapped within the multi-layered fabric of our whole being. Insight Acupressure is yin to the yang of Zero Balancing; both assist with promoting expanded states of awareness and neuroregulation of the vagus nerve. The Seva Stress Release acupressure protocol is my favorite self-care home program. I also love being part of an insightful community of conscious people interested in soul wisdom, transformation and whole being health. 

My Background: DW Healing Arts: Ancient Wisdom. Modern Practices. Whole Being Health. I love problem solving, and integrating the gifts of Occupational Therapy, Insight Acupressure, Zero Balancing, and Spiritual Direction into my private holistic practice in South Bend, Indiana. I also love teaching and sharing resources with others. I am involved in ongoing research and public speaking to promote the use of Insight Acupressure and ZB in traditional therapeutic settings. I published multiple articles on acupressure in various peer-reviewed journals and collected/co-edited 90 Insight Acupressure case studies for the book Empowering Whole Being Health in 2018. I enjoy mentoring holistic practitioners, leading self-care retreats and promoting the use of integrative health modalities to address all dimensions of wellness.
