"Issues in your Tissues is compelling, honest, from the heart, grounded and believable. I recommend this book to anyone seeking insight into how to feel better."

~ Alan Cohen, author of I Had It All the Time, Haiku

 

I have been reading it at night before sleep and I have founded it so easy and smooth and so rich of "how to" without being repetitive or uninteresting. The stories of people are really good, I am drinking it up....hearing your voice as the narrator.

~ Francesca LaRue, Italy

 

I came to you with chronic pain in my hip, suffering for years on and off. It had become unbearable. I knew I was working through some past events that had felt unresolved, and had a sense you could be helpful with this. I had an intuitive sense that the pain was connected somehow.

Your methods were sometimes strange to me but I played along anyway. I was given a "safe space" to share and felt I heard without judgment. I left feeling a lightness and the pain had left me. I arrived home to a hot lavender bath, and slept for the first time in a VERY long time through the night pain free. I woke with surprise and gratitude. I have had lots of different types of body work and have had relief only to have it return during the night.

What has happened has been not a miracle but a tapping into my emotional pain that has disguised itself as physical pain. Denise you helped me release that, and unlike all the other therapists gave me tools to teach me to continue to "release" the pain myself.

Has the pain returned, yes but without the intensity it had before, and I am able to breathe into it and it disappears again. I have no doubt with time my body will be able to "remember" to release on it's own.

Paying attention to how I hang onto stress and "triggers" and where I feel it and then breathing into it instead of fighting it is a wonderful tool, that seems so simple yet so powerful.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me with this.

Thank you, you have a beautiful gift. Thanks for sharing it with me.

~ Karen Keller

 

"I just finished reading your book. What a delight! I was sad when I reached the end - I wanted to read more! The stories brought the book to life. There were many ah-ha moments - some for me, some for my clients."

~ Inga Jackson, Cape Town, South Africa

"I met you just after the Maui Marathon, seeking relief from sore legs but finding relief from a sore soul instead.  I am the writer who had never been in love.

I just wanted to thank you.  Your book is wonderful and I expect to use it as a life raft over the next couple months as I finally buckle down and get writing.  My gut says once I embrace that, the love part of the equation will follow.  I think I've always known the two were interconnected... it just took a serendipitous massage to steamroll me awake to it.  Thank you for driving the truck.  =)"

~ Oscar, Sales Rep, Los Angeles

 

"I am loving your book. You are a gifted writer and intuitive person. I found the story about you "asking" for your next client and the African American woman giving you knowledge (without her realizing it) incredible. Also, the stories mixed with advice is similar to how I put my book together. It is wonderful.

One day I will book a massage with you and I will be so blessed! Often, after a massage I have felt that I didn't release bottled up emotion and although it felt "nice," I knew there was something missing. You have found it. Same with "therapists" they didn't quite "analyze" it either. You have really a unique approach."

~ Denelee Brugman, Author of Happily Wed, Happily Fed, Portland

 

"I really like your book, and it really helps me understand what's happening in my body--and from a writer's standpoint, it's very well-written :)."

~ Sarah Ruppenthal, Journalist, Paia

 

"This information is elementary – and yet we need to hear it, again and again."

~ Joel Friedman, M.D., Kula

 

"Your book is wonderful. The first story I opened is the one of the lady who was abused as a child. The concepts you used to help her remind me of the ones I need to remember. So simple, so important, they are the basics of our being.

You have a great mission field for which you are willing to use your God-given gift.  Thank you for your willingness to help others!"

~ Linda Brown, Lubbock, Texas

 

“Your book is a work of art. I’ve learned so much from it.  Thank you for writing such a super book!”

~ Sue Nell, Artist, Haiku

 

"I enjoyed the journey of reading Issues in Your Tissues. LaBarre is perceptive. We all have this potential to heal ourselves using intuition as the vehicle. I am glad to see this information so well presented."

~ Rita Okeane, Principal Massage Therapist, Four Seasons Hotel, Wailea

 

"Denise helped me hear some things my body has been trying to tell me for a long time."

~ Franklin Levinson, Horse Whisperer, Aspen

 

 

Thank you for your life-changing, respectful, and inspirational work.  That’s what the word inspired means……”in spirit”…….right?!

I appreciate your kind & gentle way of guiding me through so many issues and helping me to see how I can simply CHOOSE different beliefs, outcomes, and responses.   While I have understood this on an intellectual level, I clearly wasn’t grasping it on the emotional/physical plane.  I am grateful for yesterday’s experience and the amount of knowledge & positive energy that you put into your life’s work.

T. Ramsey, Prague

 

 

"An interesting read. I enjoyed learning about massage from the therapist’s perspective. Our bodies really do have the answers we need and LaBarre shows us how to access them.”

~ Margaret Halava, Retired Human Resource Director, Okemos, MI
