About Diana Wells
I am an experienced and skilled Holistic Practitioner and Healer with over 35 years of experience in mindful movement, meditation, and energy practices. Seven years of experience in intensive Qigong study and practice with world-renowned Qigong masters and acupuncturists.
My journey into the world of energy healing began in 1975 when I was in college for my degree in nursing. As helpful as western medicine was I could see its limitations and knew there had to be more choices available for healing. When I heard the words holistic health I knew this was what I was looking for and studied with the founders of Therapeutic Touch to become a Therapeutic Touch practitioner. I was the first nurse in a number of hospitals to document Therapeutic Touch as a complementary treatment modality in patient care.
In 1984 I graduated from Albany Medical College with a Family Nurse Practitioner degree and worked in a variety of healthcare settings, including holistic practices.
My path continued into the world of Reiki where I became a certified practitioner. In 1997 I became a Tellington Touch Practitioner for companion animals. TTouch is a healing modality that addresses behavioral and health issues of virtually any animal through massage and movement exercises. In recent years TTouch has extended into the realm of healing for humans.
Through Tellington Touch I came to study The Feldenkrais Method, an awareness through movement method. I graduated in 2003 from their four-year training program and had a private practice in Feldenkrais for many years.
In 2011, I was introduced to Qigong and immediately knew this was my calling and where I would find endless pleasure and fulfillment for the rest of my life. I have found Qigong to be the most effective energy method for understanding and experiencing the universal life force energy. Qigong has transformed every aspect of my life and has given me the gift of immeasurable joy.
I have incorporated all that I have learned over the years into my Qigong practice, including my many years of meditation and mindful movement from the Feldenkrais method. I have also integrated Qigong into my Tellington Touch practice when working with dogs and cats.
With my knowledge of science and medicine, my experiences in a variety of energy practices, my awareness of being a seasoned meditator I can skillfully guide you on your healing journey.
I have had the great honor of studying and practicing Qigong and energy practices with world-renowned Healers, Qigong Masters, and Acupuncturists.
I am certified by:
- Qigong Master Robert Peng to teach all of his work including the Master Key 1 & 2 and to perform Qigong Healing Massage.
- Qigong and Tai Chi Master Roger Jahnke O.M.D. to teach Qigong and Tai Chi Easy.
- For over 10 years I have been studying with renowned acupuncturist Jonathan Klate P.h.D., Lic.Ac, a pioneer in bringing acupuncture to the United States and author of The Tao of Acupuncture. My studies with him include Qigong, meditation and the direct experience of Qi.
