Mexico Trip Testimonial
The week was an invaluable experience and well worth my while. Amber is amazing, understanding, empathetic, brilliant and just gets it! This provided a feeling of comfort and safety critical to be able to do this work. Loved CBT at the beach! It was very comforting to share with someone who really gets it.
Mexico Trip Testimonial
I really enjoyed working with Amber, very professional, genuine and caring. Interested in ensuring my total health, very thorough. I liked her holistic approach and overall integrity. I liked how we got to talk with each other in an open and compassionate way. She did a good job listening and providing feedback, getting to the tough issues without seeming at all invasive or overbearing. Very trustworthy and high integrity. I liked the CBT (sessions) because they were effective. I also really liked the tuning fork, seemed like quite a powerful intervention for me. The beach bonfire was really powerful and spoke to me deeply. I really enjoyed that we had such a great group of people there – what a special evening! I had a fantastic time and I’ve already recommended to all my friends- I think one is already planning to come! Amber, remember you have a special gift and it’s important for so many people’s lives.
Mexico Trip Testimonial
Amber is very knowledgeable about the multi-faceted aspects of working with chronic immune and nervous system dysfunction. She is also hard working and solution focused. I was really hoping for someone with a bird’s eye view to put together an actionable plan to follow, after being diagnosed with so many things and given so many treatments, some conflicting. I would say I came into the week pretty open minded (or desperate), and appreciated that on the last morning Amber came up with a plan that tied together all of the approaches and methods we had tried.
Mexico Trip Testimonial
I cannot recommend the Cranio Biotic Technique offered by Amber enough. Within just a few sessions, I noticed a remarkable improvement in my long COVID symptoms, something that no other treatment has been able to achieve in three years. I am genuinely surprised and grateful for the positive shift it brought to my body and overall well-being. If you’re seeking an effective solution for long COVID, give this technique a chance – you won’t be disappointed!

Booking Process
When you book, you’ll be taken to the calendar to select a 2-hour Monday visit for your first session in Mexico. (Note: visits are scheduled in Mountain Standard Time, which is sometimes in sync with Mexico time, and sometimes an hour off.)
The schedule for the rest of the week (Monday afternoon-Friday) will be sent to you as you get closer to your trip.
Right after you book, you’ll get an email with intake paperwork and a survey that asks questions about what you’re looking for as part of your experience, so that Amber can customize it to you. (Be sure to check your junk mail folder and complete this as soon as possible!)
Once you submit the survey and intake paperwork, Amber will call you to discuss and clarify your goals for the trip, any remaining logistics and to answer any questions you may have. You’ll also have access to a PDF file that outlines her suggestions for local resources and contacts in the area.
Cancellation Policy
Amber puts a great deal of time and planning into this process to create a special experience for visitors. This experience is payable up front and is non-refundable, but it IS transferable.
In other words, if you cancel the trip for any reason, you’ll have the chance to reschedule in the future during the next month that has openings. However, if you decide not to come at all, the payment is not refundable.
