Sarty Mountain, Inc leader attends training
Wenatchee, WA.- Valda Sarty has recently returned from national-level training.
Valda Sarty, owner of Sarty Mountain, Inc., attended The Reconnection training in Burbank, California September 25-27. The workshop was provided by internationally-recognized speaker and founder of Reconnective Healing Dr. Eric Pearl.
Based in Los Angeles, Pearl and Reconnective Healing have found great interest from top doctors and medical researchers at hospitals and universities worldwide. These include Jackson Memorial Hospital, UCLA, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the VA Hospital, University of Minnesota, University of Miami Medical School and the University of Arizona – where Pearl addressed physicians at the request of Dr. Andrew Weil.
Sarty learned the philosophies behind the Reconnective Healing approach and plans to apply them to her work as a skin therapist and wellness professional at both Elements Salon & Wellness Spa and Refuel Spa & Salon.
“I have been an esthetician for many years, and I believe that there is an energy that is transferred between client and service provider. This training has helped me to understand this relationship and will help me apply it to my clients. I have always been fascinated by skin care and have spent years fine-tuning my knowledge and techniques. This training will add to that depth of experience and I’m eager to apply these principles during services that I perform,” explained Sarty.
Prior to the sudden appearance of his non-traditional healing abilities, Pearl ran a highly-successful L.A. based-chiropractic practice for 12 years. In August 1993, he discovered he had been blessed with an unusual “gift.” After 12 years of practicing traditional chiropractic medicine, he became a healing vehicle of a different kind: a conduit through which healing energy flows.
The film The Living Matrix, featuring Dr. Pearl’s work along with the scientists and research findings that support this form of healing, premiered October 2, 2009 at the famous Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, CA. This film is also being featured on the website www.TheLivingMatrixthemovie.com
Valda Sarty is the owner and founder of Sarty Mountain Inc., which encompasses a variety of salon and spa locations including Elements Salon & Wellness Spa, Refuel Spa and Elements University. Sarty was awarded the coveted “Best Retail Philosophy” award by Skin Inc magazine as well as honorable mention designations in the “Top Spa Mentor” and “Employee Friendly Salon” categories in August of 2007.
