Quantum-Touch® is an energy therapy that is based on the principles of resonance and entrainment. It is a profoundly effective, subtle, loved based form of hands-on healing. Employing an eloquent series of breathing techniques to create a high-energy field (resonance) in the hands, the Quantum-Touch facilitator acts as a focusing lens for bioenergy directing the energy into the area to be healed. Through the innate biological wisdom of the subjects body, the lower frequencies of the area of distress will rise up to match (entrain) to the higher frequency field being generated by the facilitator causing healing to occur. Even chronic conditions can be dramatically changed in as little as a single session. A truly extraordinary modality which must be experienced to be believed.

Recently, Richard Gordon, the developer of Quantum-Touch introduced the Level II workshop which is an expanded evolution of the original. This Workshop is now available in the Pacific Northwest through Hands of Freedom healing. Details follow.

Judie's journey into the energetic healing arts began in the mid 1970s as a result of a serious health challenge. She now credits that event as the key element to revealing many valuable insights and exciting possibilities.

Her health challenge led her to the discovery of Homeopathy and Naturopathy and to the care of a beloved and gifted practitioner. This form of energetic healing was her first glimpse into the world of light and energy modalities and their profound effectiveness. Under his tutelage, she began her exploration with Homeopathy and has continued on to learn more about many other energetic modalities with, seemingly, no end in sight.

Judie has gathered extensive working knowledge of various alternative/complementary practices and modalities from a variety of gifted mentors, trainers, and educators. Added to her Quantum-Touch (Level I & II Instructor and Practitioner), Three-in-One Concepts (Tools of the Trade), and BSFF (practitioner) certifications are several other related areas of study and training including; The Silva Method-all levels including the healing workshop conducted by Jose Silva, Raja Yoga, and Tai Chi. More recently her studies have included Regenesis Level I & II, Field Training, Qigong, Quantum Entrainment, EFT and the Sedona Method. Although a gifted healer overall, she has also dedicated herself to helping others learn this wonderful love based technique.

As a certified Quantum-Touch Level I and, newly certified, Level II instructor...

Judie has focused her efforts toward teaching workshops in the Quantum-Touch Techniques. In an effort to provide a quality experience for all attendees, she conducts Level I classes of up to 16 people, maximum. She was honored by QT Headquarters when they recently invited her to become the designated Level II instructor for the Pacific Northwest. Her schedule for 2012 will now include newly added Level II Workshops and because this advanced workshop builds on the original and is structured differently than the Level I work, larger class sizes are encouraged.

At each New Moon Ceremony we join with a growing number of others around the globe who come together and sound the Singing Crystal Bowls for the purpose of Unity, Peace and Harmony for all the inhabitants of planet Earth... our home!

We begin each gathering with a meditation and then sit in silence or join in with the Bowls by toning. The purpose of the evening is to gain peace and harmony by balancing our Chakras and releasing all unwanted energy patterns which may be unnecessary for a peaceful existence.

~ Client Testimonials ~

Many of Judie's clients have been dramatically effected and profoundly helped by her Energy Therapy. Here are a few client testimonials. Testimonials from some of her Quantum-Touch students regarding her teaching skills and the QT materials follow.

For years I have had a problem with my legs swelling from water retention in the evening. The problem was always much worse when I would go on trips. I was visiting Oregon on vacation and having a real problem with it, and had Judie work on it. After less than an hour treatment, the water started coming out. That was almost a year ago, and I have had virtually no water retention problem since then, even on trips. Also, I was having a great deal of pain in my left hip. Judie worked on it for about a half hour. I had no pain at all in that hip for about 3 weeks, and when I noticed that area again, the discomfort was very slight. I am sure that another treatment will totally eliminate the pain. ~ S.G. Estes Park, CO

Judie has shown me ways to work through my emotional issues and old baggage that I may never have found on my own. My active participation and exercises she gave me moved me through the healing processes very quickly, when psychiatrists barely made a dent. ~ J.S. Portland, OR

I had been traveling from Florida to California by plane and my back and hip joints and neck were killing me. Judie suggested a Quantum-Touch session, which I had never heard of before, but I was ready for anything. It did not take long for me to feel the deep relaxation like a deep sigh wave over my back, neck and hips. I was hiking the mountains the next day! ~ L.S. Winter Park, FL

The effects of Ms. Maron-Friend's Quantum-Touch were remarkable. Repeated injuries to my right thumb and right shoulder had resulted in what was diagnosed by medical professionals as progressive osteoarthritis. My family physician told me the only remedy was a constant regimen of prescription pain and anti-inflammatory drugs. After only one session to my thumb and shoulder, the swelling and pain in my lower thumb joint was greatly reduced and the pain in my shoulder totally disappeared for several weeks, without the aid of prescription or over-the-counter medicines. I am eager for the next session as I am sure that will completely eradicate these chronic conditions. ~ J.T. PhD., Charlotte NC

Judie has treated me several times with Quantum-Touch. I've found her treatment provided quick and lasting relief from headaches and total resolution from a severe recurring backache from an old injury. In addition to providing quick relief, the treatment is relaxing, calming and non-invasive. ~ T.F. Portland, OR
