TESTIMONIALS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pain management for fibromyalgia: I have been seeing Cristl Arndt for Spiritual Healing, Healing Touch, and treatment with Essential Oils since June 2004. I have Fibromyalgia and I have been going to Cristl for pain management. Her treatments are extremely relaxing and I often have immediate pain level improvement and in some cases I have remained pain free after seeing Cristl for 48 hours afterwards. I am in chronic pain daily, so any therapy that gives me that much relief is a God-send! I currently see her every other week for treatments and I consider it a mandatory part of my treatment plan and pain management. My medical team is aware of her treatments and my Dr. is very supportive and values what she is doing. The healing she has shared with me goes beyond just pain relief. It is centering and brings my body back to a state of balance mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It has also allowed me to reduce my dependency on prescription drugs and their side-effects and has raised my quality of life. -C. Homolya (April 2006) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Irritable bowel syndrome in remission: I first met Cristl through our mutual interest in Energy Healing. We attended several classes together, and I was very impressed with Cristl’s natural gift for healing and strong intuitive abilities. We worked together in our classes, and felt that Cristl’s work with me far surpassed the other members of our class. So, when I heard that Cristl had started her own healing practice in Cary, I was excited to begin seeing her on a regular basis. Cristl’s first challenge was to help me with digestive system issues (diagnosed as IBS) due to stress. I had gained a significant amount of weight, and was experiencing a great deal of gas, loose stools, bloating, and discomfort. Cristl worked with me and referred me to a Naturopathic Doctor. Over the next several months, my IBS symptoms virtually disappeared! I had suffered with these issues for over 12 years. And three months of working with Cristl and the Naturopath made me pain and symptom-free for the next six months! When I first went to Cristl, I was dealing with my mother’s ongoing illness, which eventually led to her death. Cristl worked with me to connect with my mother and to ease her transition from this earth. During the last session I had with Cristl, my mom appeared to me and told me that she needed me to come to her because it was her time to leave. I found out the next day that mom was dying, and I left immediately to be with her. When I spoke to my mom’s nurse, she told me that mom’s blood pressure took a serious drop at the exact time I had been on the table at Cristl’s and that my mom came to me. The nurse told me that had she not been right there at that time, mom would have passed away at that exact moment. Instead, mom was able to hang on for the entire family to come and be with her. I asked Cristl to pray for her, which she did, and felt so good that mom’s passing was exactly as she would have liked. Cristl has helped me to work through emotional insecurities that I had been harboring since childhood, and also helped me to understand how my uncontrollable food cravings were connected to certain emotional and spiritual aspects of myself. Cristl has also developed several tinctures for me (one for arthritis in my knee, and one for yeast infections) which have worked immediately and have very effectively handled these issues. I trust Cristl’s intuitive abilities, her strong spiritual connection and grounding, her work with essential oils and her strong energy healing work. She is quite gifted, and has been a tremendous blessing in my life. I strongly recommend Cristl to anyone that is experiencing emotional, physical, or spiritual challenges. Cristl will help you in a gently, caring, non-threatening way. She is my angel! -Maria A. White (April 2006) Durham, NC ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Neck pain from herniated discs healed and mobility restored: Cristl's gift for healing was apparent to me when I met her 20 years ago. I was recently able to experience it myself during a peaceful, soothing and inspired appointment to heal persistent and debilitating pain from several herniated discs in my neck. One year later, I'm still benefiting from the convincing success of her healing touch such that I have full mobility in my neck without any limiting discomfort. -Kris Crawford (2005) Ellicott City, MD ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Insights revealed by the Holy Spirit: Cristl Arndt is truly gifted in the ministry of healing. After a brief health and wellness evaluation, Cristl began our session with prayer, and I believe that the Holy Spirit was present throughout. My eyes remained closed, but I recall sensing bright spots of light on either side of my face as she worked near my head. This light would shift from right to left depending on which side she was on. As she moved to my lower limbs, I felt a warm tingling sensation run through each leg into my thighs. Afterwards, Cristl and I shared what we had experienced and I was amazed! All of her insights were very relevant to the health concerns and spiritual growth I was experiencing at the time. She encouraged me to process and interpret my healing session through prayer in order to fully benefit from it. Since then, I have felt more centered and aware of the things that God revealed to me through Cristl. She has initiated a process of spiritual healing for me, that has begun to translate into physical healing as well. Cristl, thank you for sharing your gift. The fruits of your labor have been a true blessing to me. "So by their fruits you will know them." Matthew 7:20 - Chi O. (Oct. 2004) Durham, North Carolina ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A story of distance healing: In late October of 2003, I developed a neurological condition in which I experienced symptoms of shaking, and tremors in my limbs and face nightly from that point through early summer. I saw my family doctor on a monthly basis, and five specialists - a neurologist, an infectious disease specialist, and three pulmonologists. Following a sleep study done in a local hospital, I was given a wide variety of prescription drugs at different times, to try to calm my symptoms with little success - in fact none. I was told by all doctors that there did not appear to be a cure for my strange illness. It seemed to be mimicking the early stages of Parkinson's Disease; and consequently, would probably progressively get worse as I age. About three months ago, in pure frustration, I started an intense period of research on neuropathy type conditions and symptoms, and discovered three supplements that seemed to be important in neurological disease - CoQ10, Vitamin D3 and B12. I read where people with severe nervous system disorders should take larger than normal doses of this trio of supplements. With Cristl's background in holistic nutrition, she was able to advise me on how much to take because too much of the supplements could prove to be toxic. I also had two long distance healing sessions with her, North Carolina to Pennsylvania. The day after the healing session I began to feel better! That lasted for most of the week and then I began to feel bad again, but I continued with my supplements. Cristl did another healing session one week after the first one. After about two weeks from the first healing session and taking my supplements I began to feel consistently better! During the late fall of 2003, I would have rated my physical, emotional and mental state a 2-3 on a scale of 10. Today, I would say, I have reached an 8! This has been going on for at least 8 weeks now, and I am thrilled since I had pictured myself deteriorating for the rest of my life. I have had many, many prayers said on my behalf by family and friends. I truly believe that the answer from those prayers was given to me in the form of the road taken in my healing process - holistic and spiritual. If I continue to heal and become "normal" as it were, in spite of the dire medical predictions given to me, I feel that I owe it all to my research findings, my approach, and my contacts with Cristl. -Michael G. (November 2004) Broomall, PA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Instant and permanent relief from post-operative pain: Two days after my hysterectomy in 2002, I was still experiencing excruciating pain, not only physically but emotionally as well. Cristl came to visit at my bedside and while I was telling her about my feelings, she suggested trying on me her curing powers. I was a bit skeptical because I thought no way her powers will be stronger than the Percocet that my doctor had prescribed, and which were not being effective to ease my pain. Cristl worked on me and when she left, the pain was gone. It is incredible, but after Cristl's visit I did not have to take anymore pain medication and went from two Percocets a day to zero. Cristl also has a pacifying force and mitigated my emotional pain. Thank you Cristl! - Helen Corona (March, 2001) Durham, North Carolina ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Healing of arthritis: For several years my big toe on my left foot had been hurting with arthritis to the point that I couldn't put any pressure on it, which meant that I had to be careful when I exercised. Also, my left knee bothered me when I used my clutch too often (road trips) or when I climbed the stairs too much, which I do always. I had heard about Cristl healing through prayer. That was what got my attention was the "through prayer". I wanted to be sure she really felt like GOD was leading her. After talking with Cristl and praying about her praying over me, I felt that asking her to pray over me and heal my toe & knee was the right thing to do. That has been about two years ago, and today I am still pain free in both my toe and my knee. Even if I begin to feel a little discomfort, it leaves as fast as it appeared. Now I exercise daily with no problems. I feel that Cristl is successful because she leaves it in GOD's hands and she follows His leading. That is the most important part to me. - Sandy Boyles (Sept. 2000) Durham, North Carolina ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Help for a nervous bride-to-be: I was feeling so stressed out being in a new country and planning my wedding, that I couldn’t sleep and my stomach was upset. Cristl did a healing touch session on me, which was awesome, and then she gave me some essential oils to take home and bathe with. For the first time in weeks, I slept like a baby and my nervous stomach was completely healed! - Maria S. (2005) Durham, NC ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hot flashes a thing of the past: I have been having terrible hot flashes from menopause so my doctor put me on hormone replacement therapy, which helped the hot flashes, but I was concerned about their safety. After two years of being on HRT, I decided to go off it because of the controversy surrounding it. Unfortunately, my terrible hot flashes returned. Cristl gave me an essential oil tincture to rub on my body 5 times each week for 3 months, and during that entire time I only experienced a couple of very mild hot flashes. Thank you, Cristl! - Linda H. (May 2004) Claremont, NC
