Graceful Waves Wellness Center — Attraction in Wheeler

This reviews has two parts: Dr. Dawn’s spinal network care Tatiana’s massage and healing work

Dr. Dawn’s spinal network care Extraordinary repair, healing and transformation of my body-mind into much greater well-being, presence and coherence. This is what I have experienced for the last two years under the wonderful loving and deeply skilled care of Dr. Dawn Sea Kahrs at Graceful Waves Wellness Center. I am not exaggerating in telling you that Dr. Dawn is capable of doing miracles, and I know that I’m not the only one who feels this way.

Her subtlest of precise touches have caused remarkable positive shifts, reconnecting my bones, muscles, tissues and nervous system into greater connectivity and energy flow. Old trauma and injury leftovers that left me in pain and distress for most of my adult life caused me to seek out many health practitioners. I received benefit from all of them, but only while being under the expert care of Dr. Dawn have I experienced such significant repair and lasting lessening of symptoms.

I can actually imagine a time, perhaps not long from now, where there will be no more painful remnants felt from my injuries. Wow. I had no idea before coming to Dr. Dawn that this could be a reality for me.

And it’s not only my body that is being healed and uplifted each time I get an entrainment, but my whole being feels optimized every single time. This helps me to respond to all that life brings with much greater vitality, coherence, capability, strength and heart. This is even more appreciated at a time where we are facing such intensity and challenges on Earth.

Add to that the loving kindness and wonderful humor of Lori, Dr. Dawn’s office manager, and the spectacularly beautiful new Wellness Center right on the Nehalem Bay, which radiates such healing energy within and without… well, for me this is really as good as it gets! I am so grateful.

Tatiana’s massage and healing work I recently had the fortune of receiving a series of Tatiana’s massages/healing treatments. They resulted in a noticeable increase in well-being and energy.

I enjoyed many of her remarkable and effective healing tools (some of which she brought from Russia and are quite rare). Her treatments were way more than a nourishing relaxing massage. They included lymphatic support and detoxification, high quality essential oil treatments, hot stones and towels, energetic rebalancing, and the best facial massages ever (making me look 20+ years younger)!

Tatiana has the ability to tune in to what is needed most, and is a true healer. I find her so lovely, kind and wise. She’s had a thriving healing practice in Portland for many years. What a gift that she joined the fabulous team at Graceful Waves Wellness Center. If you can do a 2-hour session with her, you’ll get the full works, but I've experienced the shorter sessions also as a big treat. In any case, highly...

TLDR: The care here is valuable to anyone. It doesn't matter what your starting point is, come here if you can. It will improve aspects of your life given time and trust. The people here are great, the care is great, and I have so much to be thankful for from receiving care here.

To preface the longer part of the review, I would like to say that this is my current understanding and perspective on Network Spinal Care, it may change. (12-31-24)

Here is a list of the largest changes I've noticed since starting my care here around 8ish months ago.

More flexibility and mobility . My posture has improved. More equipped to deal with challenges both physical and mental. Better mental clarity. Better sleep Lower anxiety levels, lower frequency, and impact of depression. My self-image and how I treat myself has improved. More and better dreams. Better connection with my body. An increase in emotion, love, and compassion toward my family and the world around me.

More thoughts on my care.

I believe that GWWC is not a replacement for classical medicine, but it has tremendous value alongside it. As an example, I am in therapy, and it has helped, but I believe the care I have received here has also helped. A misconception some people have had(indicated by the lower reviews) is that this is a traditional chiropractic clinic. It is not. In my own research and the experiences of my family and friends, most chiropractic clinics offer short-term relaxation and relief but not long-term or consistent improvements. Whereas at GWWC you may not always sense immediate changes. Think physical therapy; You don't go to one physical therapy appointment and expect to be fixed. Though if you show up consistently you will see change. Another thing I would like to mention is that the oftentimes free classes offer so much valuable information. I still feel I have a very long way to go both with my care here, as well as in my life. Ultimately I am so grateful for what spinal network care and SRI has done for me...

If you can justify spending/investing a reasonable chunk of money on fixing your house or car then you shouldnt have to think twice about investing a fraction of that into your physical body. Healing is a process, it's not a drive through window you just get to check in and out of. It's a journey and Dr. Dawn Sea Kahrs is the perfect person to lead you. I have experienced medical traumas in my life so I have been skeptical and avoidant as opposed to seeking help when it comes to physical pain but after my general practitioner urged me to check out Graceful Waves for some persistent and worsening hip pain I decided to make the call and go in for a consultation. I entered the wellness center with my pain at a consistent/average level 7 (with 10 being the worst). After my first 20 minute session with Dawn I went home, prepared dinner, went to bed and it wasnt until the middle of the night when I realized that 99% of my pain was gone! After nearly 7 months of deep horrible pain that kept me up all night and bothered me all day I was almost pain free after just one session. That is when I knew that Graceful Waves Wellness Center was the place for me. I will continue treatments with Dawn for the next few months. Now after 5 sessions I feel better than ever. I am 33 years old and I finally feel like myself again. It's been a while but I knew she was in there! Don't feel defeated by your pain like I did for too long! Surrender and trust the gifts of experts like Dr....
