NMT Practioners
Jaala Diehl PDMT
Hi, I'm Jaala. How did I end up practicing NMT? You could say I grew up with a natural approach to healthcare. My Mom was a Reflexologist and that was the beginning of a holistic lifestyle for our family. When I chose my schooling in Muscle Therapy (1991) and then specialized in Pfimmer Deep Muscle Therapy (1992) that opened up exposure to many different forms of energetic medicine and I began searching for the resolution of my severe migraine headaches, chronic stomachaches and low energy. I found a doctor who used energetic medicine and we discovered multiple food allergies were a big cause of my problems. So, I began what I thought would be a life time of avoiding wheat and dairy products. I thought that was as good as it would get. Then I had a family of my own. Their health issues caused me to continue to look for a better solution and a friend told me about her "Energy Doctor". I had to see this for myself. Enters Dr. Lisa Rhodes and NMT. After regular treatments, I had a complete resolution of my migraines, I had energy for the first time (even with 2 small children) and complete elimination of my food allergies. Yes, after 15 years of avoiding wheat and dairy I can eat it with no problem! And the results with my husband and children were life changing as well. I had to learn this amazing technique and here I am! I've been working here at IHC since my complete training in April 2007 and I love it.

It was not that long ago that I was the Controller of a printing company. So how did I go from that to becoming an NMT Practioner? When I started dating my husband in 2006, I was introduced to a family that had some serious health issues but also takes their healthcare very seriously. They have spent their lives trying to listen to their bodies and find the healthiest options for healing and maintance.
I learned important lessons from them as I watched their health improve. First, it is too easy to ignore our bodies and not take care of ourselves. Also, there are ways that we can head towards optimal health using holistic/homeopatic means. And finally, I was reminded that our bodies are amazingly able to heal themselves should we provide it with what it needs.
They helped me to listen to my body and not feel that self care was selfish. At that time, I also stared coming to Dr. Rhodes for NMT treatments.
What amazing improvements I have personally seen. I have been able to overcome the adverse effects of an abusive relationship with all the emotional, deep inner turmoil issues that that includes.
I had ignored my body so long that I have also developed thyroid, adrenal, immune, and allergy issues. NMT and proper self care have improved all of these. (At this point, it became very clear that my career as a Controller was not what I was meant to do.) My goal in life then became turning my desire to help and care for others into a reality.
I entered Clayton College of Natural Health and am working toward my BS in Holistic Nutrition.
NMT was the next natural step for me because of my strong energetic connection to other people. so I have pursued training from Dr. Feinberg.
