Helping heal the body, mind, and spirit

To truly begin the process of healing, one must address not only the body, but also the mind and spirit. It is that valuable combination that Fallbrook-based holistic practitioner and massage therapist Craig Lozzi offers to his patients.

“I try to provide insight to my patients; many people coming in to get massage therapy have other issues and they want something more for their health,” explained Lozzi, who has had a very strong practice in Fallbrook for many years.

Stress is a known culprit for creating tight muscles, chronic pain, and compromising the body’s function. And stresses operate at different levels in the consciousness. “Some stresses a person is under are obvious, some are less obvious; and then we have so many environmental stresses,” he said.

One of Lozzi’s greatest strengths is studying a body’s energy.

“Tension is easy to palpate,” said Lozzi. “I focus on the electromagnetic energy flow of the body and take pulses to see if there is an imbalance from the head to the feet.”

Techniques used by Lozzi vary in style. “We are seeing more recognition of the subtle techniques – they are gaining credibility and expanding into modalities,” he said.

Treating each patient as the individual they are, Lozzi said one of the things he does is try to provide in-depth information to them about their particular situation. After a patient comes in for a treatment, he does further research and provides educational information to them, in addition to some handouts he has developed.

“I see my role shifting more and more into education,” he said.

At Transcendent Touch, Lozzi offers therapeutic massage, deep tissue massage, hot stone massage, pain and injury rehabilitation, and reflexology in addition to his insights. A new addition is the option of having spiritual poetry recited during a treatment.

“I have about 50 poems in my memory bank and sometimes I will tell a patient that a certain poem comes to mind about their situation if they wish to hear it,” he said.

Another benefit Lozzi can offer his patients is his three-year spiritual training in affirmative prayer, which can prove very beneficial in overall healing. “There is a growing need for that in patients,” said Lozzi.

Learning breathing techniques can also aid in controlling stress. “I can do breath work with my patients to help them deal with emotional challenges they are facing,” he noted. Lozzi is an individual who has dedicated his life to health and wellbeing. “I also have a network of excellent referrals regarding exercise, nutrition, and managing stress that I gladly share with my patients.”

An ongoing project Lozzi is working on is remodeling his home and property in sustainable green methods in order to hopefully move his practice there, offer culinary classes involving vegetarian cuisine, have an educational garden, host intimate concerts, and poetry readings, and more.

“My house will be designed to reflect the environment,” he said. “It will be the first home in the U.S. to feature this type of design.”
