Hi, and welcome to my website! My name is Amanda Messenger and I want to share my health story with you.
Health is something I was forced to recognize as precious at a very young age. At 8 I began to be very ill, and continued to deteriorate until I was bedridden at age 10. With no known explanations or cures, I felt life was a waste for me because I could do nothing with it. I continued to be very ill and unable to fully participate in "regular life" until 2005 when I attended a clinic run by medical personnel using naturopathy for healing. After two weeks I was healed. I have been healthy since.
Armed with the knowledge of "the body is an amazing healing machine and can heal itself as long as it has what is needed" I embarked to find my nitch to help people allow themselves to heal. I am a licensed massage therapist, I have knowledge in essential oils, emotional clearing, and life experience of chronic illness to further enable the healing of my clients.
The one thing I really felt lacking in was a knowledge in nutrition. I am seeking that out right now, and I was thrilled to find Xocai. A tasty, affordable, proven way to recieve nutrients was a thrilling find. I hope to share this aid to the body as effectively as I have the others.
After eating the chocolate for two months, I was a little disappointed because I hadn't noticed anything amazingly different about myself. Then I realized one morning as I walked outside that I was surprised it was snowing! I have had four major knee surgeries (two each knee) and I have been able to feel a storm three days out my whole life because of the pain. After that realization, I decided to take my knees out for a drive. I now am running for exercise for the first time in my life, and planning on running my first marathon this year. I also no longer crave sugar (which used to be my entire diet.) and "candy chocolate" just doesn't do anything for me anymore.
I currently live in Utah with my husband Mark, who is my best friend, and my 16 year old nephew Jayme. Mark is an airline pilot and Jayme is a sophomore who is a sports fanatic. When I am not massaging, I love to sew, sing, play the guitar, and dance. I have a degree in sculpting, and I am a professional actress. (Though not big enough to be in Hollywood.) I love being active but I can't claim any skill in sports!
Also- if you are a skeptic, which most are, keep an eye out for updates here- my mom is putting Xocai to the test! She is getting a complete bloodwork work up, and then going on the chocolate for two months to see what difference it makes for her. I will keep her progress and the finished results on my website, or have a link to it. FIRST UPDATE- She has officially recorded her beginning numbers with cholesterol, blood pressure, weight, etc.! Her doc said he likes 3 months better than two, so her experiment will last an additional month. Her doc is interested to see what happens! (Me too!) I'll let you know when I know!
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me a bit. I know internet sites such as this don't always portray the person as they hope to be, so I sincerely hope that you have caught a glimpse of the person I am. If you receive nothing else from my site I hope you have gained a small understanding that you are important- That I, someone whom you may never meet- cares about your health and happiness. I'm not in this business for money- I'm in it to change lives in a practical, life-long manner. Please let me know if I can help you find a healthier you. I wish you happiness in all that you seek!
