Greg Wieting

If you’re reading this, you are either a bit skeptic as I was (can energy healing and such really work??) or interested but want to know if Greg is the right person. YES and YES! I wanted to leave a thorough review, so there’s a summary, and a longer one if you are interested.
The nutshell:
I had an injury that 2 months in was not healing, and incredibly painful at times. Two sessions of body talk, and I was better than new. I couldn’t explain it, but it worked. So what’s kept me going back? After 2 or 3 sessions, I went from taking prescription migraine meds 2x/​week to no migraines for months. I got off allergy meds as well, and had intensional problems heal. Most important, Greg has used a holistic approach of both mental and physical wellness together to keep me healing in both areas… which I didn’t even realize how interconnected they were. He is incredibly caring, compassionate, and knows his shit. I can’t explain how Body Talk works, but it does (and Greg can explain :). You’d be crazier to NOT try it! Whatever is going on in your life, it can help you.
In much more detail:
I first came to Greg out of desperation for an injury of my quad, hip flexor, and lower back that wouldn’t heal. It left me limping in pain on and off for nearly 2 months, until I was on the floor in tears. I’ll be honest, after my first session, I thought ‘That’s it? Did anything just happen?’, like I was expecting a magical feeling or something. I walked away feeling a little disappointed, afraid that nothing changed. I couldn’t be more wrong. Just two sessions of Body Talk and within days I was back to walking with only a little soreness. By the end of the week I realized midway of trying to catch a bus that I was *running*. As if I had never been injured. I couldn’t believe it, but I couldn’t deny it either.
I also noticed the strangest things as I healed. At a long dance rehearsal my body was starting to become sore everywhere… except the injury spot. There I felt like I had a protective bubble of energy keeping me safe. Another day I went to move my leg in a way that was previously very painful and found what I can only describe as energy impulses shooting down the injury spot. They didn’t hurt, just felt neutral or protecting. I can’t explain it, but who needs to when it works!
Healing my injury was number one on my mind when I first went to Greg, but it’s everything else he has helped me with that keeps me going. I didn’t realize how many other ailments I had that had just become my ‘normal’ until he started working with me. For instance, he worked on my body and hydration. After taking prescription medicine up to twice a week for migraines, I haven’t had one for months. The «pretty bad allergies» I casually mentioned… now gone. No more allergy meds every day. And these are just a few of the things we have worked with!
All of this is great, but what I love the most is how Greg really incorporates both mental and physical health together. There are so many things I struggle with that manifest physically into my body, including depression and anxiety. Through Body Talk he has identified many of these, without me even mentioning them initially, and helped me work through them. It’s not just the physical manifestations that have been working themselves out but also the ingrained thought patterns and habits. He has shared with me wonderful pieces of writing from both him and others that also help me on a full healing journey and wellness path. He is incredibly caring, easy to open up to, and has quite literally changed my life for the better! Do not hesitate for a second to spend the time, money, or energy to take your wellness back into your hands through his work. Thank you, Greg!

Having heard very little about BodyTalk before meeting Greg, I didn’t know what to expect. But I’m always open to experiencing new healing modalities, and I must say I was very impressed. The BodyTalk system is hard to describe if you haven’t experienced it. It is a beautiful and subtle healing that helps reestablish communication within your own body and allow it to heal itself! I’m a big believer in the wisdom that our bodies contain, and fully embrace any healing that helps us tune into this more strongly. And BodyTalk does just this, in such an elegant way. I left there feeling very relaxed, and experiencing some gentle physical sensations of release and relaxation is several areas that Greg worked on specifically. Such a gentle and elegant form of healing. I can’t say enough good things about the experience. I look forward to seeing him again soon! Highly recommended!

There’s nothing like the sensation of getting into a pose and it FEELS right. For me to achieve this sense of gratification, I need to be assisted — not simply adjusted by the instructor. After nearly two decades of yoga, I’ve learned there is a big difference between hands-​on adjustments and assists. As a fitness professional that specializes in corrective exercise, I simply like coaching and always gravitate towards more technical instructors. Ultimately, I don’t want to be instructor-​dependent in my practice. I want to foster a deeper connection with my body and learn how to work with it. I’m able to achieve this and more with Greg Wieting.
If you’re looking to go deeper in your practice, learn proper alignment, experience deeper expression of postures with the help of skillful guidance and most importantly, by receiving human connection, you will love Greg. His highly developed observation skills, awareness of body mechanics and movement, and strong communication skills allow him to assist students in a way that’s completely personalized — even in a group setting. Greg challenges you to be in your body, to accommodate and make space where needed, to even stumble and make mistakes. He creates a unqiue space for exploration and play with your practice. I highly recommend his classes!

I came to Greg with no prior exposure to BodyTalk or Reiki, open to learning (but, if I’m honest, also ready to be skeptical if anything felt wrong or off-​putting).
I had nothing to fear: Greg is an innately gifted and dedicated healer. I’ve had about 10 sessions with him, and always leave feeling seen and heard. (And that’s not always been the case for me with other healing practitioners).
As an artist, BodyTalk and Reiki with Greg help me release fears and blocks that are holding me back from producing and sharing my work. I’m so grateful for the growth I’ve experienced these past few months. Thank you, Greg!
Plus: Ascend Body (the studio that Greg’s office is in) is a gorgeous space with succulents, exposed brick and lots of natural light.

Working with Greg helped me gain clarity and got me started on the journey I had been called to take for years, but could never get the courage with which to engage. Over the sessions he provided me I noticed pathways start to open up, my decisiveness increase, and my certainty that the procrastination and indecision I suffered from just was not tolerable any more. I truly feel that I would not have been able to step forward into my new pathway as a full-​time photographer and explorer without Greg’s capable and compassionate assistance.

This review is from my VERY skeptical husband, he doesn’t own a computer or cell phone I post for him…
From Dan:
Greg diminished my level 9 pain due to pinched nerves in disks 4 and 5 within 2 visits. I don’t claim to understand how the treatment works, but I know it is effective.
From me:
My husband went from unable to walk stand or sit, to sleeping peacefully in two sessions, and immediately was able to stop the morphine drugs the Doc gave him for the pain. Thanks, isn’t enough for what Greg has done for us!

A yoga class with Greg is an amazing experience. I’ve been practicing with him for many years and always have a deep yoga and meditation peacefulness that comes with his knowledge, presence, and teaching experience. Greg exudes confidance and knowldege as well as he always understands what I need. Because is is a Reiki master, his adjustments carry extra energy. He is always kind and gentle and full of heartfelt intensity. I’ve also received BodyTalk and Reiki sessions from him and find peace and healing from these. Greg is wise and perceptive — being in his presence is extraordinary.

Greg is an experience that I continue to choose. He has provided me comfort when I felt vulnerable and has gently pushed me to my edges in conversation, receiving both Reiki and Body Talk from him, and as a student of his teaching in Yoga. I fully trust Greg and recommend his services. I encourage anyone interested in some of the modalities he offers to meet him and feel into the connection. In various sessions he has helped me to better connect to myself and open myself toward shaky new beginnings in my life. As for yoga, it is nice to be in his presence and share the bliss he brings to the practice and his classes.

I am profoundly grateful for my mentor Greg Wieting, as he has helped me draw on the innate wisdom I have, as do we all! Now in remission from liver cancer since last October, my 23-​year chronic HIV infection is now presenting me with a new cancer challenge, and I am in SUCH a better place through Reiki, meditation, the BodyTalk Holistic system and yoga! I met Greg 2 years ago through a teacher at the yoga studio I manage, and with Reiki and Bodytalk my TCell count has risen, and I have been able to wean off my depression/​anti-​anxiety meds completely! The beauty is these systems are not symptomatic «quick fixes,» rather lifelong practices I am able to call upon with his help as a conduit whenever/​wherever I am emotionally, spiritually, and physically! He also has the ability to marry his great sense of humor with his knowledge and experience for a wonderful bedside manner… I recommend him without reservation and with deep gratitude.

Greg works at Ascend Body, a studio that I created for amazing, highly qualified, like minded practitioners… and he is just that. I’ve been to see 100’s of different practitioners who do healing work and I must say that Greg has the right touch. My experience of Bodytalk has been profound and I feel it is truly contributing to my overall healing process. The work is deep and leaves me feeling aligned, integrated and full of energy. Thanks Greg, for being amazing!

Greg is a genuinely caring and thoughtful healer. He truly cares about each of his clients and you can feel it when he is performing reiki and bodytalk. I have had over 10 sessions with Greg and I am much the lighter and freer because of these sessions. I highly recommend Greg — he is thoughtful, caring and patient.

I saw Greg initially for yoga instruction. I had been to a few classes over the years but it never stuck. However, I have a chronically bad neck and my chiropractor recommended I try sticking to yoga. I thought of Greg sort of as a yoga personal trainer initially. He is a warm, friendly easy-​to-​be-​with person, and a very patient (yet persistent) teacher. I lost my «fear» of yoga and now practice on my own. It’s really changed how I view and feel about my body. My headaches have gone way down and I feel taller.
I occasionally see Greg for Bodytalk, which is kind of like Reiki but works with balancing different systems of the body. I also feel refreshed after each session, like I had a «tune up.» I can feel my energy level and mood improve for a few days after each session. Seriously, I highly recommend this man!

I had my first session with Greg out of curiosity about how Body-​Talk and Reiki work. It was such a powerful experience with parts of my body releasing tension that I was not even aware was there and a big shift in my overall energy that I decided to commit to bi-​weekly sessions. It’s been two years since and the effect has been dramatic. Not only has my physical health never been better, I have also experienced big emotional shifts that have allowed me major breakthroughs in my relationships. I now feel more connected to myself and others than ever before and more open and appreciative of all the surprises life gives us as it unfolds.

Greg is an amazing healer. He has helped me work through emotional trauma with grace, skill, and love. I notice that my digestion has improved since seeing Greg. In addition, my ability to breathe has also gotten better. I always leave a session with Greg feeling revitalized.
