Meet the doctor
A path of healing from within to without.
Dr. Vanessa Youness’ healing journey—from a multiple sclerosis diagnosis with a grim prognosis received 17 years ago—is part of this pineal gland decalcification therapy. A unique therapy about deepening, discipline, transformation, and the fight to keep going when you’re told there is no hope left.
Dark Room Therapy stems from a real experience of recovery and deep reconnection with one’s own body and mind, and is for all those seeking hope, balance, and new perspectives in the face of physical or emotional challenges—becoming a space dedicated to those who seek clarity and a different perspective on the healing process, including in the case of autoimmune diseases.
Dr. Vanessa Youness
Doctor, author, and founder of YOUness WELLness Clinic & Retreat
“Healing is a personal choice. An awareness of the psychosomatic message that can accompany every affliction.
An opportunity to journey into the depths of your own being — if this path is chosen.
The journey is not easy. It is not comfortable. Just as surgery isn’t. But it may be necessary.
A deep psychosomatic therapy is like an intervention on the soul, the heart, and on the “mind that lies to us” — the patterns that limit us.
Pineal gland decalcification through Dark Room Therapy is one of the techniques through which this process can be supported.
Courage. It’s not for everyone.”
“You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)
