See it for yourself

Talk therapy reaches the mind. Splankna reaches the root.

Hurt leaves its mark on the whole person: spirit, soul and body. In a Splankna session, prayer leads, gentle muscle testing finds where the pain is stored, and the root is brought to Jesus for healing.

Sarah J. Thiessen, LMFT, LPC

Founder Β· developed Splankna in her counseling practice in 1997

Every session is submitted to Jesus as Lord. Muscle testing is a helpful indicator, never a source of truth, and prayer leads every step. Read our Statement of Faith
