Restorative Support with Sara McRae
If you’ve tried multiple approaches and still aren’t seeing lasting change, there may be a missing piece in how your system integrates change.
This is a common pattern in Long COVID and complex conditions, where the system hasn’t been able to fully recover or stabilize.
This work is designed for people experiencing ongoing, complex or chronic symptoms—especially when progress has plateaued or nothing seems to hold.
Who This Is For:
You do not need a Long COVID diagnosis to benefit from this work.
Many clients come in with complex, overlapping symptoms that have not responded to other approaches.
Many people who come in feel like they’ve lost a sense of themselves. That’s often part of what begins to return.
This work may be a good fit if you are experiencing:
-
Low motivation, energy, or drive
-
Lingering symptoms after COVID-19
-
Chronic fatigue or post-exertional crashes
-
Trauma-related symptoms (including patterns often labeled as PTSD)
-
Pain or symptoms more noticeable on one side of the body
-
Brain fog or cognitive changes
-
Nervous system dysregulation (wired/tired, anxiety, shutdown)
-
Dizziness, heart rate irregularities, or POTS-like symptoms
-
Sleep disruption
-
Emotional flatness, loss of joy
-
Inconsistent or unpredictable symptom patterns
-
Symptoms that improve temporarily but don’t hold
-
A sense that your body is “stuck” or not integrating change
HOW IT WORKS
A Different Approach
Symptoms are not treated as isolated problems to fix.
They are understood as expressions of how the system is functioning as a whole.
In many complex cases, the body is operating in a chronic stress or threat state where positive inputs—treatment, rest, nutrition, even progress—do not fully land or integrate.
The focus of this work is to support the system in shifting out of that state so that change can begin to hold.
This work draws from Touch For Health and my ongoing development of the HigherCx Restorative Facilitation approach, with a focus on complex and non-resolving cases. It is particularly relevant for people who have tried multiple approaches and are still not seeing lasting results.
HigherCx Restorative Facilitation
is a modality that assists participants in noticing and shifting stuck patterns in the nervous/energetic system. Using muscle testing, movement, and awareness, it supports coherence, energetic balance, and increased capacity for integration.
Touch For Health Energy Kinesiology
involves simple yet powerful stress management techniques and a holistic process to align you with your goals, making even the most challenging aspirations feel within reach! Many people notice meaningful shifts in a short period - such as increased clarity, ease in movement, or renewed motivation as sessions support alignment between body, mind, and energy.

“Sara McRae cured my Long Covid with Touch for Heath methods in May of 2024. I have been intrigued and fascinated by the "magic" of the methodology and Sara's warmth, fun-loving nature and curiosity. I have taken Levels 1 and 2 to begin to understand the science and practice some of the techniques that changed my life and are helping to heal so many others.”

Long COVID Work & Ongoing Findings
This approach has been applied in ongoing work with individuals experiencing Long COVID and other complex conditions.
Across cases, a consistent pattern has emerged.
When foundational stress states are addressed in the right order, clients often report meaningful shifts such as:
-
Improved energy and stamina
-
Clearer thinking
-
Greater emotional range and resilience
-
Improved tolerance for movement and activity
-
A return of motivation, drive, and sense of self
I continue to collect data to better understand these patterns and outcomes over time.
How We Work Together
Sessions use a combination of:
-
Client-centered muscle monitoring
-
Movement and positional work
-
Nervous system and stress-state balancing
-
Awareness-based integration
Each session follows a specific order guided by your system, allowing us to work with what is most relevant and ready to change.
Optional Case Study Participation
Clients are welcome—but not required—to participate in ongoing case study work.
If you are interested, you can indicate this when booking your appointment or during our first session. Participation may include brief check-ins or feedback after sessions.
What to Expect
-
Sessions are individualized and client-led
-
This is a non-diagnostic, educational approach
-
Most clients begin with a series of 3 sessions
-
Sessions are spaced to allow for integration
This work requires a willingness to become more aware of your system, your state, and how stress is being processed.
