When Missy first shared Stone Medicine with me I was very intrigued... I've always been drawn to crystals and have recently started learning about meridians in energy medicine, so although I had never heard of this before, it made sense to me. She is so amazing at not only explaining what Stone Medicine is, but her care and attention in leading me through the entire process was stellar. When she was reviewing the various areas of focus available, I knew exactly which one I felt drawn to work on. There were 3 sessions in total, and each was treated with such care and utmost respect. I wasn't sure what to expect as we went through the process, but what I felt was unlike anything I've experienced before. From physical releases to emotional releases to energetic releases, I have shifted so much over the last month and continue unfolding and leaning into my new energy field. Grateful for this experience doesn't begin to describe the emotions I have for this modality and for Missy! I have enjoyed her massage therapy and reiki for a while now and this is such a beautiful extension, truly tying in the emotional aspects for complete transformation. I highly encourage you to give it a go and trust the process... because you are in amazing hands. Thank you so much Missy for sharing your gifts! - CM, Mt. Juliet, TN
I'm so glad Stone Medicine sessions can be done long distance! I'm about 800 miles away from Missy now, but the energy came through just as strong as the times I was with Missy in person before I moved back to NY. The shifts I've experienced during and after each session were subtle, but deep at the same time. It's a really interesting feeling to be in a stressfull situation and realize that it's not effecting you like it normally would, and things that used to push certain buttons don't have any impact. It's even more interesting to watch the healing ripple out to my elders and see a subtle change in their reactions as well. Its a hard thing to describe, but I'm so glad I had the chance to experience Stone Medicine, and I can't wait to see what happens with the next meridian! - JK, New York
I was unfamiliar with stone medicine therapy prior to my introduction through Missy. I was immediately intrigued by the way Missy explained it - that it heals traumas that affect your DNA and addresses underlying causes of things that don’t seem to heal. Stone therapy is unlike anything I had tried previously, in that it engages the emotional, mental, physical, and metaphysical realms all at once. Missy was a thoughtful and intuitive guide, and was a non-judgmental and caring listener when assisting me through my therapy. I felt comfortable opening up to her during the process. Simply going through the steps to assess which meridian to treat was therapeutic in itself. I gained an understanding of patterns recurring in my decisions, habits, and thoughts. After seeing my life as a whole, I could then actively decide what I wanted to change. During the table sessions, I was able to meditate to deeper levels than ever before, which I felt in mind, body, and spirit. I felt physical effects from the treatments that solidified my knowledge that the therapy took me on a journey and changed me. I saw improvements in chronic conditions, and new patterns emerge from my daily thoughts and habits. I began to have hope and interest in things that I had formerly pushed aside. I started to have more self-compassion and was able to stop my thoughts from creating a negative spiral when upset. The universe pointed me in the direction of stone medicine. If the universe offers this same interest to you, I recommend that you listen to your intuition and try it. It requires a leap of faith, but the reward is deep and profound. I hypothesize that each person’s experience will be unique, like our souls. See where it takes you. You may be surprised by the way you feel or act afterwards. I’m thankful for my experience and remind myself of what I learned when I suffer a difficult day. I still feel that I have more healing to accomplish in order for my soul to truly express itself, and hope to continue my journey with Missy as my guide. - AM, Nashville, TN
I am ever so grateful to know Missy Travis at Mindful Nourishment 4U, who has been such a blessing and her special talents including using stone-gem-crystal healing and more. I must say that it has been a very interesting journey and I am still monitoring the subtle changes in my energy and the healing which is taking place within me – and am learning as I go. I noticed feeling spiritually lighter, freer, clear minded, and more energized, especially because the sessions may also have contributed to better sleep and am waking up much more rested. The stone and crystal healing sessions have been a very positive experience for me, from what I can tell. I am looking forward to undergoing more of it all soon. In a world where there is so much hectic, stress, anxiety, fear from the unknown, it can be a very beneficial tool to help people to become more grounded, balanced and calm, which in turn can facilitate finding a better way for one to navigate life’s ever so wild waves. Thankful! - DK, Franklin, TN
Before our first session, Missy asked me to write down everything significant that ever happened to me. As we reviewed this together, we could both clearly see a pattern emerging: Me, over many years, being consistently abandoned or rejected, by men. Missy chose specific stones to help with abandonment issues and placed them on my acupressure points. Lying on her table, I felt peaceful and curious, but the real magic happened after that. Stone Medicine helped me recall forgotten memories that provided inspiration for change. It also made me aware of the depth of Missy’s talent. She is prepared for whatever may happen both on (and off) her table. She is extremely intuitive and an excellent guide for those seeking healing. A stone medicine session was exactly what I needed to increase my awareness and experience some clarifying life changing moments. - LW, Nashville, TN

Sometimes our bodies literally scream at us for help......I had been experiencing pain in my teeth, neck, back and shoulders and wanted a therapist who could relieve TMJ issues. Missy Travis was the perfect person to help me. She used a combination of deep tissue massage, Reiki and essential oils to guide and move the pain out of my body. The only word to describe the session is: "WOW". The pressure was perfect...and I felt so cared for, protected and nurtured. I LOVED the experience! LW - Nashville, TN

Very intuitive relaxing and deep work. Missy has a gift for assisting the client with individual changing needs. With a wide variety of modalities to pick from she is efficient and beyond talented. SW - Nashville, TN
Having a muscle and joint history, it's hard to find someone who will listen to MY concerns instead of doing what THEY feel is right. This massage therapist listened to my concerns and treated me with utmost care and professionalism. Every massage is exactly what I need. My body and mind thanks you! JS - Murfreesboro, TN
I love Missy's massages! I had several 60 minute deep tissue and Swedish massages. Missy has really strong hands but not too strong. She also spends a decent amount of time massaging your scalp which is a personal favorite of mine that I find so many massage therapists skimp out on. I've felt AMAZING after. It was the best massage I ever had. And for the prices, this will become a regular occurrence! I've had massages all over the world, but this place has hands down, the best quality therapist you can get. I would definitely recommend Missy! PM - Germany
Missy is so compassionate and so knowledgeable. I am so much better. I believe I will be able to sleep tonight. Missy was so kind to allow me to have an appointment at such short notice. She could hear the pain I was experiencing in my voice. Thank you! LO - Nashville, TN
I'm not even sure how to accurately convey my love for Missy and the work she does. She is a sweet, sweet soul and does AMAZING massage and healing work! I have been to A LOT of massage therapists over the years and Missy is 100% without a doubt the best! I've told her many times that when I win the lottery I'm stealing her away from all of you and hiring her as my on staff massage therapist. Maybe if you're nice to me I'll still let her work with you! But seriously, folks, she's the best. I received a gift card for a massage, so I went to someone else, and when I saw her the next time I told her she's spoiled me so much that I compare everyone to her now! If you do anything with the rest of your life, you should put an appointment with Missy at the top of your list! DL - Nashville, TN
Yes, you can get a massage from anybody but, a massage from Missy is a soul massage. AH - Nashville, TN
