Matrix Repatterning Now on the East Coast

In his book The Brain’s Way of Healing, Dr. Norman Doidge refers to Matrix Repatterning as an important “first intervention” in the treatment of concussion and traumatic brain injury. As the only Certified Matrix Repatterning practitioner in the mid-Atlantic region, Dr. Clare Larkin describes Matrix Repatterning as a revolutionary form of healing. “When we experience an injury, the energy transferred to the body from that injury gets absorbed in the bones and other deep tissues. This creates bio-electric changes in these tissues and we wind up many superficial symptoms that don’t get resolved with most therapies because the injury is deeper. Matrix Repatterning is a gentle, hands-on approach to locating these deep injuries and releasing the trapped energy, freeing the body of its chronic symptoms.”

Dr. Larkin has seen remarkable success in treating both acute and chronic conditions. “People travel from all over the country to experience Matrix Repatterning because it works. I am confident that Matrix Repatterning can help most people—even those who have ‘tried everything’ have a better quality of life. Until recently, people from this region of the country had to get on a plane to receive this revolutionary therapy. Now, they have Matrix Repatterning in their own backyard.”

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
