Mary Jane Mack Tells Her Story
As I look back on my career, I can see how everything has led me to where I am today—what an exciting journey!
My background is in nursing; I am a registered nurse and have worked in Labor & Delivery,
Surgical Recovery, and Critical Care. My work is now in Clinical Nutrition.
Another passion of mine are horses, which I have enjoyed most of my life. What I didn’t know
was that my horses were destined to take me into my future. After doing all the traditional
veterinarian treatments for them, such as immunizations and chemical de-worming, they
did not become the athletes I had hoped for.
After beginning to ride with others, I was introduced to alternative veterinary medicine and seminars. During the summer of 1991 I was referred to a vet who practiced Contact Reflex Analysis™ (CRA) as well as chiropractic. What an eye-opener it was! He adjusted my horses and put them on specific, clinical nutrition protocols. Within 12 weeks they were dramatically better, continued to improve, and soon became accomplished athletes.
Because of these remarkable results, I found a CRA™ practitioner for myself. She suggested that I register for a CRA™ Seminar to be presented by Dr. Dick Versendaal, the charismatic originator and developer of CRA™, in Portland, Oregon in October. I attended the seminar and can still remember that day, as if it were yesterday. The healthcare information Dr. Versendaal presented just blew me away. It was practical and to the point about how to evaluate and normalize the imbalances of the body. That day I heard a soft whisper telling me that this is what I had been searching for that would change my life.
I soon began attending CRA™ seminars around the country on a regular basis. Having purchased every seminar video, I immersed myself in learning everything I could about CRA™. Six months later in 1992, I opened a full-time CRA™ practice in Issaquah, Washington. As I grew in the knowledge and skill of CRA™, my practice grew accordingly. In 1996, I became a CRA™ Instructor and taught CRA™ Workshops throughout the USA.
In 1998, I met Dennis Reis, a nationally recognized horseman who teaches natural horsemanship at his ranch in Penngrove, California. By attending seminars and riding with Dennis, my horsemanship developed in a natural, non-invasive way—an empowering and spiritual experience for me. Dennis and his horses soon became clients of mine.
I have attended countless CRA™ Seminars and worked closely with Dr. Versendaal since 1991. CRA™ is my passion and gift. It has been remarkably rewarding for me to help people with their wellness journey, and to make such a difference in their lives physically emotionally and spiritually.
