Pangasinan Province on the Philippine Island of Luzon has long been associated with mysterious, metaphysical phenomena and alternative healing, as practiced by the indigenous Filipinos. This book explores psychic surgery, faith healing, and Spiritism from the historical perspective as well as the author s personal experience.... provides an in-depth look at the interplay between the world of physical reality and the spiritual world. Although quantum physicists are getting closer and closer to a scientific explanation for phenomena such as psychic surgery, and more and more people are talking about energy medicine, it is likely this thought-provoking book will raise as many questions as it answers.

Review
Every once in a while you read a book that touches your soul, engages your heart and pushes your mind to look at the world in a new way. Jessica Bryan's Psychic Surgery & Faith Healing is a moving and detailed account of her life-changing experiences as a patient of psychic surgery and later, as a student and practitioner of the art of magnetic healing. Bryan travels to the Philippines, a renowned center for faith healers, where her doubts are melted by the intense tropical heat and the generous love of a local family of healers who adopts her as one of their own. Bryan's flowing and absorbing narrative invites the reader to live her journey and return transformed. --New Connexion Magazine-Vicky Thompson
