Practioner:
Bibianne Galuzny RN, BSN, MSN, ICP
Bibianne has worked for over 28 years in the nursing field as a ICU nurse, cardiac rehabilitation nurse, nursing instructor, home healthcare nurse and caregiver. She is skilled at educating and empathizing with her patients and assisting them with advocacy and quality care. Bibianne and her husband Doug have been involved in several charity outreach and faith based programs along with their three beautiful daughters. Through her work as a clinical nursing instructor for nearly 15 years, she has witnessed first hand the lasting effects of trauma, stress and chronic pain. When her oldest daughter started exhibiting signs of these in her own health, the family discovered the benefits of IASIS MCN and Bibianne decided to become an IASIS provider to help more people find answers to hopelessness, sadness, lack of control, or feeling overwhelmed in their lives.
While traditionally trained as a medical professional, Bibianne also understands that modern medical care doesn’t only involve medications and hospitals, rather and often, alternative forms of treatment can be very effective, in conjunction with traditional medicine and frequently have fewer side effects.
What to expect during treatment sessions:
Treatment provider
Bibianne is a certified IASIS MCN provider (ICP) by completing extensive training through the IASIS MCN practitioner program.
Applying the device
Small areas of your head and neck will be cleansed and prepared with conductive paste. Five small, lightweight electrodes will be placed on specific, prepared sites of your head/neck. Throughout the treatment, some of the electrodes will be moved to other sites around your head.
Length of session:
You can expect your initial visit to take 60-90 minutes as you discuss your history and plan with the certified provider. Each session thereafter will be 30-45 minutes in length from start to finish.
Response to treatment:
During your treatment, you will likely not feel anything from the electrodes. Within 24 to 48 hours after treatment, you will be asked to fill out an observation sheet where you can report symptoms of reactivity that could include feeling “wired”, tired, spacey, headache, or temporary increase of symptoms. It is important to remember a couple of things if you experience reactivity following a treatment. First, these symptoms are temporary and will likely not last longer than 48 hours. Second, reactivity to a treatment only means that the treatment is working! We like to say that with every reaction, there is a positive response to go with it.
Stay the course:
Initially you could be asked to come in two to three times a week for treatments. As your brain begins to regulate and you experience relief from symptoms for longer periods of time between treatments, your sessions will be spaced out more. Our main objective is to bring you to the leading edge of enduring and sustainable relief from your symptoms, and we will work hard to accomplish that within a reasonable amount of sessions (typically 12-20 sessions).
