Russell Fox

Certified SHEN Practitioner
Certified SHEN Instructor

Sedona, Arizona

Russ Fox actually leads two professional lives, as a conductor in the world of classical music, and as an active SHEN Therapist and Instructor. His 30+ years in Los Angeles has produced musical credits which include the Hollywood Bowl, the L.A. Music Center, two movie soundtracks, and concert tours throughout North America, New Zealand and Australia.

    "I began my SHEN career in 1989 having first worked for years practicing therapeutic massage, Reike and Polarity Therapy. I've always felt particularly drawn to energy-based practices, or what is now more appropriately called 'Biofield Therapeutics.' This interest in alternative/complementary health practices was bought on by my own congenital back problems which needed to be addressed if I was to effectively conduct demanding rehearsals and concerts. One can only be as effective as one's physical agility and ability to communicate will allow. Both of these are severely diminished by any degree of pain, either physical or emotional.

    "Neither Reiki nor Polarity were ever as effective with my clients as I had hoped. Likewise, neither made complete sense to my Western mind and desire to know what was actually going on. In 1989 I came across Richard Pavek's original " Handbook of SHEN." Finally someone had fully explained the actual working nuts and bolts of this previously mysterious interplay between the physical and the energetic. Realizing that a person's emotions are intimately related to this therapeutic dance was more than a mere added benefit - it has become the key to unlocking the deeper answers to who we are, why we do what we do, and what it is that keeps us from feeling complete and fulfilled in our careers and relationships."

Organizing SHEN training workshops for the SHEN Therapy Institute as early as 1990, Russ has had an active SHEN practice ever since. He and his wife relocated to Sedona in early 2010
