I went to George for hypnosis before giving a presentation in my new job. My fear was that I…read morewasn't really familiar with the material and it would show, however, I didn't want to read 90 slides word by word. George programmed me so I felt that I've been doing these presentations every day for a long time and I am completely familiar with material and the people would just love me, my voice and my presence. The presentation was great! I partially improvised, partially read verbatim and I felt like it was my 1000th time. I think they were happy with me because when I saw them loosing interests, I engaged them right away by asking questions, some not related to work :) Basically, I wasn't nervous at all, instead I was really aware of the whole situation. I fully recommend George's services if you want quick and solid results. George, thanks so much for programming me!

Medical professional care addressed the symptoms with very little success and many unpleasant side effects. Finally one doctor said it was due to stress and anxiety so medication was given for those symptoms, results, better, but still with breakthrough episodes and again many side effects. In desperation I sought out George Guarino . By the second visit I discontinued all medication, and have never had another spike again. . I am still, after a year on no medication at all, feel wonder, and have no more fear of the consequences of high blood pressure. Mr. Guarino is forthright, puts you at ease and has changed my life. I would highly recommend him.

I met Gina many years ago while living in Saratoga Springs and I ended up receiving a few Reiki…read moresessions from her. They were such beautiful experiences! Fast forward several years, I learned that my purpose was to serve others in a different capacity from my former self and life so I traveled from Los Angeles back to Saratoga Springs to learn Reiki from her as she is a Master Reiki teacher. I would highly recommend anyone who needs help simply learning how to relax or learning how to heal from within or wishing to take on the passion of helping others through Reiki as she is truly an amazing and wonderful soul with a divine gift. Not to mention it is just a wonderful experience being within her presence as. through her caring, kind, and thoughtful approach! :) - Homer

Angella took the time to connect with us on a deep personal level to share her wealth of knowledge on child birth and relaxation/pain management techniques. She is very personable and easy to open up to. We now feel confident we have the ability to bring our baby into the world in the most beautiful way as nature intended. We would recommend taking this course, or any other one of Angella's courses, to anyone who is expecting a new baby.

He was quite snippy, and refused to answer any of my questions - even though their website invites people to call them with any questions. He repeatedly tried to get me to set up an appointment for their "free consultation". When I asked about their fees, if they accept insurance, etc, this guy just kept robotically repeating "All-your-questions-will-be-answered-at-the-free-consultation". I finally told him that this whole thing sounds pretty hokey to me, and I hung up.

I have smoked for over 40 years!! I have tried Chantex, Welbutrin, the patch, gum, cold turkey and…read morelozenges. I have tried everything possible and have only made it a few hours before the urge to smoke overwhelmed the common sense to quit. I knew about Hypnosis, and I wanted to try, but I wanted to make sure I was going to the right place. After doing a lot of research, I found Albany Hypnosis Center and was bless to meet Deborah Nettles. The experience from the first Zoom meeting and everyone after has been truly amazing. Our first meeting was via Zoom and surprising, Deborah was able to hypnotize me via Zoom!!!!! I asked for our next meeting to be in person and I arrived at her office and was so pleasantly surprised on how tailored everything was to my history, my personal perception of smoking and how it affected my life and my daily activities. Deborah Hypnotized me and I have not smoke since. We had two more follow up sessions and since the original Zoom meeting was so successful, I wanted the second and third sessions to be via zoom (because I have a very busy work schedule, like so many other people). I am still smoke free and I have not struggled with any withdraw. The only thing that I have had to remind myself of is that I no longer smoke! I sometimes find, I reach for my purse out of old habits and quickly realize that I don't smoke and then the whole thought of smoking is somehow dismissed from my mind. I have been out in public and find the smell of smokers actually bothers me. To say I can't believe I am saying all this is an understatement. I have smoked for over 40 years and NEVER thought I could possibly stop and here I am today, smoke free, and so very proud of myself. I actually don't feel like I was ever a smoker and I just can't figure out how three sessions with Deborah changed my entire life. People that have known me for most of my life truly thought that after so many years, that there was no way I could ever quit. And yet here I am...smoke free and truly not even missing it! I am forever grateful to Deborah for her commitment to fine tune her professional craft in order to help people overcome the impossible.

A total of six hours, three sessions and three hypnosis sessions. I have achieved more in these few months than I have in a lifetime. My life has literally been transformed. I am confident, successful, and have never been more at peace with who I am. His skills have helped me become the person I was always meant to be. As if by using a key, he opened a door to endless possibilities. I will be forever in his debt. He is kind, caring, humble and a wonderful human being. I could go on and on, in fact I could write a book, and he just might help me with that too!! Thank you Dr. John!​

They receives 4-hour Ketamine infusions once to twice per month at Albany Ketamine Infusions, and it is one of the few times that they get a break from their constant pain. Additionally, they are prescribed Ketamine troches for daily pain. Dr. Hansen is an excellent physician--knows his stuff, is friendly, has empathy, is willing to think outside the box, and yet is very professional. I can't say enough good things about him. Office staff is very nice and accommodating, and the facilities are clean and modern. My only complaint is that his one wheel chair needs new brakes.

I have suffered with major depression for the last 15 years. In September 2021 my pharmacist…read morerecommended I investigate ketamine infusion therapy as a possible treatment for my depression. I have been on numerous anti-depressant drugs over the last 15 years and at best they marginally produced a benefit. Most of the time I suffered with the side effects. I researched and found Albany ketamine infusions through a Google search. I reached out to them by phone and was very pleased with the warm and understanding conversation that ensued. At the end of the call I had been set up with an appointment within a few days and emailed some forms to fill. When I Arrived I was greeted by Dr. Hansen and his staff. I was surprised that Dr. Hansen himself spent over 45 minutes with me discussing my medical and personal history to understand where I was at and how I got there. My first infusion was Administered immediately after my counseling session. If I had to describe the experience to somebody it would be "one of the most relaxing and comforting hour I had in a very long time" At the end of the infusion I was given all the time I needed to recollect myself. I returned for five additional infusions but the magic happened the morning after my third session. Good morning after I woke and for the first time in over a decade I felt like my old self. I have energy, focus and a joy for life again. It was a transformative experience. The fog of my depression was lifted and I felt awesome. It has been six months since I started with Albany Ketamine Infusions and I actually feel better than I did the morning I woke. After my six sessions I have returned for two more infusions. If you are suffering from untreatable depression, post traumatic stress disorder, bipolar disorder or anxiety, don't hesitate, pick up the phone and call them. It was life-changing for me my only regret is not knowing that they existed. If it hadn't been for a random conversation with my pharmacist I still would not know about ketamine or Albany Ketamine Infusions. I'm not living with depression any longer. I still take a low dose of an anti-depressant but my view of the world and myself is completely different.

Had my first session arrived at 1:50 pm. Appointment was 2pm. Waiting in the waiting room…read more Reception area had a sign stating no receptionists working today. Please wait for your therapist to come get you. At 2:15 pm my therapist Kavitha called me stating we had an appointment at 2pm. I state yes, I've been waiting in the waiting room for 25 min. Told I'm in the wrong waiting area; that's not her waiting area. Well how am I suppose to know. It's my 1st visit. Filled out pelvic floor questionnaires on their website, then a portal sent via email, then the therapist reviewed my answers with her. Before I was leaving I was handed the same questionnaire and asked to complete it before I left. Then she asked me if I had sessions scheduled already. Now why would I schedule sessions when it was my first time being there and evaluated. I was referred there for pain management in my left side due to a fluid cyst. Therapist spent more time on my 27 year old c section scar area that has never caused me pain or discomfort. She wanted to do an internal exam. I declined. She said well maybe next session I'll feel more comfortable and will give her permission. I told her no; it'll never happen. I arrived w/o pain; left with chronic pain on my left side where the internal cyst is located. Not sure if I want to give it another chance. Gut feeling it's not for what I need. Started off either way way too many negatives.
