About the Marlborough Wellness Center

The Marlborough Wellness Center became a reality in October 2005 on Route 20 in Marlborough, Massachusetts. It is here where modern and traditional medicine become integrated. Where the practitioners are knowledgeable about the Western medical system and yet have found success with alternative medical approaches to health and vitality. We work hand-in-hand with you to ensure complete and open communication occurs between all your medical health practitioners. Each one of us is eager to help you live a more healthy life, full of energy and fulfillment.

  • Leanne L. Dias, R.N.
    Energy Medicine Practitioner
    Intuitive Counselor

    Leanne began working with the human energy field in the form of therapeutic touch while in nursing school in 1997. She became a Reiki Master in 2000, and her practice has evolved to working primarily with the chakra system. She is currently working part time as a school nurse in Natick and is very pleased to bring her alternative medicine skills to Marlboro Wellness Center.

    Energy medicine is used to speed the healing of injury or illness, impart deep relaxation, reduce pain, and improve the overall sense of wellbeing. In a typical session Leanne will assess the flow of energy in the seven chakras with her hands, a pendulum, or dowsing rods. Using hands held above the body, she will gently redirect the energy flow toward a more balanced state. Stones, color visualizations, and guided meditations may also be used to support optimum energy flow. Leanne is also a skilled intuitive, and will assist the client in identifying the mental, emotional, and spiritual factors contributing to their physical pain or dis-ease.
