Meet Dr. Eddie

Dr. Eddie Vernon is a holistic healer and educator whose approach brings together energy cultivation techniques, sound healing, breathwork, and Qigong. He looks at the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual parts of health, drawing on traditional healing practices as well as modern medical science.
After seven years as a U.S. Naval officer, Eddie began studying natural ways to stay healthy and recover from injuries. That search led him to Pacific College of Health and Science in San Diego, where he spent four years studying acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, nutritional therapy, Tai Chi and Qi Gong, earning his master’s and doctoral degrees.
His interest in the connection between body, mind and spirit led him to travel to China, Taiwan, Ecuador and Mexico to learn from indigenous healers and traditional medicine practitioners. He also completed David Elliott’s Healer Training Levels 1–2 in Pranayama breathwork and was trained and certified in Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) with its founder, Dr. David Berceli.
Dr. Eddie has worked in settings ranging from Royal Caribbean and Carnival cruise ships to Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu. At Tripler, he treated active-duty service members with chronic pain, PTSD and traumatic brain injuries as part of the Army’s interdisciplinary pain management team. That experience deepened his interest in the relationship between pain, stress and trauma.
Dr. Eddie continues to study and teach meditation, sound healing, breathwork and movement. He enjoys helping people care for their health while exploring the spiritual side of life.
