Testimonials
I want to express my deep gratitude for the difference your treatment made in my life. It not only substantially enhanced my health, but my well-being and quality of life as well.
I am no longer fatigued. I can think clearly and stay focused. As a result, I can function
normally, as well as take steps toward achieving goals again – all of which I was not able to do prior to your treatment.I cannot imagine continuing to live in the physical and mental state that I had been in. My condition was worsening with time even though the results of the traditional medical tests I was given did not show anything that fell outside of the standard range. I was not clinically depressed but the debilitating lack of energy was causing me to feel frustrated, useless and hopeless – resulting in a downward spiral.
The treatment you prescribed has managed to reverse all that and I am not only grateful, but an advocate of Naturopathic Medicine.

Sweat Lodge Experience with Heather
When invited by Dr. Stills to this event, I had no idea what to expect but I was intrigued and open-minded because my state of mind was in need of balancing since the recent death of my husband. I was ever so grateful for this unique opportunity! I had purposely done absolutely no research and was willing to let it unfold as it was meant to be for me which, in hindsight, was a blessing in disguise since I was able to react extemporaneously and I truly absorbed each word of wisdom and feelings I received and exuded while being “in the moment”!
Immediately upon arrival, I was met with such welcoming energy and I sensed I was in for an extraordinary epiphany and, unbeknownst to me, a cleansing or purification of some sort, a release possibly of my sadness and loss and the courage to move on with clarity and grace.All of this came true, beyond my wildest imagination.
When I initially entered the domed sweat lodge, I was asked by Heather what my intention was…I went within and I knew instantly it was “balance” because of the loss of my beloved husband “Norm” of 27 years…so she sweetly expressed her sympathies and asked me to sit alongside of her on the East side for clarity! Ding, Ding, Ding…it was all becoming clearer to me already what I was in for. She welcomed all the others in after me so I got to see it unfold for others as the ones before me…she continued to speak so eloquently in a soft spoken tone, imparting her wisdom and gratitude for our Ancestors, Mother Earth – in the native tongue of Cree – in total darkness. It was calming and informative and I felt like a sponge in need of a long soothing soaking up of love and acceptance and guidance! I was meant to be here at this time with her and the others with an open heart, mind, and body…to release my aching heart full of stress and renew my soul…to be reborn! I even felt like I knew some of the words she was going to chant…I felt I was at home. (I had been told one of my prior lives was during the time of Geronimo and I was his friend trying to get him to trust the white man! We all know how that ended!)
I learned a tremendous amount of endearing qualities from her and her assistant, as well as the others…I cherished each and every word, every respectful honoring of what came before and what lie ahead…I was captive from my first bent-knee entry and quiet atonement and enlightenment of others as well as myself…I was grateful to be alive and on my healing journey with Heather and Dr. Stills. We had an opportunity to offer up prayers or offerings of gratitude aloud…I was going to speak and Heather took the wind beneath my voice and honored my husband Norm better than even I could – I told her with reverence and gratitude I was thankful for all she said on his behalf and for me and my children and grandchildren. Early in the ceremony, when she taught us the significance of East, South, West and North, I silently cried in saying “goodbye” yet instantly somehow was able to gather strength and courage and peacefulness and solace to move past my pain and see what this new journey will have in store for me and my family!
I also want to especially thank her for the special feather treatment she performed on my heart. I will be forever indebted to Sharon and Heather for this most wonderful experience. I plan on sharing this with other loved ones…Namaste

Being a body-mind-emotions integrative, N.Y.S licensed psychotherapist for more than two decades, when my husband was diagnosed with prostate cancer with a recommended treatment protocol of 45 consecutive sessions of radiation therapy, I immediately retained Dr. Sharon Stills, a brilliant, local naturopathic physician, as part of my husband’s cancer recovery team.
While he endured the arduous 45 session treatment protocol, the high-potency regimen of vitamins, minerals, de-toxifying footbaths and other holistic remedies and supplements, offered by Dr. Stills, kept his vital signs high, his physical energy balanced and his optimism strong.
I also use Dr. Stills as part of my own health care team. She has helped balance a long-term under-active thyroid…aided greatly in the painful plantar fasciitis diagnosis I received…and even spear-headed a successful weight loss program for me. In all her professional endeavors, Dr. Stills always demonstrates a warm, compassionate interest in the whole person before her. Her excellent skills as a naturopathic physician involve many areas of knowledge. In each of these, she excels. Her brilliant mind, high-level intuition, and outstanding treatment skills, make Dr. Sharon Stills an extraordinary healer.
I do not hesitate to refer Dr. Stills to any of my own psychotherapy patients who are looking for body-mind-emotional balance. Her treatment modalities are very congruent with my own and feedback about her services has always proved highly positive.
We are blessed to have Dr. Sharon Stills as a valued part of our Plainview healing community.
