Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET) in Fort Myers with Dr. Leah

What NET is

Neuro-Emotional Technique, or NET, is a gentle mind-body technique offered at Crown by Dr. Leah, who brings a background in psychology and mental health alongside her chiropractic training from Life West. NET is built on the idea that the body can hold onto stress patterns tied to past experiences, and that identifying those patterns can support how you feel physically as well as emotionally.

NET is offered as a wellness technique alongside chiropractic care at Crown. It is not psychotherapy, counseling, or a medical treatment for any diagnosed condition, and it is not a substitute for mental health care. If you are working with a therapist or counselor, we encourage you to continue that care alongside anything you do at Crown.

Dr. Leah joined the Crown team as the doctor who specializes in NET, and her combined background in chiropractic and psychology is part of what makes the technique fit naturally into whole-person care here. Rather than treating the mind and body as two separate conversations, NET gives patients a way to bring both into the same visit.

How NET helps

• Identifies stored stress patterns. Gentle testing helps pinpoint patterns that may be connected to how your body feels day to day.
• Supports physical and emotional wellbeing together. NET is used alongside chiropractic adjustments, not in place of them.
• Personalized to you. Sessions are guided by your own history and experience, not a generic script.
• Offered by a specialist. Dr. Leah trained specifically in NET and brings a psychology and mental health background to how she works with patients.

What to expect at Crown

An NET session starts with a conversation with Dr. Leah about what is going on for you, physically and otherwise. From there, she uses the technique to help identify stress patterns connected to how you are feeling, working gently and at your pace. NET is typically woven into your broader plan at Crown, alongside chiropractic adjustments and any other techniques your doctors recommend, rather than treated as a separate, stand-alone service.

Some patients come in already knowing they want to try NET, often after hearing about it from another patient or from Dr. Jarod Ward or Dr. Diego Torres. Others are simply going about their regular chiropractic care and mention it to Dr. Leah once they learn what it is. Either way, there is no pressure. It is offered as one more option among Crown's techniques, not something added to every visit.

Dr. Jarod mentioned a new doctor who had joined the practice, Dr. Leah, who specializes in NET (Neuro Emotional Technique) ... Not only did I feel a profound emotional and energetic release, but I also experienced a noticeable reduction in chronic pain that I've been carrying for years.

Who NET is for

NET tends to be a good fit for patients already receiving care at Crown who feel there may be a stress or emotional component tied to their tension or pain, or who are simply curious about a mind-body approach alongside their adjustments. It is offered as a complement to your care, not a replacement for therapy, counseling, or any treatment recommended by a mental health professional.
