What is Energy Medicine?

Energy Chakras

Energy Medicine is the science and art of raising and maintaining balanced and optimal energetic systems so that our body can more effectively heal itself.

Energy, or chi/ki, is our body's life force. Our bodies are made up of energy centers (chakras) and energy pathways (meridians). When we eat healthy foods, drink plenty of water, minimize our stress levels, and exercise regularly, our body's energy will vibrate at a higher frequency and keep our cells, tissues and organs healthy allowing us to feel more joyful.

When we eat poorly, live day-after-day in stressful situations, and don't get enough exercise, our body's chi or ki vibrates at a lower frequency making us feel sluggish or depressed and eventually leading to physical and/or emotional dis-ease.

Reiki touch

There are many forms of energy work. Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" in order to raise the invisible (to most) life force energy that flows through us. Reiki was developed in 1922 by a Japanese Buddhist, Mikao Usui.

Eden Energy Medicine (EEM) was developed by Donna Eden and is based on Touch for Health (TFH) which was created by John F. Thie, DC (1933 - 2005). TFH and EEM both draw on over 30 years of techniques in Kinesiology as well as thousands of years of philosophies and sciences.

EEM and TFH utilize Applied Kinesiology (muscle testing) to pinpointed energy blockages and then correct (or balance) them through a variety of non-invasive techniques such as body movement, tapping, massaging, pinching, twisting, or tracing the hand across the skin along energy pathways (meridians). These techniques encourage the body's healing mechanisms to kick-in thereby activating the healing process.

I have made it a practice to assess my clients' energy systems in every session. This gives me some insight into their current issue(s). What I have consistently found is that the majority of my clients come to me with a variety of energy issues but the two most common are: 1) Their body is in "fight or flight" mode where the triple warmer meridian is over-active and robbing energy from other energy pathways; or 2) Their energies are more prominent in the upper half of their body and not flowing through the entire body in a balanced manner--they aren't grounded. Once I correct these energy issues, they immediately feel calmer, more grounded and focused. Now, the work we do together is to pinpoint the life issues that are causing the energy system issues and determine an effective healing solution.

As a hypnotherapist, it is important that my clients are grounded and calm before I begin the hypnosis. Energy Medicine helps prepare my clients for a more successful hypnotherapy session and oftentimes helps reduce the number of sessions needed to achieve their healing goals.

I make it a point to teach my clients energy medicine because it is important to me that they have the tools needed to improve their health and well-being.
