Energy Medicine is the group of modalities practiced to increase people’s feelings of vitality and well-being by interacting with the energy field that surrounds their physical body. Phrases such as Chakras, Energy Medicine, Energy Healing, and Reiki, are all becoming more commonly spoken when discussing wellness.  This is incredibly refreshing because we are much more than a physical body or a diagnosis. We are human beings, fully energetic and vibrant, and more often people are seeking to recover, enhance, and maintain their health and well-being by experiencing modalities that integrate their energetic and physical bodies.

With advanced equipment, the National Institute of Health has extensively studied the existence of the human biofield. However, the use of Energy Medicine for wellness can be traced back to ancient cultures.  These wellness methods aren’t new, and in fact, may actually be considered one of the oldest and most enduring forms of healing.

The foundation of my practice utilizes techniques from the Healing Touch program, and I have also received advanced training from Energy Medicine Specialists.  Energy Medicine practitioners use hand gestures, either gently on energy centers of the body, or above the body, to restore and balance the energy system, placing the client in a position to self-heal.

Energy Medicine is administered in a variety of settings, including hospitals, nursing homes, hospice facilities, and private practices around the world. It is also used to support a variety of conditions, such as cancer treatment, death and dying support, immune system function, pain, pre-operative and post-operative care, stress reduction, anxiety relief, sleep disorders, and trauma recovery.

In our work together, we will identify and explore the energetic patterns that burden our systems, causing us to feel heavy, weighed down – diminishing our vitality. We will also work together to clear and balance those congested energy patterns, bringing balance and rejuvenated energy to the physical and energetic fields.

During a treatment session, the client typically lies on a massage table fully clothed. A session can be administered while seated as well. The techniques used are gentle and non-invasive. The practitioner uses their hands to influence the energy field, and may place their hands gently either on the energy centers of the body, or above the body, to clear congestion and balance and energize the biofield.
