Energy Work uses gentle, meditative touch, holding, and subtle movements to convey healing and restore balance to the body. The Energy Work therapist seeks to channel positive, healing universal life-force energy to the receiver and works to balance subtle energy patterns in the body. As a result, the body’s natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum mental, emotional, and physical health. Energy Work is accomplished through a simple laying-on of hands and is facilitated in a meditative state of care and healing. The therapist becomes a conduit of universal healing energy to the client, sensing, assessing, and reacting to the movement, flow, and release of energies in the client.

Using Energy Work, The Therapist Seeks To:

• Bring Awareness Of The Body's Subtle Energy Systems.
• Balance the Chakras and Restore Harmony to the Body, Mind & Spirit
• Convey Nurturing, Universal Healing Energy to the Person
• Facilitate the Release of Stuck or Negative Energies that May Contribute to Physical, Emotional, Mental or Spiritual Distress.

The Chakra System

The word Chakra is derived from the Sanskrit word Cakra, meaning wheel or circle. In Hindu and other belief systems, a chakra is a wheel-like spinning vortex that whirls in a circular motion and is the center of life force or "vital" energy in the body. The concept of Chakras is essential to Yoga theory and many healing modalities.
