Energy Medicine
"Conventional medicine, at its foundation, focuses on the biochemistry of cells, tissue, and organs. Energy Medicine, at its foundation, focuses on the energy fields of the body that organize and control the growth and repair of cells, tissue, and organs. Changing impaired energy patterns may be the most efficient, least invasive way to improve the vitality of organs, cells, and psyche." - David Feinstein, Ph.D.

Eden Energy Medicine (EEM)

Energy Medicine awakens energies that bring resilience, joy, and enthusiasm to your life – and greater vitality to your body, mind, and spirit! Balancing your energies balances your body's chemistry, regulates your hormones, helps you feel better, and helps you think better. It has been called the self-care and development path of the future, but it empowers you NOW to adapt to the challenges of the 21st century and to thrive within them. 
Donna Eden incorporated techniques from yoga, tai chi, and acupuncture as well as many other modalities to formulate EEM.   EEM focuses on moving, balancing, enhancing, and restoring the body’s energies. EEM employs “energy testing” to assess how your energies are flowing through specific areas of your body and may help identify the techniques that will be most beneficial for you. These methods will lend themselves to highly individualized sessions based on your needs.  Self care is a foundation of EEM.  Your active participation in the session as well as outside the session will enhance your transformation.  
Certified EEM practitioners have completed an intensive 2-year training program.  Clinical practitioners have completed an additional year focused on a clinical practicum.

Pranic Healing®

Energy Medicine awakens energies that bring resilience, joy, and enthusiasm to your life – and greater vitality to your body, mind, and spirit! Balancing your energies balances your body's chemistry, regulates your hormones, helps you feel better, and Pranic Healing® is a simple yet powerful & effective system of no-touch energy healing. It is based on the fundamental principles that the body is a self-repairing living entity that possesses the ability to heal itself and that the healing process is accelerated by increasing this life force that is readily available from the sun, air and ground to address physical & emotional imbalances. Master Choa Kok Sui says "Life Energy or prana is all around us. It is pervasive; we are actually in an ocean of Life Energy. Based on this principle, a healer can draw in Pranic Energy or Life Energy from the surroundings."
Pranic Healing® requires no drugs, gadgets, not even physical contact with the subject. Physical contact is not required because the practitioner is working on the bioplasmic or energy body and not directly on the physical body. This energy body, or aura, is the mold or blueprint that surrounds and interpenetrates the physical body. It is the energy body that absorbs life energy and distributes it throughout the physical body, to the muscles, organs, glands, etc. The reason Pranic Healing® works on the energy body is that physical ailments first appear as energetic disruptions in the aura before manifesting as problems in the physical body.  This pervasive energy that surrounds, interpenetrates and sustains the physical body, also affects our emotions, our ability to handle stress, relationships and even finances.
Master Choa Kok Sui developed Pranic Healing® as a comprehensive System of energy medicine to improve the quality of our everyday lives.

Rebirthing

Rebirthing is a powerful yet simple integrative healing modality in which the participant uses a conscious connected breath to process issues in the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual realms of life.  What appears to be mystical change can occur by moving energy with breath.  The resulting expansion of consciousness that can happen as one comes to see patterns that inhibit growth as well as the experiencing of repressed feelings, allows one to shift into new ways of being.  In a practical sense, inner change facilitates outer development.  It is very helpful when one is suffering with emotional, physical, spiritual, and mental pain.
A session is typically 2 hours long. Listening and talking to the client to get in touch with where s/he is in life is explored in the first part of the experience, along with instruction on ways to do the conscious, connected breath.  
Next is breathing for about an hour.  In this time one travels inwardly on a journey of self-exploration and discovery.  Blocked emotions, limiting mental and often unconscious beliefs, spiritual experiences and insight, as well as multiple physical experiences can occur.  
The last part of the session is integration of one’s journey. This is facilitated with affirmations which can plant seeds for change.  One generally feels very relaxed with increased ease in breathing and presence. One often notices positive changes that occur anywhere from immediately to within the next month.

Reiki

When you receive Reiki you get an infusion of life force energy, called 'chi' or 'prana' in other cultures, which your body uses to promote healing on all levels. Our world is made entirely of energy. When this energy flows uninterrupted, there is balance and harmony within and around us, and we experience a sense of well being. By promoting optimal flow of energy within the recipient, Reiki is able to address physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual issues. The most common responses are deep, long-lasting relaxation and alleviation of physical pain, but anything is possible.“Reiki” (ray-key) is Japanese for ‘universal life energy', and is also a word used to describe this system of natural healing. This tradition was founded by Dr. Mikao Usui in the early 20th century and evolved as a result of his research, experience and dedication. Today Reiki is one of the most rapidly growing healing modalities due to the ease with which it can be learned, and because it is an excellent form of self-care. Reiki is not affiliated with any particular belief system. Instead, many practitioners and recipients find it offers tangible support to whatever religious or spiritual beliefs they hold. 
Anyone can enjoy Reiki treatments to enhance a sense of wellbeing in the course of everyday life. Reiki can also be used alongside other conventional or complementary therapies and often helps facilitate recovery from illness or injury.
If you have not yet tried Reiki, schedule an appointment today.

Somatic Healing

Somatic Healing is the Identification of body sensations and the correlation of these senses to our thoughts and emotions.  Each body sensation holds information regarding our well being and has an impact on our actions. Understanding our body sensations and the communication (‘body speak’) these sensations exchange with our subconscious, allows for us to pause and reframe our thoughts proactively. Positive thoughts initiate positive behaviors and will  result in satisfying interaction in all forms of relationships.  Using the practices of guided imagery/visualization, sound/vocalization, movement and reflection of the body’s truth will build inner confidence, heal unresolved issues, nourish positive well-being and desired transformation.
