Energy Bodywork and Polarity Therapy

modern physicians, like physicists before them – have begun to deal with finer and finer forms of energy both in the diagnosis and treatment of human illness”
-
Dr. Larry Dossey

The results of Polarity Therapy can be remarkable, providing:

  • deep relaxation
  • fresh insight into causes
  • release of inappropriate patterns

Polarity Therapy recognizes the body and its electromagnetic fields as one functional unit. Polarity techniques utilize knowledgeable application to realign, balance and recharge the level of energy flow for body/mind function. All body systems are influenced… from our nervous system to muscles, digestion and circulation. Improvements begin from working with the energy fields, our chakras and the aura, or electromagnetic field.

Congestion or distortions are said by many ancient and modern teachings to first occur in our subtle energy bodies. Today we most identify with emotional issues that cause us distress. Resistance, conscious or unconscious, to unpleasant experiences eventually manifests as undesirable patterns or aches and pains when not brought into our awareness for acknowledgement and release. The bodywork component of polarity therapy varies from deeper applications for loosening tissue to the finer touch of balancing energy flow.

The use of the five elements within polarity therapy relate to the five stages of matter density, the different qualities of energy movement and to form itself. As the elements are associated with specific types of emotional and physical manifestations, this format can readily detect and encourage adjustment of imbalances. Polarity Therapy has been aptly termed “a science that works with the person rather than the symptom”.

Polarity Therapy is one of the first western therapies to honour the influences of the energy body and understand its vital role in good health. Developed during the 60-year career of Dr. Stone, an osteopathic physician, chiropractor and naturopath, he added to his medical training and practice from experiences during his worldwide travels. From this, polarity therapy evolved to also incorporate various concepts of the Ayurvedic medical system that has been successfully used for thousands of years in India.

Sound therapy can be used to influence the vibratory rate of matter, helping to disburse denser energies. This effect can be demonstrated when one tuning fork in a room is struck and a second tuning fork in the same room vibrate in 'sympathetic resonance'. Extensive research had been conducted on these principles and in regards to the application on our body. For this reason, tuning forks may be used during an energy session.
