What is energy healing?

You don't need to be a spiritual person to receive an energy healing, and you don't need to intellectually understand energy healing in order to receive its benefits. This blog is for people who are curious to learn more about energy healing and the benefits from experiencing it or exploring it further.

Energy healing is an ancient and holistic healing modality that restores balance and flow in the mind-body system. Humans have been practicing energy healing for thousands of years and are using it today to complement conventional western medical practices.

Energy healing is complementary to medical intervention and should not be used as a replacement treatment without seeking further advice from a registered medical professional.

Energy healing subtly releases conscious and subconscious blocks and disturbances in the mind-body system (e.g. toxins and trauma). It is based on the notion that our bodies have their own innate ability to heal itself of many conditions and ailments. When we feel happy, relaxed and at ease, energy easily flows through our systems, through our meridians and chakras. When we feel stressed, confused or depressed our energy becomes stagnant or blocked. This impacts our long-term physical and mental health.

Energy healing is backed up by scientific evidence (quantum physics) that the Universe is made up of mass stored as energy which is vibrating at different frequencies. This includes humans. Indeed, measurements of the electromagnetic field around the human body are often used to diagnose illness and disease, e.g. electroencephalograms (EEGs) and electrocardiograms (EKS).

Different healing modalities

There are a huge range of energy healing modalities including acupuncture, reiki, qigong, pranic healing, reflexology, meditation, massage, and crystal healing. Energy healers only ever facilitate a person's healing process; they only channel energy - through intention and/or physical touch - to stimulate your own body's natural healing abilities.

Achieving optimal results

Anytime is a good time to receive an energy healing - it can help you to feel lighter, and more relaxed and balanced immediately after your treatment. However, to achieve optimum results from an energy healing, more than one session is recommended. It is advisable to drink lots of water and find time to rest and relax after each individual session.

Conclusion

You don’t need to be a spiritual person to receive energy healing, and you don’t need to intellectually understand the process in order to benefit from it. But it does help to have an open mind in order to experience the full benefits that energy healing has to offer.
