How Does Energy Healing Work?
Life is hard. Really hard, it turns out. We are all weighed down with busy schedules, managing relationships, worrying about money, and more. It’s not uncommon for us to feel overwhelmed with the multiple roles we play, so self-care is essential. Lucky for you, I’m in the business of self-care and my passions lie far deeper than beautiful skin; I offer my clients a comprehensive approach to self-care and love and this includes energy work.
What Does Energy Work Even Mean?
Before you respond, let me say this: Energy work is for real, yo.
I interact with too many people who look at me sideways when I mention I perform energetic healing as part of my practice and it’s a part of my journey to let people know energy work is an important and possible solution to coping with and managing your stress, depression, anxiety, or just general life stress.
Facials feel amazing and provide numerous benefits, and I want to also offer self-care solutions that go deeper than that.
Okay, so how does energy healing work? In a general sense, energy work is the subtle manipulation of the electrical current and energy that is produced in your body. Energy flows can become blocked in your body due to lifestyle, stress, diet, emotional disturbances, and many other reasons. These blocks can eventually lead to unusual mood swings and behaviors. We all know what it’s like to feel off and not be able to understand or communicate why… and I’m not only talking about a mood disturbance. Energy blocks can even manifest as illnesses or physical pain. By helping to release energy blocks on a regular basis, you will have more vitality and a stronger sense of personal balance.
Jin Shin Jyutsu Energy Healing
I am proud to practice Jin Shin Jyutsu, which is an energy healing technique that utilizes the same principles of Eastern medicine as acupressure, except that little or no pressure is applied. The literal translation of Jin Shin Jyutsu is Art of the Creator through man of knowing and compassion[D1] . To be more descriptive, Jin Shin Jyustu is the Art of releasing [D2] tensions which are the causes for various symptoms in the body. Energy blockages or stagnations will not only disrupt the local area but will continue and eventually disharmonize the complete path or paths of the energy flow.
Like jumper cables for a car, Jin Shin Jyutsu sparks the flow of energy to help restore proper functioning.
Combat Stress with Energy Work
Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of diseases are stress-related. Duh, right? While this concepts surprises no one, many people (too many, in my opinion) remain skeptical about approaches outside of medication. Jin Shin Jyutsu is an effective tool for managing this stress, which translates into:
- decreased anxiety,
- enhanced sleep quality,
- greater energy,
- improved concentration,
- increased circulation,
- reduced fatigue,
- and more.
What Happens During an Energy Healing Session?
It’s not even weird! I perform this work while you lay comfortably on a table. I gently place my hands on the parts of your body where the energy flows (hips, chest, etc.). There isn’t any manipulation or massage and you are able to remain fully clothed. Sorry to disappoint, but I’m just wearing my normal, professional clothing as well. No wizard hats or capes or anything. But seriously, the take-away here is that seemingly alternative approach to wellness isn’t an actual stretch for most people. It’s a very comfortable and normal experience.
I would like to tell you more and better introduce you to this helpful practice for managing your stress and wellness. Come talk to me if you are ready to try something different from what you’re currently doing to manage stress and anxiety.
