Energy medicine is based on the concept that there is an energy system that operates within the human body.
It is believed that the manipulation of this energy system can assist in every area of physical health. Energy and matter is the same thing; and if energy and matter are the same thing then every part of the body is connected to the other parts of the body.
Energy medicine dictates that the mind, body and spirit are interconnected and thus if one part is affected all the parts are affected. This is very different from mainstream medicine, which believes that the body is a collection of parts and that the mind and body are separate.
It’s Cost Effective
As the cost of medical treatment rises, energy medicine offers an alternative that addresses the root cause of illness and imbalance, rather than trying to mask the symptoms.
It’s Individualized
Energy medicine is geared to individual needs and can employ a variety of treatment modalities. Energy medicine practitioners ask the body what it needs rather than trying to force a prescribed course of treatment.
It Promotes Healing
Energy medicine uses the body’s own healing power to treat illness. Further to that, its main goal is to prevent illness before it starts. Rather than telling you what’s wrong with your body, energy medicine practitioners can help you establish health.
It Gives Hope
For people who have not found relief through conventional medicine, energy medicine presents an alternative. Many people who have been faced with discouraging news from their doctor have turned to alternative medicine of many varieties to seek hope. It is estimated that more than 80% of cancer patients use alternative medicine alongside conventional therapy.
Norman Cousins, an American political journalist, author, professor and advocate for world peace, used the healing power of laughter to recover from a fatal illness. The book he wrote about his experience, Anatomy of an Illness, continues to inspire many people to believe in the incredible healing power every person possesses within themselves.
We all have the power within us to heal ourselves. This is not a myth. It’s a fact!
The human body is a interactive unit. All of the body functions, which we were taught were separate, are really interacting and communicating with each other. These functions are controlled by each person’s biological computer.
Healing can be blocked when a person thinks too much and does not allow him/herself to feel. Energy medicine guides the person’s body to the potential to return to the normal, natural state of perfection, as the body was originally programmed.
