Energy balancing / Polarity therapy

Polarity therapy is a holistic modality that incorporates several known practices to improve health. Developed by Dr. Randolph Stone, an osteopath, naturopath, and chiropractor, after a visit to India, this approach merges Eastern and Western philosophies. Polarity therapy practitioners believe that the human body is surrounded by an electromagnetic field through which energy flows. In essence, they see the body like a magnet, with a (+) pole at the top and a (-) pole at the bottom. When energy flows freely through the body, you’re in good health. When there’s an imbalance or blockage, it can result in stress, pain, and disease. Similar to reiki, acupressure, and other energy healing modalities, polarity therapy involves noninvasive practices (it also has no known side effects). During a polarity therapy session, you might experience a combination of healing touch, nutrition advice, massage, reflexology, energy work, meditation, affirmations, and gentle stretching exercises. (If this all sounds a bit like everything-but-the-kitchen-sink, well, it kind of is!) As an integrated practice that incorporates nutrition, exercise, and energy work, polarity therapy helps establish balance in the body.
