Energy Medicine

Energy medicine (EM) is a modality of healing which involves channeling universal life force energy, or Qi, into someone’s body for the purpose of healing, balance, and restoring well-being.  There are many types of energy medicine, including Reiki, Medical Qigong, and Earth Energy for example.  Christy uses a unique combination of many techniques and energies aquired over years of training and practice. 

When energy of a higher frequency (healing energy) meets areas of “disease,” dysharmony, or imbalance, a shift occurs on many levels of one’s being.  Patterns of disease or illness tend to originate from other aspects of our being, such as the spiritual, emotional, or mental bodies.  When these patterns remain unaddressed in the other realms for long enough they begin to manifest on a physical level in our bodies as illness.  This is true for emotions stuffed away that lay in the body unprocessed and unaknowleged, for outdated beliefs that limit our growth and happiness in life, and for all the myriad of ways we ignore or choose not to manifest our highest potential as human beings.  It is my sincere belief that we are here in this life to learn about ourselves and to grow. 

Energy medicine is a way of accessing information that will lead you to understanding what you need to focus on in your life so that you may be your best self on all levels.  The outcome of this type of healing is different and unique for each person.  Your experience in an energy medicine healing treatment depends on what you are working on and working with at any given time, your openness to accesing other parts of yourself though other means besides a mental process, AND your readiness to do the work needed to make the necessary changes in your life.  Typical reactions to energy healings are a deep sense of peace and balance sometimes punctuated by moments of clarity, memories, visions, and release.  This is spirit-centered work that reaches far beyond our mind’s ability to rationalize results.

Services Offered

Energy medicine sessions can be done as a separate treatment or be combined with acupuncture.  When done separately, an EM session will last one hour.  The total length of the appointment is an hour and a half, leaving approximately 30 minutes for discussion before and after the session.   When combined with acupuncture, the EM is started after the acupuncture is in place.  Acupuncture typically lasts 30 minutes and and the energy healing will last 30-45 minutes as needed.  Appointment length is still about 1.5 hours, but is sometimes longer.
