Energy Medicine The Future of Healing : by Kimberly J . Davis

Due to the change in our political climate , there is much panic , concern and fear regarding the ability to afford rising health care and prescription medicine costs . It is a very realistic concern with the imminent danger of losing affordable health insurance knocking at our doors . Now is the time to take ownership of your personal health care needs and look at alternative methods and approaches to get and stay well . Many of these alternative approaches are ancient and have been practiced for thousands of years by indigenous cultures who believed that all healing was within themselves and the land . The true foundation of holistic healing is acknowledging the fact that the human body is designed to cure and heal itself , if you create the right environment within your body to keep it centered , balanced and free from poisons and toxins . The creation of this environment begins with Energy . Primarily healing is achieved by bringing energy into all aspects of the body – Mental , Physical , Spiritual and Emotional to create and maintain a state of wellness and balance .
What is Energy Medicine ? Energy Medicine refers to a broad range of therapies that have one thing in common . They all consider the fact that humans have an energetic system that supports and nourishes the physical , emotional , mental and spiritual aspects of the body . Energy medicine is both a complement to other approaches to medical care and a complete system for self­care and self­help . It can address physical illness and emotional or mental disorders , and can also promote high­level wellness and peak performance . Healing occurs through the activation of natural healing energies and restoring energies that have become weak , disturbed , or out of balance . Some of the more common advanced energy healing techniques and modalities include Reiki , Massage Therapy , Acupuncture , Yoga , Emotional Freedom Technique ( E . F . T ), Kinesiology , Qi Gong , and Sound & Vibrational Healing , just to name a few . All of these modalities of healing are available at healing centers , like the Journey to Wholeness Center , for individuals actively seeking an alternative approach to healing .
