Introduction to Energy Medicine

Energy medicine recognizes energy as a vital, moving force that impacts our health and happiness. Viewed as both a complement to traditional health care approaches as well as a complete system of self-care/self-help, energy medicine activates the body’s healing abilities by bringing its energy systems into balance and harmony. Based on an  integration of techniques from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture, Yoga, Touch for Health, Qigong, and Kinesiology. Energy Medicine can help reduce the impact of daily stress, release negative emotions, improve grounding, remove toxins, manage and reduce pain, and balance the body’s nine different energy systems. If you would like to sleep better, have more energy, deal with stress and pain more effectively and just feel better over all, this class is for you!
