Energetic healing takes a holistic approach that looks beyond the physical to manipulate the subtle energy systems where the cause of the Dis-Ease can be located. Trauma, emotional and mental stress, false-belief systems, physical distress, environmental stress, and other blocks to our personal growth can be stored in the energy fields of our bodies, impacting our ability to function at our full potential. Energetic healing facilitates the healing process by shifting blocks in the recipient's energetic field, repairing and re-balancing the energy so that the body can return to its optimal level of balance from where it can access its inherent ability to heal itself. Energetic healing can also help identify “issues” before they manifest as pain or similar distortions in the physical body. It opens our consciousness to the areas needing attention to bring our lives into balance for maintaining health, harmony, and vitality.
