What is Polarity Therapy ?   

Energy fields exist everywhere in nature. Polarity Therapy is a natural health care system that works to create flow and balance in the human energy field. This is the foundation of good health.

Energy balancing is a central concept in many ancient and traditional health care systems, such as Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Mondern scientific research has provided new understanding of the powerful effects and health benefits made possible by Polarity Therapy.

History

Polarity Therapy was developed by Dr. Randolph Stone (1890-1981), a pioneer in holistic health care. Dr. Stone held degrees in osteopathic, naturopathic, and chiropractic medicine. He studied and tested health theories from around the world for over 60 years, successfully combining ancient and modern theories and techniques. ”

Dr. Stone taught that body, emotions, mind and spirit are interdependent, that each person is responsible for his or her own health, and that simple steps can be taken to improve wellness.

As tension builds in muscle tissue, it begins to interfere with the assimilation of nutrients and the elimination of wastes. Acid crystals build up in the tissues, and this results in pain and loss of flexibility. All these factors interfere with circulation and the tissue begins to resemble hard, dry leather.

Today, Polarity Therapy is rapidly growing around the world, setting high standards with its integrated, multidisciplinary approach.

In a typical Polarity Therapy session, the client and practitioner work together to address physical, mental and emotional energy blocks in a safe, supportive environment.

In Polarity Therapy bodywork, a variety of contacts are used to activate and balance the body's electromagnetic energy fields. The practitioner may also help the client process feelings and develop strategies for reducing stress and increasing wellness. A primary focus of Polarity Therapy is for the client to take charge of his or her own healing process.

Polarity Therapy techniques

Polarity Therapy utilizes four therapeutic techniques to uplift body, mind and spirit. These natural, self-guided techniques provide a simple, comprehensive method for maintaining balance and good health.

Bodywork:
The practitioner's hands assist the flow of healing energy in the clients body. The client rests on a standard treatment table, and the practitioner palpates contact points and patterns in the client's "energy anatomy".

Diet:
Polarity Therapy diets promote cleansing and longevity with fresh wholesome foods adapted to individual needs.

Exercise:
Polarity Yoga is a series of simple self-help energy techniques that create relaxation and balance.

Self-Awareness:
Practitioners encourage clients to understand themselves and to view the world from a positive perspective.

 

"Energy is the real substance behind
the appearance of matter and forms."
