FAQs

• What is the Human Energy Field?

  The Human Energy Field is the field of universal life energy surrounding and permeating all living bodies. It is also called the aura. It's roots are in non-Western healing traditions. This force is called Chi in China, Prana in India or Spirit among Indigenous cultures. This energy is exchanged with the Universal Energy Field through chakras (wheels), or energy centers, located throughout the body. There are seven major chakras, each of which relates to certain body areas, organs and endocrine glands. A balanced, vigorous flow of energy through all the chakras results in overall health, which includes physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. If energy flow is blocked or diminished, this will manifest as un-wellness (dis-ease).

• What is Energy Healing?

  Energy Healing refers various holistic healing approaches that seek to balance the human energy field. Many types of energy healing work draw upon non-Western healing traditions, which teach that physical health and well-being result from maintaining a balanced flow of life energy (prana, chi, ki, bioenergy, etc.). Awareness of the benefits of energy healing is now increasing in the west, where it is currently at the frontier of holistic health care options. Some types of energy work growing in recent years include acupuncture, Reiki, reflexology, and others. Many structural techniques for manipulating body tissue, such as massage, chiropracy, cranio-sacral work, or Rolfing, also work with stimulating flow through the body's nervous system and energy centers. Some types of exercise, including yoga, Tai Chi and Chi Gong also work with balancing energy flow to achieve a sense of integration and relaxation while promoting flexibility and health. All of these techniques could be described as holistic approaches that link emotional, mental and spiritual health to physical well-being.

• What is the link between Energy Healing and health?

  In the energy healing model, health results from a free flow of life energy. Illness of body, mind or spirit occurs when we are out of balance or have blockages of energy flow. When energy flow is blocked or diminished over a long time period, the possibility of disease increases in the area of the blockage. The hands-on techniques of energy healing can help balance, clear, and charge your energy field. They can also help reduce energetic blocks that can lead to disease, and enhance your body's natural healing potential.
  
  The experience of energy healing invites you to explore an expanded view of reality, one where we are more than just our physical bodies, we are beings of energy and consciousness. In this holistic view, a free flow of energy yields physical health, a sense of well-being, a feeling of purpose and joy in living.

• Tell me about long distance work

  Brennan Healing Science Practitioners are also trained to do distant healing. Long distance sessions can work well when clients are too ill to travel, live a great distance from the healer, or would be more comfortable receiving treatment in their own environment. Typically, the healer and client will set an appointment time for the long distance session and connect either in advance via email or by phone at the scheduled time. Clients can prepare for a long distance session in the same way they would for a normal face-to-face session. Schedule an hour of time where you can lie down comfortably in a quiet area without being disturbed. After discussing the areas you wish to focus on with your practitioner, you will then lie down to receive the healing. At the conclusion of the session, healer and client then typically speak by phone to discuss the work that was done and follow-up care.

• How long is a session?

  A session typically lasts an hour and 15 minutes. It will often be a part of a sequence or series of treatments - depending on the mutual agreement. The first session will be longer and the client will be asked to fill out an Intake form which is then be discussed.

• What clothing do I wear to a session?

  The clients should dress in loose fitting, comfortable clothes made of natural fibers. One is not required to disrobe, or made to feel vulnerable in any way.
