What is energy therapy?
Energy therapy is an alternative practice of medicine based on the idea that every person has an energy field that closes the physical body. Energy therapy doctors believe that the physical, emotional and spiritual health of man depends on the free flow of this energy throughout the body, while negative emotions and health problems arise from blockages in this energy flow. The basic idea of energy therapy is that the removal of these blockages in the energy field will restore health into the body, mind and spirit. These can range in severity from traumatic physical injuries to smaller insults, such as less stress or even eat something that causes temporary disease. It is generally believed that a person with a healthy energy flow can deal with these minor imbalances, while a greater problem is more likely to cause energy to block even in a previously healthy person. It is assumed that these energy blockages are weakening the ability of a person to fight other minor insults, can begin a cycle of deterioratingnegative emotions and health problems.
Therapy by energy treatment can be defined as any type of holistic practice, which aims to restore the right energy balance. Most of these practices include medicinal sessions with a practitioner such as Reiki or Pranic Healing. Other people consider practices such as Qigong to be a form of energy therapy, because its aim is to cultivate Qi or the energy of life force.
Reiki is a form of touch therapy, which is assumed that the practitioner acts as a channel for the universal life force by touching the patient. This universal force acts as a healing mechanism for imbalance in the patient's energy field, leading to the release of the symptoms that have arisen from the energy imbalance. Pranic treatment involves similar transmission energy from a physician to the patient, but pranical healers transmit this power by focusing their concentration on the patient in absentTheness of touch. Both of these practices argue that they help with problems as different as stress, physical pain or real diseases.
In addition to treatment purposes, energy therapy is also considered a potential path for spiritual development. Many energy therapy experts believe that people contain chakras or energy centers, distributed throughout the body from the base of the spine to the top of the head. These experts believe that spiritual development and enlightenment can only occur when chakras are unblocked.
In the theory of energy, chakras can be blocked by psychological or physical traumas, resulting in various negative symptoms, depending on the chakra blocking. Several methods or balance of chakras are used to clean the chakras blockages, including mantra recitation, meditation, use of specific crystals or scents or listening to certain sounds. Yoga practicing is also considered to be a chakras balance method.
