VERMONT CENTER FOR ENERGY MEDICINE
Holistic, Energy-based Therapies for Body, Mind & Spirit
Reiki: 
Reiki is an ancient healing art that taps into the universal life force energy to heal the body, mind & spirit. The practitioner places her hands on various energy centers to do the balancing as the client rests.

Reiki is very gentle and relaxing, yet can be very powerful and profoundly healing. Reiki is very effective at relieving stress and reducing pain. It can also speed up the healing process following injury, trauma or medical treatments.


BodyTalk:
The energy circuits of the bodymind complex are reset by following a protocol. This is done through a form of muscle testing that allows the practitioner to communicate with the innate wisdom of the client. The practitioner places her hands on various energy points while gently using tapping techniques to integrate the balancing.

BodyTalk is effective for dealing with all levels of healing (physical, emotional, mental, relational, and spiritual). BodyTalk can be very helpful for clients with a specific health condition or mental-emotional focus. It can also aid with spiritual growth.


Brennan-Style Healing:
The practitioner draws on finely-tuned energy work skills and intuition to balance the energy system by laying her hands on various energy centers directly on and just off of the body. The session may include chakra balancing, aura clearing, hara alignment, and core-star healing.

Brennan-style healing may involve deeper-level work around core wound issues. It can be very helpful for those focused on personal growth, soul-level healing and spiritual development.


Acupressure:
Drawing on the Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine systems, the practitioner balances the energy system and bodymind complex by applying pressure with the hands and fingertips to specific energy points on the body.


Flower Essences:
Flower essences are used to address emotional wellbeing, soul development and mind-body health. They are subtle liquid extracts that are generally taken orally at the start or end of a session. Sometimes a home remedy bottle is prepared for the client to support the integration of the session.


"Energy Medicine: Energy is the currency of all interactions in nature. To leave energetic considerations out of the equations of life and medicine is to ignore some 99% of what is happening."



Dr. James Oschman, PhD



What to expect during a session:
Each session is unique and tailored to your specific needs.

No two sessions are ever the same as each person has a different entry point depending on his or her particular makeup and history.

A balancing session lasts about an hour. The session length may vary, depending on your needs at the time.

During the first session we discuss the goals you hope to have addressed and the basic principles of energy medicine.

You remain fully clothed during the session and simply lie face up on the massage table for the balancing.

The practitioner assesses your energy system and balances it by placing her hands on various energy points.

The practitioner is only the facilitator for the session. Your body’s own innate wisdom is the real healer.

The sessions are often very relaxing. It’s best to not schedule anything for right after the session as this allows the work to integrate completely.
