Energy Sessions

Mana, Prana, Chi, Qi, all terms for the same system, the energy system in your body. Much like the digestive system in your body, the energy system has several parts that play in to it, and much like the blood vessel system nourishing every single cell, there are pathways designed to nourish every atom of your being.

Chakras, Aura's, Meridians, all terms and explanations for the sub-systems and how these systems work. And, much like the
beating of your heart, we can explain what is going on, and much
of the how's.

Your nervous system works via electrical current. Your brain, is the center of that system. Doctor's use an EEG machine, electroencephalograph to measure the electrical surface resistance in the brain, or, in common terms, your 'brain waves".

Likewise, your heart contractions produce measurable electrical currents, which are measured by an ECG or EKG, electrocardiograph machine.

You, have an electromagnetic field around you. Pseudo-science has various tools to 'see' aura's, and visual psychics see aura's and chakra's all the time. But, most humans are content to simply accept acupuncture meridians because they are inside the body, have physical points with proven results, and the insurance company covers it. So, for now, the energy field around you is still considered woo woo.

So, how does that work, exactly, for healing?

The physical body is stored memory. "Write that to the harddrive scotty". All of the emotions, thoughts, beliefs that you decide to keep, are stored in the pyhsical body. Often in the brain as a memory, or as stress in the shoulders, or as hip pain when you re-enforce the belief "my hip hurts all the time". Your system responds, "ok, I can make that happen for you!", boom, constant pain. Boom, car accident after therapy because you got out of pain and that does not resonate with your chosen belief. Yeh, "The Secret" played out and working against you.
(Insert personal opinion here: The Secret, a movie which took beautiful ideas, removed the highest levels of integrity and tried to sell you stuff.)

So, recovery is more than just corrections on the physical plane. The emotional, mental, and spiritual planes need to allign with the recovery plan as well.

The energy body stores your emotions, thoughts, and beliefs as well. Sort of like a holographic mirror. Meridian flows become stuck, chakra's close, auras malform and discolor to reflect the you, that you are manifesting at the moment.

So, we use Doctors, massage therapists, and proven medical sciences to make the corrections on the physical level.

And we use Reiki, 'AKA Healing, acupuncture, acupressure, chakra balancing, and cognitive therapies to address the energy system.

"How" does Reiki flow from "out there" through the practitioner "into" you and work its magic? Quantum Physicists and Unified Field Theorists are working on that one for us. But, if it makes you feel any better, Christians have been using this same mechanism for hands on ordination ceremonies throughout their history.

So what is a massage with Michelle like?

I have been trained by the best of the best, in both massage and in energy healing. Before the client arrives the room is energetically cleared and a general intention is set. Once you are on the table, I enter the sacred healing space, introduce you into relaxation, and ask you to think about what you want from your massage today. If you don't know, just think about some of the common things "relax", "peaceful massage", "a nice nap".)

Often people report thinking of their favorite serene place during the massage, or they see energetic colors, or wander off on a meditative journey. Some take a nap (a high compliment when the goal is relaxation!) and some, just have a nice massage and go home refreshed, relaxed, more ready to face life again.

I set the space, and give the best massage & energy work I can, the rest is up to you, where you are that day, and what your body tells you along the way.

I am honored
to play a small part in your journey of healing,
on whatever level you decide you are healing today.
