Polarity Therapy
Key Conditions:
- chronic pain,
- accidents and injuries,
- emotional stress,
- life transitions
Polarity Therapy in an energy therapy that is an
effective form of alternative healing. Polarity Therapy
directly corrects imbalances and blocks in the human energy
field through bodywork, diet, exercise and self-awareness.
History
Polarity Therapy is a cross-cultural synthesis of healing
principles and methods that are interwoven based on the
universal principles of energy motion and dynamics as described
by modern physics. Randolph Stone, DO, DC, ND, spent his
60-year career researching, accumulating and testing manual
therapy techniques, dietary practices, exercises and stretching
postures, and principles of spiritual psychology in his
medical practice. In his search for a unifying principle
that could tie together divergent perspectives and practices,
he settled on energetic dynamics as the foundation of all
healing.
The two great ancient healing traditions of Ayurveda, from
India, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, are both based
on an understanding of energetic principles as they
apply to human health. Randolph Stone adopted these
principles, which he also saw in the then-emerging field
of quantum physics, into every aspect of his healing practice.
Since energy works in the triad of positive, negative and
neutral forces, he called his synthesis Polarity Therapy.
How Polarity Therapy Works
Polarity Therapy is based on the recognition that flowing
energy is the foundation of human health, just
as the crystallized energy of sub-atomic particles are the
basis of our physical world. What gives our body form and
maintains it in a healthy state is the quality of consciousness
we bring to our life. This includes the conscious thoughts
we harbor, our unconscious beliefs and patterns, along with
foundational patterns that govern the formation of anatomy
and the functions of physiology.
Just as our physical body has a specific anatomy of parts
and relationships, our energy body also has an anatomy of
moving energy in specific patterns and qualities. These
energy patterns literally form the physical anatomy and
physiology of the body.
Application
Through listening touch I assess the flow of energy, looking
for places of balance, along with excesses or blockages,
then apply corrective measures through skilled touch
to restore proper movement and balance in the energy patterns.
Since energy and form are two sides of the same coin, changes
in energy flow express as changes in the physical body,
resolving symptoms and restoring health. The restoration
of balanced energy flow also relieves the pent-up tension
of emotions, and re-establishes clarity of mind as well.
The human body is composed of complex
streams of moving energy. When these energy streams become
blocked or constricted, we lose the physical, emotional
and mental fluidity potentially available to us. If the
blockage lasts long enough, the result is pain, discomfort,
illness and distress.
