Define Energy Medicine

Energy Medicine"ENERGY MEDICINE, ENERGY THERAPY or ENERGY HEALING, a branch of complementary and alternative medicine, holds the belief that a healer can channel healing energy into the person seeking help by different methods: hands-on, hands-off, and distant (or absent) where the patient and healer are in different locations. There are various schools of energy healing. It is known as "biofield energy healing", "spiritual healing", "contact healing", "distant healing","therapeutic touch", "Reiki" or "Qigong. Spiritual healing" is largely non-denominational: practitioners do not see traditional religious faith as a prerequiste for effecting a cure. "Faith healing," by contrast, takes place within a religious context.["verification needed"]Early reviews of the scientific literature on energy healing were equivocal and recommended further research,[10] but more recent reviews have concluded that there is no evidence supporting clinical efficacy.[11][12][13][14][15][16] The theoretical basis of healing has been criticised,[17][18][19][20] research and reviews supportive of energy medicine have been criticised for containing methodological flaws and selection bias[21][22] and positive therapeutic results have been dismissed as the result of known psychological mechanisms"Source and More Informationhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy medicineENERGY MEDICINE WITH DONNA EDEN"What is Energy Medicine?o The oldest, safest, most organic, and accessible medicine there is.o Potent techniques that allow you to participate in your OWN healing.o A powerful tool for self-care and health care professionals."Sourcehttp://innersource.net/em/"Right Brain Definition: "Energy is your body's magic!

When you care for these invisible energies, it makes your heart sing and your cells happy!"- Donna Eden""Left Brain Definition: "Conventional medicine, at its foundation, focuses on the biochemistry of cells, tissue, and organs. Energy Medicine, at its foundation, focuses on the energy fields of the body that organize and control the growth and repair of cells, tissue, and organs. Changing impaired energy patterns may be the most efficient, least invasive way to improve the health of organs, cells, and psyche."- David Feinstein, Ph.D.""HOW IS ENERGY MEDICINE PRACTICED?Energy Medicine heals the body by activating its natural healing energies; you also heal the body by restoring energies that have become weak, disturbed, or out of balance. It utilizes techniques from healing traditions such as acupuncture, yoga, kinesiology, and qi gong. Flow, balance, and harmony can be non-invasively restored and maintained within an energy system by tapping, massaging, pinching, twisting, or connecting specific energy points (acupoints) on the skin; by tracing or swirling the hand over the skin along specific energy pathways; through exercises or postures designed for specific energetic effects; by focused use of the mind to move specific energies; and/or by surrounding an area with healing energies.HOW DOES IT WORK?Energy Medicine recognizes energy as a vital, living, moving force that determines much about health and happiness. In Energy Medicine, energy is the medicine, and energy is also the patient:You heal the body by activating its natural healing energies (energy as the medicine).You also heal the body by restoring energies that have become weak, disturbed, or out of balance (energy as the patient).""
