Polarity Therapy
Polarity Therapy
Polarity Therapy is the art and science of balancing the life energy within the body. Developed by Dr. Randolf Stone, D.O., DC, N.D. (1890-1981), Polarity is an integrated approach to treating the body, mind and spirit. Human beings are composed of sensitive energy patterns that constitute our physical, mental, and emotional dimensions. These patterns, described by the ancient cultures of India and China as prana, or chi, are also referred to as our aura. When the currents become blocked, we experience disease, pain, stress, lack of mental clarity, and emotional distress.
Polarity Therapy is gentle bodywork that clears and balances the body's energy field, restoring harmony and vibrant health. It works to reduce stress, anxiety, depression, inflammation, physical pain from arthritis and headaches, and emotional pain. It can increase physical energy, mental clarity, self-awareness, and vitality, help improve sleep, circulation, digestion, and organ function. Polarity is profoundly relaxing to receive, and clients typically experience deep shifts, physically, mentally and emotionally
​
Treatments are received while lying on a comfortable massage table fully clothed and tucked in with blankets and other props. Each session is individual to the client's needs and uses a combination of "massage like" moves, reflexology, gentle rocking, cranial sacral work, the connection of pressure points, toning, and quartz crystals to clear blocks and restore the body's energy field to perfect balance. Prior to the body work, there is always a thorough discussion of the client's needs and goals for the session. Clients typically experience deep relaxation, mental clarity, empowerment, energy boosts, a sense of well-being, releases of physical and emotional pain, grounding, and more

Distance Healing
It is not necessary to be in the physical presence of a client in order to perform a Polarity Therapy Session. The work can be done from afar, as it is the energy of the client that is being worked with. Many times, the work can be more powerful for the client, as the ego is not involved, and the distractions experienced by the physical body are minimized.
For distance healing work, I will have an extended conversation with the client before I begin the work. I will then do the healing work while the client is resting quietly at home or even sleeping. We can be on the phone together or can hang up after the intake. Following the work, we reconnect to discuss the details of the session, what the client experienced, and any spiritual guidance that was received.
Distance work allows clients from out of town, or people with mobility issues to receive Energy Healing work without having to travel or be inconvenienced.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
The Power of the Human Voice to Heal
Ancient traditions recognized vibration and sound as an important method for healing using music, chanting, prayer, toning, drums, bells, singing bowls, gongs, and wind instruments. It is known that sound waves move through water at least five times more efficiently than through air. The human body is made up of 50-65% water, making it a receptive vessel for vibration and sound input.
The human voice has a tremendous ability to be an instrument for healing. Vocal toning (singing one tone per breath) helps restore the vibrational pattern of the body, both physical and energetic, back to its perfect electro-magnetic field. As a singer, I use my voice to enhance the healing work. I tone throughout the session, intuiting what tones are needed in various areas of the body. Toning, also referred to as transfiguring, “ramps up" the work, clearing blocks more quickly, re-setting cells and energetic pathways, and re-establishing balance and harmony in the body and mind. Frequently during a session, other ancient sounds and songs come through me from the guides as well. The vocalizing in addition to the shamanic drumming and other sounds creates a rich vibrational environment for releasing, clearing, and re-aligning.

Polarity sessions typically last between 75 and 90 minutes, but may go longer depending on the time a client needs for intake, the work to clear and balance the energetic system, and follow up.

I love Polarity. I find it more relaxing than traditional massage, and on a different plane entirely. I schedule regular sessions as a health maintenance effort.
