Synopsis

The following are some forms of body work including energy balancing ones:
Forms of Body Work
Body work has multiple forms. These various forms are different from one another. Here they are:
The better well-known form of manipulative body work is the polarity therapy.
In Dr. Stone’s mapping of energy current of the body, every side of the body has five current connected to the five elements – the fire, air, water, ether and earth.
The polarity principle applies when you use your hands on the body to enhance energy flow. In this therapy, the hands are placed on two sides of the body, creating two poles between which energy may flow. The expert has a direct experience of energy flow between the hands. In most cases, the customer concurrently experience changes.
The common changes include tingling and tissue relaxation. Thus, the therapy session may improve into a co-operative exchange of observation between client and practitioner. Through this, the client is given power to consciously participate in the healing procedure.
Energy Balancing Body Work
Hands-on bodywork is the center of polarity therapy. In this process, you have to wear comfortable and loose clothing. You also need to lie on a massage table. In most cases, each session involves some levels of physical touch, which may be gentle, light, steady and deep. It is designed to stir energy up, balance the flow and calm it down.
There are several specific session protocols concerning the aspects of human energy body. Some of these address the digestive system, nervous system, endocrine system, and lymphatic system. Spinal balancing can also be addressed both with light touch, deep structural work and harmonic resonance.
However, other polarity session protocols are more mysterious based on the chakra balancing, five elements, evolution, and involution. These protocols are devices that can be used if suitable for your session and system.
Even if the polarity body work aims to develop the human energies inside the body and balance the energies within the body, the principle believes that this therapy is more complex than others. This therapy believes in the presence of positive, negative and neutral energies inside the body of the patient.
The main goal of the body work therapist is to convert the energies into its neutral condition to guide the body help itself. Through this, the treatment would not create sufficient and satisfying results. This is the reason why polarity therapists emphasize the significance of these regimens before the therapy session.
