Your Input is Important – You are Important – You are in Charge

In the world of energy everything is a clue to help heal you.  All your symptoms, feelings, thoughts, and life events are clues to understand why you are not feeling optimally balanced and healthy.  The more you can share with your practitioner, the more effective the treatment will be.

How you feel about the entire treatment experience is just as important as the actual treatment you receive.  I always wished to create a positive, relaxing, and fun treatment session for each person.

You are the one that knows the most about your body – you’ve had it your whole life!  If at any time during your appointment you would like the treatment to pause, slow down, or stop please say so immediately…no matter whom you go to for help.  You are in charge.

APPOINTMENTS FOR ADULTS – there were four key parts to an appointment:

NEW PATIENT FORM
Filled out and turned in at least 3 days before the appointment.
This helped me to fully understand all the areas someone might like help with – whether that was physically, emotionally, socially, spiritually, etc.  Then I developed a general treatment plan in advance of the appointment and fine tuned it when we were in person – yielding a better and more customized treatment.

ENERGY BALANCING TREATMENT
Custom Energy Balancing treatments were based on the patient’s feedback combined with my energy training and intuitive skills:
a)  For the energy balancing treatment shoes were removed, the patient remained fully clothed, and laid down or sat on the treatment table.
b)  After a brief introduction to the techniques small pieces of medical tape were applied to a few key energy spots on the body.  Then I activated other energy points with gentle pressure (less than the weight of a quarter coin).  Gentle pressure on key energy points is the main method I used to remove energy blockages and get their energy systems free flowing again.
c)  I found it most helpful if the session was interactive, so the patient let me know if they felt any changes at any point.  What might someone feel?  A heat or cold sensation, tingling, an itch, less pain in a painful area, or perhaps a picture or image might appear in your imagination.  Whatever the change is, it can help inform and guide the treatment.

EDUCATION
I liked to explain what was going on energetically during a treatment, this gave the patient a better understanding of their body and its energies.  Questions were encouraged through out the treatment.

TREATMENT STRATEGY
At the end of the appointment there was always a short discussion of next steps based on how the patient’s energies had changed through the treatment.

APPOINTMENTS FOR CHILDREN

Children are much more energetic than adults and so their energy systems change quicker.
A child’s appointment followed the same general steps listed above for adults, but the total treatment time was usually less.

For the Education part of the appointment, I offered to teach the adult(s) these helpful Qi Gong techniques to use with their children.:

1. Night Time Qi Gong Brushing

I developed this 1 minute Qi Gong routine to help children at bed time.  I use this simple technique with my kids to help them calm down, go to sleep faster, and sleep better.

2. Healthy Qi Gong Brushing

This technique is adapted from a Japanese Pediatric Non-needle therapy.  This technique takes about 1 minute to perform and can help children recover from illnesses more quickly or avoid an illness all together.  I have used this Qi Gong technique with my own children since 2014 with excellent results.
