What is Energetic Balancing?
Energetic Balancing is a contemporary form of hands-on, light touch energy (or vibrational) medicine developed by Dr. Niki Elliott to enhance wellness and restore balance for intuitive, empathic and highly sensitive adults and children.
Energetic Balancing balances subtle energy systems to facilitate your body’s ability to heal itself.
Energetic Balancing is based on the scientific model that all matter, including the human body, is an expression of energy. In energy medicine, all disease and healing starts in this vibrational energy field. Therapeutic energy therapy, such as Reiki, direct the subtle energy systems in and around us to facilitate health on many levels.
Energy Therapy can help to:
- Bring you into balance with your environment
- Clear blocks caused by stress or trauma
- Clear your field of energy that you are “picking up” from others
- Identify areas that may need balance or healing to further personal growth or achieve optimal success and wellness in daily life
- Help you manage your energetic health to prevent future imbalances or blockages
What is Energy?
We can’t see it, but we know it’s there! From quantum physics, we know that everything is made of energy, including our thoughts and feelings. Everyone has a unique energetic profile that transcends their physical body and includes their unique passions, destiny and even the story of their ancestry. Our behaviors, thoughts and belief patterns and various factors in our physical bodies and our environment can all affect our energy systems.
When your energy centers are blocked or out of balance, energy doesn’t flow well and various disturbances and challenges can result, including depression, anxiety, tension and aggression, as well as other diseases or illnesses.
Are You Intuitive or Highly Sensitive?
Energetic Balancing is ideal for empathic or highly sensitive adults who may experience sensory overload or who have difficulty aligning with the world around them. Symptoms of this can include frequent stomach pains or digestive problems, anxiety, fear of crowds, or other feelings of disorientation.
Sometimes adults have learned to hide or suppress their intuitive gifts and this has caused physical or emotional challenges. In other cases, highly sensitive or empathic adults develop illnesses or “burnout” due to the inability to regulate the energies they are taking into their energy field.
Energetic Balancing can help you learn to balance, manage and regulate your energy sensitivities for improved daily living. It can help you “dial down” energetic input to calm the nervous system, allowing you to more fully inhabit your body, improve your focus, increase creative ability, emotional balance and physical health.
What to Expect in an Energy Balancing Therapy Session
A typical session begins with a brief conversation, to discuss the challenges the client is experiencing at home or at school. This allows Stephen to connect with the client’s energy, and informs them of the areas of the energy field that need to be balanced. While remaining fully clothed, the client is invited to lie down on a comfortable massage table and relax. Initial sessions are usually 45 minutes in length with any follow-up sessions lasting approximately 20 to 25 minutes.
The session is similar to Reiki in that Stephen places his hands directly on the head and feet of the client to ‘read’ their energy field. Stephen helps the client shift into a positive, relaxed state to support their process of self-healing. Stephen also assesses the client’s entire energy field by moving hands held slightly above the client’s body. Most of our clients, especially young children, find this to be a calm, relaxing, and almost meditative process. It is not unusual to have a client drift off into a sleeping state.
At the end of the session, Stephen speaks with the client (or parent) to share specific details of what was found in the energy field, and check in with them to find out how they are feeling after the treatment.
