What is Polarity Therapy?
"ENERGY is the real substance behind the appearance of matter and forms"
Dr. Randolph Stone
Polarity therapy is an integrative energy-based therapeutic method developed by Dr. Randolph Stone (1890-1981). It combines ancient Ayurvedic healing and Chinese five element theory. It is based upon universal principles of energy: attraction, repulsion, and neutrality. The interrelation of these principles forms the basis for every aspect of life, including our experience of health, wellness and disease on physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels. Electromagnetic energy fields and currents exist everywhere in nature, including around the human body. The flow and balance of energy in the human body is the foundation of good health. When energy is balanced it flows freely and health is achieved. When energy is unbalanced, pain and disease arise. The goal of polarity is to remove obstructions and open up the natural free flowing energy around and through the body. This facilitates optimal balance and wellness on physical, mental, emotional, spiritual levels.
What to expect of a Polarity session:
A typical session usually lasts 60-90 minutes. The client will remain fully clothed other than the shoes. The practitioner may use soft touch, some rocking, as well as point specific touch to unblock the energy flow. During the session, the client may experience subtle energetic sensations, which are often sensed as tingling, coolness, warmth, expansion or wavelike movement. Clients are encouraged to tune in to these sensations. You may see colors, have deep insights, or enter a dream like state while fully aware of your body and surroundings.
Polarity Therapy can restore the body to its natural state of balance. Results can include profound relaxation, renewed vitality, new insights, and relief from physical symptoms. Be aware that emotional states and physical conditions may surface or temporarily intensify during or after Polarity Therapy sessions. This is because sometimes an energetic shift brings about emotional releases, which are often characterized by deep sighs, anger, laughter, fear or tears. Polarity Therapy works with such releases in a way that is both safe and effective for long-term health. Changes can be permanent and may happen instantly or may continue to develop over a period of days. Effects are cumulative and a series of sessions may produce the best results.
