FAQ
Here are some questions I get asked a lot. Yours isn’t on the list? Ask me! I’ll do my best to answer it.
What do you call your modality?
What I practice is simply called, “energy healing.” About as straightforward as you can get.
Is this the same as Reiki?
No. While there are some similarities in how energy is viewed, Reiki is a different form of energy healing. A Japanese tradition of “laying of hands” in which “life force energy” is infused into the client, Reiki is a passive experience. Much like getting a massage, the bulk of the work happens on the table.
As a client of Elemental Energy, you are given a map of your energy system and context for how you process energy. During a session, your energy is clairvoyantly read to ascertain the types and sources of blockages (emotional and physical) that are causing you discomfort in your body and stagnation in your life. Once these imbalances are cleared, you are infused with grounding and revitalizing energy. After the table work, you are given “homework”: techniques to manage how emotional energy affects you. It is your personal work off of the table and outside of the sessions where your evolution happens. In actuality, you are the true energy healer.
Are you able to read things I don’t want you to know?
No. Any information that is sensed while working in your energy field is information that you are ready to clear. If there is something that you are not able or willing to share, I cannot even detect that it is there.
What is my ‘energy system’?
The energy system is made up of chakras, nadis, meridians and the auric field (aka. the aura or the electromagnetic field). Together these energy centers process emotional energy (yours and other’s) and access cosmic energies for you to experience and ultimately manifest in your physical body. Think of your energy system as one more ‘system’ in your body, such as the nervous or lymphatic systems, and like such will directly impact your physical health when there are imbalances. Elemental Energy focuses on the experiences and health of the auric and etheric fields; including the seven primary chakras.
What do I wear to a session?
Wear whatever makes you most comfortable. When you’re on the table, you are resting comfortably during the work, fully clothed (except no shoes). In most cases there is no reason to alter positioning. There are blankets and pillows should you want them. It is the most restful work you’ll ever do!
How many sessions do you recommend?
As every person is different, so are their needs when it comes to energy healing. To really get a good understanding of your energy system, how it operates and to build a portfolio of skills to work with, a minimum of three sessions is recommended.
Can I participate with energy healing if I’m working with a counselor/doctor/specialist/etc.?
Absolutely. In fact, energy healing should never replace the work of conventional medicine. On the contrary, energy healing is a wonderful compliment to therapeutic counseling, physical therapy, western medicine and the various modalities of alternative medicine. Think of it as another tool in your toolbox. Energy healing is able to increase your awareness and ultimately your ability to heal.
