Reiki Energy Medicine: Enhancing the Healing Process

January 21, 2020

Presenters: Sally Ledgerwood

Description:
Energy Medicine/Work is being discussed these days as if it was a new form of therapy for patients. Not so. Ancient cultures understood intuitively what scientific research world-wide is confirming today about the flow (or lack of flow) of energy in the body and how the use of energy therapies can enhance the healing process. We will discuss working in the energetic field; do some exercises with energy – “feeling” it, and discuss what Reiki is and how it can be learned and incorporated into massage.
