| Acupuncture: Originating in China 3,000 years ago, acupuncture is a system of healing based on balancing the body’s life force energy known as Qi. Qi flows along channels throughout the body, similar to the nervous and circulatory systems. An imbalance in the body’s energy may result in distress signals in the form of symptoms, physical, emotional or mental. An acupuncturist is trained to evaluate the underlying cause of a client’s problems or symptoms. Treating the person’s basic constitution as well as alleviating the symptoms is part of the treatment plan. Using thin, sterile, disposable needles, the acupuncturist inserts the needles along specific points of the meridian pathways to help balance and unblock the Qi. (Judith Brooks, Lilan Hsiang-Weiss) |

| Chakra Healing: Chakra Healing repairs damaged layers of chakras, restores their clockwise spin, and reawakens your chakra's vitality. Whenever we have a physical, emotional, mental or spiritual trauma in our lives, a corresponding layer(s) of one or more chakras can be damaged. Normally spinning clockwise, these layers gradually slow down and eventually, if not healed, will spin counterclockwise. This damage will also produce emotional patterns based on lack, due to a lessening of the life force energy. Chakra healing enables your chakras and emotional patterns to return to a state of balance. (Barbara-Lynn Freed) |

Have you ever noticed any recurring patterns in your life that really make no sense? That don't really seem to have any logical cause you can trace? Human beings eagerly damage themselves in an unworkable effort to help, heal, and say “I love you” to others of their kind. If you want to see where someone loves the most, look to see where they are the most in pain. We work to find resolutions that restore love & dignity to all members of a family system. While often paired with NLP, it is also useful as an independent modality. (Amy Calhoun) |

We observe our habitual ways of moving and we improve them not by attempting to do what we already know we can’t, but by cleverly coaxing our nervous systems to choose a more intelligent way. We show our bodies how to drop old habits of rigidity and inflexibility in a language it understands. The result is less shearing stress on joints in any of the demanding ways we choose to use them, whether it be sport, work or play. (Deborah Ackerman-Gross) |
