What is Holistic Healing?
Holistic healing means that the treatment for imbalances comes from choosing to live a more balanced lifestyle. The difference between holistic healing and alternative medicine, complementary medicine, and integrative medicine is that physical health is not necessarily the main focus.
Holistic or "wholistic" healing addresses all parts of the individual, not just the physical aspect of a person where manifested illnesses are most apparent. Holistic healing is not intended to serve as a band-aid or a one time fix. It is an ongoing journey of discovery in search of more answers and ultimately; living better, being healthier, and striving for wholeness.
Holistic healing is really a lifestyle approach. The holistic approach goes far beyond the Mind-Body connection of finding and maintaining wellness. Overall wellness AND "wholeness" is highly valued. All parts of a person's life (physical healing, mental health and wellness, emotional well-being, and spiritual beliefs and values) are considered. Taking a holistic approach involves seeking the tools that will help us attract our desires and find personal power. |

What is Spirtual Healing?
Spiritual healing is a form of prayer, healing meditation or laying on of hands that has been practiced in virtually every known culture. Prayers and rituals for healing and empowerment are part of most religions. Reports of folk healers are familiar in legend, the Bible, anthropological studies of traditional cultures, the popular press and more recently from Scientific research. Spiritual healing is defined as a systemic, purposeful intervention by one or more persons aiming to help another living being (person, animal, plant or other living being) by means of focused intention, hand contact or passes to improve their condition.
Spiritual healing is brought about without the use of conventional energetic, mechanical or chemical interventions. Some healers attribute the Empowerment or healing to God, Christ, other "Higher Powers", universal forces, biological healing energies residing in the healer, psychokinesis (mind over matter), or self healing powers latent in the Client. Some examples of spiritual healing include: Reiki, Healing Touch, Energy Medicine, Polarity Therapy, Qigong, SHEN Therapy,Tai Chi, Orgone Therapy, and Shamanism. The term spiritual healing is sometimes replaced with intuitive healing, mental healing, psychic healing, faith healing, bio-energy healing, love energy, chi, Astral Light, Orgone energy, or Prana.

What is Alternative Medicine
In 2002, the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) Section staff of the National Library of Medicine classifies alternative medicine under the term complementary therapies. This is defined as:
Therapeutic practices which are not currently considered an integral part of conventional allopathic medical practice. They may lack biomedical explanations but as they become better researched some, such as physical therapy, diet, and acupuncture, become widely accepted whereas others, such as humors or radium therapy, quietly fade away, yet are important historical footnotes. Therapies are termed as Complementary when used in addition to conventional treatments and as Alternative when used instead of conventional treatment.
The National Library of Medicine's previous definition was an unrelated group of non-orthodox therapeutic practices, often with explanatory systems that do not follow conventional biomedical explanations and non-orthodox therapeutic systems which have no satisfactory scientific explanation for their effectiveness.
Alternative therapies include, but are not limited to the following disciplines: folk medicine, herbal medicine, diet fads, homeopathy, faith healing, new age healing, chiropractic, acupuncture, naturopathy, massage, and music therapy.
Studies suggest these therapies are sought out by individuals that have acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, arthritis, cancer, back pain, and other medical conditions.
What is Ener-Chi Medicine
The name Ener-Chi symbolizes the integration of two systems of healing traditions. Alternative healing practices are based on the belief that the human body consists of an energy system. It is believed that this energy, or chi (pronounced chee) as it is referred to by the Chinese, is the essence that circulates throughout our bodies and contributes to our health and vitality.
Western traditional healing is based on the belief that all activities of the body require energy and all needs of the body are met by consuming food and converting it to energy. At our Ener-Chi Sessions provide your body, mind and spirit with the food it needs to support you through the stress of every day life.
