Energy Balancing
Chi Medics works with the energy systems of the body. I'll admit myself that it sounds strange - but the effects on my clients speak for themselves. Most fall asleep, or into deep relaxation within minutes and wake feeling calmer, lighter and in a better mood. The effects can continue developing for up to 36 hours
Discover the Power of Chi Medics
Classic Chinese Medicine at it's best
Chi Medics is a Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT) approved qualification.
According to Classic Chinese Medicine (CCM) Chi is not just human energy, it's universal energy - the building blocks of the universe. Chi is matter just before manifestation (interestingly quantum physics is based on a similar theory)
Chi in the Human Being
In the human being Chi is everywhere in every cell and atom. CCM classifies two types of Chi:
Organ Chi feeds the organs of the body, which when in balance can function optimally
Pathway Chi is moving around the body, providing essential energy. Theoretically it circulates through the pathways or meridians to integrate all the body's systems - linking all parts to the whole.
Imbalances of Chi
There are two types of imbalance, Yin imbalance and Yang imbalance
Yin imbalance or Deficient Chi is where there is insufficient Chi to do it's job. It is characterised by underactivity, coolness and emptiness.
Yang imbalance or Excess Chi (also called Stagnant Chi) is where there is too much Chi in an organ, meridian or acu-point and where the normal movement of Chi is impaired - Chi does not move through the body in a smooth and orderly fashion. Excess Chi is characterised by overactivty and excessive movement, heat, redness and inflammation.
Chi energy runs in pairs (Yin and Yang) and when treating the person, we aim to balance by dialling down excess and boosting insufficiency. Each organ of the body is associated with certain characteristics when out of balance - for example if Heart Chi is in excess this means heat and could show up as inflammation, dry skin, redness or dehydration. Heart Chi is also associated with self love and self acceptance and this Chi is paired with Small Intestine Chi - our small intestines are where we absorb nutrients from our food. So if someone had an imbalance in their Heart and Small Intestine Chi pathway they may not feel they deserve love and affection and may not absorb nutrients well. They may be therefore of very slim build and reject kindness towards themselves.
Therefore Chi Medics via the feet aims to work specific Chi Organ points to bring about balance for the whole person. This approach when combined with Reflexology has resulted in some of the most wonderful feedback from my clients. Why not come and try it for yourself!
