Spiritual Healing

Spiritual Healing is the channeling of healing energy from its spiritual or universal source to someone who needs it. The channel is usually a person, whom we call a healer, and the healing energy is usually transferred to the patient through the healer's hands. The healing does not come from the healer, but through the healer.

The word "spiritual" refers to the divine nature of the energy, which healers agree comes from one external, invisible intelligent source. The healing energy from this source is available to all.

Healers see the body, mind and spirit as one interdependent unit and believe all three must work in harmony to maintain positive health. Any problem - be it a broken leg or depression needs the power of healing to restore the balance of the whole person. It is felt that sickness often starts in the mind, or at the deeper level of the spirit, and it is often there that healing begins. It can be used to combat serious illness and the effects of treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Spiritual Healing compliments conventional medicine by channelling life energy to the patient in order to help them recover from illness, injury or distress. Spiritual healing is now beginning to be recognised in the west but in the east has been acknowledged for thousands of years. 'Chi' and 'Prana' are two of the better known names for these energies. The simplest way to describe it is as the 'life force'.

Spiritual Healing involves lying in relaxing surroundings. It does not involve the removal of clothes (except for watches and shoes) and the need for hands-on touch to body is minimal, preferring instead to work with the energy, auric bodies and chakras of the client.
