chakra balancing
contact us to set up an energy balancing appointment with kim.
a shamanic practice used for thousands of years, chakra energy therapy–like a similar body of work, reiki–is useful for many types of issues: depression; anxiety; grief; confusion over life changes; autism; multiple sclerosis; cerebal palsy; general malaise; a feeling of being “stuck” in a job, relationship, or place; sexual frigidity; sexual issues; and other issues.
underlying the physical body are several other “bodies” of existence. as einstein proved, matter is neither created nor destroyed; it morphs into another form. thus, physical blockages reflect in the body’s subtler form, the energy body, and energy “work” operates as a release of these blocks. as a result of chakra balancing, the physical, emotional, and subtle bodies can realign.
kim’s energy practice is based on the peruvian shamanic methods practiced and taught by alberto villoldo and jj gormley. she also follows the guidance of rose khalsa, a local shaman living in takoma park, md. kim is deeply grateful for these teachers, and also for her master teachers, don miguel and don martin.
how energy works
The seven chakras comprise the energetic field underlying the physical body; they correspond with the spine and its ganglia from head to coccyx. the chakras are alsodirectly correlated to the body’s meridian, or energy lines followed by acupuncturists.
in an energy work session, the seven chakras and their related meridian lines to help the client release built up toxicity in all layers of the body, primarily physical and emotional. She uses light touch, grounding at the feet, and gentle massage to assist this flow from head to toe. The session is intended to be as relaxing as physical massage, and often it can feel more physically and emotionally intense during and after the session.
