Читать книгу Energy Medicine - C. Norman Shealy - Страница 45

This short summary of some of the more important historical aspects reminds me of the popular aphorism, “There is nothing new under the sun.” Almost all of the techniques currently considered part of Energy Medicine have their roots in these and other foundations that date back thousands of years.

Everything is energy. Energy is all that there is. There are subtle energies that we cannot, at this time, measure, but we can sense and sometimes measure the effects of most Subtle Energy.

In summary, the major foundations of modern Energy Medicine are:

• Prana and Pranic Healing

• OD

• Ayurvedic Medicine

• Acupuncture

• Sleep Temples

• Qi Gong

• Dowsing

• Parapsychology

• Paracelsus

• The L-Field (Harold Saxton Burr)

• Orgonomy and Sexual Energy (Wilhelm Reich)

• Hypnosis

Additionally, and to be discussed next, are these important energy-related techniques and procedures:

• Homeopathy

• Radionics

• Magnetic Healing

• Spiritual Healing

• Sound Therapy

• Crystal Therapy

There are no known clinics where all of these are used in a totally integrative way. Most alternative, non-physician practitioners focus on one or two approaches. A rare holistic physician might incorporate several of these techniques. Ultimately you, the patient/client, are left to make the intuitive choice!

Following is some historical background on specifically medicinal techniques and treatments involving the energy aspects of health.
