Key Concepts

Healing

Integrated Healing practitioners do not believe that they heal their clients. Instead, they believe that they are channels to facilitate healing and that the healing is carried out by the client’s being.

The body is designed as a wonderful self-healing entity. Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons, it sometimes forgets what its optimal state is like, or cannot access that state without help. The practitioner provides that assistance.

An analogy we often use is that of a running stream of water; a tree falls, blocking the flow. The water will find its way around or over the tree, often taking a different path from before. In a similar way, in response to some kind of physical, emotional, mental or spiritual stressor, our bodies have to make compensations or adaptations, resulting in blocked energy. The practitioner helps the client to elevate their energetic vibrational level so as to be able to remove the ‘tree’, clean out the old ‘stream bed’ and restore the ‘water flow’.

Healing takes place on three levels in the person’s being: Cellular, Spiritual and Genetic. As Integrated Healing works holographically, balances clear dysfunctions and/or issues on all three levels at the same time.

Intent

Intent is a crucial issue in healing in general and kinesiology in particular. It is important for the practitioner to ensure that her/his intent is pure, based on Unconditional Love for the client and on doing only what is in the client’s Highest Good. And Highest Good means as revealed by the client’s being through muscle-testing and not, as is the case in many therapies, what the practitioner thinks the client’s Highest Good should be!

“Intention is the real power behind desire. Intent alone is very powerful, because intent is desire without attachment to the outcome”. Deepak Chopra

Physical Pain

Many people panic when faced with pain, or at the very least consider pain to be a bad thing.

In Integrated Healing, we consider pain to be a messenger, asking us not to do a particular activity until we sort out a related dysfunction.

It is our experience, and that of many people we speak with, that the site of the pain is frequently not at it’s source – for example, an unaligned spine may cause hip, knee or ankle pain (to name but 3 common areas.) Unfortunately, if you work on the hip, because that is where the pain is, relief will only be temporary at best, because what is being treated is a symptom, and not the root cause. In Integrated Healing we test the body to find the root cause of the pain and focus the healing wherever the client’s body tells us it needs it. It takes away the guesswork and any need for a prescriptive approach.

Web of Life

In Integrated Healing, we think it’s great that Quantum Science is gradually showing that, what native traditions have been claiming for millennia about energy, about how everything is connected, and about healing, is true!

For example, long before David Bohm started to write about the holographic nature of the universe, a concept that Quantum Science has adopted and developed further, the Hopi Indians believed that all of life was interconnected. Echoing beliefs in early China and in Buddhism, the Hopi believed that all beings were connected to each other and that to hurt another person was to hurt yourself. Others have called this the ‘Divine Matrix’ (Gregg Braden), ‘The Cosmic Lattice’ (Peggy Dubro), The Field etc.

Modern science is beginning to demonstrate not just how everything is indeed interconnected, but the implications of that interconnectedness, in a number of ways:

The Theory of Entanglement shows that once 2 molecules have been in contact with each other, they continue to influence each other even after being separated.

Dr Cleve Baxter demonstrated that a DNA sample taken from a volunteer’s mouth continued to respond to the volunteer’s emotional state, even when the sample was 300 miles away!

In Integrated Healing, we view those two examples as explaining from a scientific perspective, how the energetic cords that are formed between people can continue to exert an effect on them long after the people are no longer together.
