Energy Medicine: The Scientific Basis

E1060 - Massage CE Program - 13 CE Hour(s)

Addressing a growing interest in the field of mind-body medicine and the role of natural "energy forces" within the body in maintaining normal health and well-being, this course presents scientific evidence that's relevant to massage therapists and bodyworkers who want to clearly understand and communicate the energetic effects of their work. The course text, written by a well-known scientist with a background in biophysics and biology, brings together evidence from a range of disciplines to provide an explanation for the energetic exchanges that take place in all therapies.

In this course, you will:

recognize ways human energy is detected and measured
describe ways energy functions in the human being
define matrix, signaling, and meridians and identify how they relate to energy in the human body
describe the validity and benefits of polarity, therapeutic touch and magnet therapy and identify significant related scientific research
define "silent pulses" and how they occur and affect humans
describe the validity and benefits of therapeutic entrainment, vibrational medicines, homeopathy and identify significant related scientific research
define the terms tensegrity and plasticity and how they affect human emotions and physical structure
identify how energy relates to and affects structural integration, joint alignment and release of toxins
analyze the electromagnetic environment and identify examples of electromagnetic energy in therapeutic applications
describe how the electromagnetic environment interacts with and affects the human being

Excellent Way To Learn

The course gave me the tools needed to communicate with medical professions on a scientific level, how energetic modalities work.

Dr. Oschman lends scientific validity to "energetic work" and "healing" through his review and explanation of research in this area. Of particular interest was the section on "electromagnetic allergy.
