What is Polarity Therapy?
“Polarity Therapy is the umbrella for all of my work.”
Polarity Therapy is a profound holistic health care system that balances life energy in the body. It is based on the five universal elements (Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth).
Polarity Therapy was developed by Dr. Randolph Stone, who was a chiropractor, osteopath, and naturopath. Dr. Stone traveled the world to discover different methods of healing and found that energy was the source of healing all diseases.
Polarity is a practical application of understanding that everything is animated by three energy principles that describe the way energy flows. When energy does flow properly, we experience health.
Energy starts at a (1) neutral point, (2) expands outward and then (3) contracts inward, going back to the (1) neutral source. Practitioners are trained to track this energy flow and, mainly through types of touch in bodywork, support the client in balancing their energy and regaining health.
