Front Cover
North Atlantic Books, 2006 M10 25 - 332 pages
Written in accessible language for bodyworkers and hands-on therapists, Healing with the Chakra Energy System describes the use of very simple nonsuppressive and nonsymptomatic techniques in which the cause of the disease process may be halted and disharmony within the body may be changed into harmony. Each chapter contains case histories and descriptions of how to treat many conditions, including muscular, joint, spinal, organic, and emotional. Based on the author's decades of clinical and teaching experience, this book represents a fresh approach to healing by tapping chakra energy.
